My brother died 50 years ago. It was traumatic for all of us at the time, but we eventually recovered. My mom fell apart and never recovered. Completely changed. My dad held the family together and insisted that we keep the traditions going - everyone come home on Christmas, Thanksgiving and Easter; send the family Christmas card out - a family portrait - there was only one year it didn't get sent out and that was the year my brother died. He started sending them out in 1938 - 2 years after my older brother and sister were born. I can't imagine losing a child either. But I wouldn't turn on the ones that were left behind, which is what my mother did. She made our lives miserable and continued right up to the point that the dementia took over and she finally forgot.
