On August 13th, after a month long ICU stay, my brother passed away. 😭 He had fought for 46 years to be the best person and role model he could be despite his poor health. He never complained. Not one time. The only question he had was not understanding why so many people harm themselves with drugs/alcohol/etc or want to kill themselves when he was fighting so hard every day of his life to stay alive? He was a very hard worker and had a very successful career, but stress was not his friend and he always had a lot of stress that he put on himself trying to do his best. I find comfort in knowing he is in Heaven with our Mama.
Thank you to everyone who took time to respond to my questions. I love and miss him so much.

I am so sorry you lost your brother at such a young age! Sending hugs your way.
Please remember his successes and not so much his struggles.

@jld82 so heartbreaking. It’s clear you were a loving and devoted sister, such a gift to him all these years. He sounds like an extraordinary person, accomplishing so much despite his many health challenges. May we all find that perseverance of mind and spirit on our own journeys. What a blessing your brother was to you, and you to him. Take care of yourself in this time of unimaginable grief. Losing those we love the most is probably one of the hardest things any of us must endure. 🙏❤️
