I lost my nephew March 27th 2004 due to medical negligence. My siter was 22 weeks pregnant when her doctor failed to diagnose pre term labor and sent her home in "fals labor." The only advice that I can give you as to how you can provide support to your sister is to be strong when you are around her, attend any memorial functions with her, and if she needs a shoulder to cry on then be there for her. I know how debilitating it was when I lost my nephew. I felt as if my world was falling apart. As if I was in a dream and none of it was real. And, I still feel that way. I still miss my nephew. After a miscarriage in 2003, and my nephew's death in 2004 I have not been the same person as I was before those tragic events took place, but as and mother/aunt etc would say, "I would never change a thing because I was lucky to have been a part of their life regardless of how long they were with me." I hope this helped. This is something that you have to learn as you go. Time eases the pain, but the wound will never heal.
