Demi Lovato's Sister Shares A Sweet Tribute To Her

The singer's younger sister has shared a touching Instagram post to mark her birthday.

Demi turned 26 yesterday, weeks after she was hospitalised following a suspected overdose and now Madison De La Garza (who you may recognize as Juanita from Desperate Housewives) has taken to Instagram to say how thankful she is that Demi is still here and that she's able to wish her a happy birthday.

today could have been one of the worst days of my life, but instead i get to spend it thanking God, the incredible doctors, demi's team, and everyone across the world who offered their support - without all of these people i wouldn't have my big sister anymore. i've been thinking about how i wish that everyone could see the silly little things that she does, like how her nostrils move when she says certain words and when she brushes my hair behind my ear when i'm trying to sleep, because those are the things i'm thankful for today. they seem so small, but those little things make up my sister - not a singer, not a celebrity, and definitely not what she's been described as in the media - she's a daughter, a friend, and my big sister... and i am so, so thankful that i can tell her happy birthday. #happybirthdaydemi ❤️
