Hey Josh...
I too was in a similar situation. My pledge class was held over to the spring, and my big sister left for study abroad, before I got my letters and before she recieved her paddle, they also play a big part in initiation. I know how you feel completely! Anyway, I lucked out because my big had another little and she stood in. It may not be the same, but (if you have other "family" members) or a person in the fraternity who you would consider to be close to a big, have them stand in for your big bro. I'm sure that person would be more than happy to oblige. It helped a great deal because I was really bummed that she couldn't be there. I presented my paddle to my "twin" and I kept it until my big came back. As far as letters go, I'm sure your big bro won't forget about you when you come back, but at least you get to pick what you want! Treat yourself. Decide on something meaningful to you that you would like to do for your future little bro and make it a tradition!

I hope your initiation is wonderful!
