The bond between siblings is unique and when a sibling dies, the loss can be challenging. Little research has been conducted on sibling bereavement and continuing bonds through afterdeath communication, where the deceased's presence is still sensed. In this qualitative study, 18 participants responded to an electronic questionnaire. Narrative thematic analysis of the responses revealed three types of bond: strong continuing and transforming; supervisory spiritual; and detached affirmative bonds. The findings show that the bereaved siblings' bonds with their deceased siblings changed. In conclusion, the deceased sibling was relocated in a way that was comprehensible to the bereaved sibling, which affirmed the latter's sense of meaningfulness.</p>","PeriodicalId":74338,"journal":{"name":"Omega","volume":" ","pages":"302228251366844"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144805418","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
