The sister I studied with isn't much older than me, and yes she is still in. I had a call from her when I first started missing meetings regularly to see what is wrong. I expect she might try to contact me again soon, and I am not looking forward to that at all. We have been good friends for so long, I think that will be the hardest thing for me, telling her I no longer want to be a jw, but it has to be done.
