Is she still considered my sister?
So my mom had a miscarriage before I was born, she was almost 20 weeks before she sadly passed away. Would she still be considered my sister, be on documents, etc, etc..

No. She was never a she, never a person. You mom was likely to be able to tell that it was a female but, unless it was born, it was never a person. If was born at term or near to term and stillborn (born dead), then it would be considered a person, although born dead. In the case of a miscarriage, it was something that just did not make it to an age that would even have been considered as a person.

Your mother needs to acknowledge this fact as part of her health history. Whether you decide to is entirely up to you.
