I tell them to ask him.At times he's a pain in the arse - he's really fussy and wants everything in its place. We still shout and swear at each other, but I wouldn't have him any other way Being with him makes me feel good I couldn't ask for a better brother He stole my line - I love him to death.. Because of his head injury I prepared myself for a completely different person, but I've got my brother back We're so lucky as a family. Mentally he's the same, he's just got a problem with his co-ordination and slurs when he talks if he's tired.I don't promote the fact that I'm Eddie Kidd's sister, especially since the accident, because people always ask about it and it gets tiresome A lot of people don't understand the situation I don't want sympathy, and he doesn't need it He's quite happy. So I put him in my car and we went for an ice-cream in the park. My mum used to ask me how I did it.In the March after the accident he was really at a low ebb It was the only time he complained that he wasn't happy. I remember my mum and dad saying: "Eddie's got severe brain damage, he could be like that for the rest of his life." But I wouldn't listen to them.
They would be there all day with him and get the same response, and then I would turn up and he would start laughing. Every Saturday, there used to be a crowd of girls outside the house.Before the accident, he used to come to our house at midnight with a bottle of wine We would sit up chatting till four in the morning. When he had his accident, nobody knew whether he would walk or talk again I just wanted to feel some of his pain for him. I'm such a positive person I always thought he would come through it.
He bought me a motor-bike when I was six and taught me how to jump He used to really spoil me. He bought me loads of sweets when he babysat for me, and then as he got more and more famous he would give me so much money My mum said he ruined me. He always came back from America with a big case full of stuff for me - roller skates, cowboy boots, denim jackets. Everyone became my friend from a very early age because they wanted to get to know my brother, particularly the women I didn't mind. I love her to death.Sarah:WHEN EDDIE first started jumping, I couldn't watch it, then I found it really exciting.
