@austin_towle: From Sydney’s Celebration of Life yesterday. I debated posting this as it is deeply personal to me. I miss Sydney so much. Sorry I haven’t been posting on Tik Tok much. Just keep swimming.

Austin, I just watched the video of your speech at Sydney’s celebration of life, and I felt compelled to reach out. Witnessing your raw, honest grief broke my heart, but it also showed just how deeply you loved her. You poured your entire soul into honoring her, and even through your tears, your strength as her brother shone brightly. Please don't ever feel the need to hide or apologize for that pain; seeing how much you hurt only proves the beautiful, irreplaceable bond you two shared. You have been such an incredible brother to Sydney, protecting her, fighting for her, and keeping her legacy alive. Sydney’s message of kindness and empathy is something the world will never forget, because you and your family continue to reflect it so beautifully. Please take all the time you need to grieve, lean on those who love you, and remember that you carried her through the hardest moments with absolute grace. Sending you and your mom so much love and strength.

What a force of nature your family is. The three of you shared something so special and that unique energy has reached all ends of the earth. It is an honour to live the rest of our lives out for Syd and for those we have lost. Till we all meet again. 🌊

Oh Austin, your speech broke my heart but also brought a smile to my face hearing more about Syd. What an immense amount of courage it takes to get up there and bare your soul in the midst of your grief. I think of you and your mom often. Just keep swimming

Austin, that was such an incredibly touching way to honour Sydney. She would be beyond proud of you, especially for sharing it here with us as well. I think of you and your family often, and in particular, of Sydney whenever I’m facing incredibly challenging times. Her resilience and positivity often helps me push through times I otherwise feel like I didn’t have the courage to. Whether you know this or not, by continuing to share these moments with us, you are giving all of us a little bit of Sydney back. You have just as bright of a light as she did and I’m so grateful she has given you the courage to share it with us. I know you likely feel incredibly lost right now, I can’t even imagine it. But, as Sydney always said, just keep swimming and you’ll be okay 🩵 we’re all here to support you regardless, even all the way across the world in Australia 🇦🇺 sending you endless light and love and gratitude for keeping your beautiful sister’s legacy alive

The inflection when you say “um” in tears is just like Sydney did. Random I know but you hold pieces of each other

I am so impressed with your ability to speak so warmly about Sydney without losing it. It cried the entire time. She touched me daily and made me appreciate each day to the fullest. I am so impressed with both of you.

Beautifully said Austin. I hope that there is a way that Sydney can send you small signs from time to time letting you know she is okay and sees all you will do in your life. 🫶🏼❤️

At the NIH this week for a clinical trial and scans. She has been on my mind more than once while here. She left her mark on many people. What a beautiful soul to have for even a moment on this earth. ❤️
