Guest guest Posted August 9, 2004 Report Share Posted August 9, 2004 I have been reading post but unable at this time to respond. Two weeks ago my wonderful brother died. He was only 49. Four and half years ago he received at heart transplant, and two weeks ago he died. He was a beautiful and wonderful person. He lived life to the fullest and brought joy to everyone who knew him. We were very close, he was with me when I had the two stomach surgeries. Smoking ruined his own heart and he was unable to give it up. I use to get mad at him for not stopping smoking. Now I believe he just couldn't do it. We knew he didn't have much time. In November he had suffered a heart attack and was told there wasn't a lot of time left. Still it didn't matter that we knew that, you think they are going to come through with a miracle. His death was peaceful and quiet, just as they said it would be. He was in the hospital and just stopped breathing. They said there would be no pain and there wasn't. He was so young to leave us. I remember the day my mom brought him home from the hospital. I was eight and thought he was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen. That never changed he was wonderful. I just thought I would share this today. I was sitting here thinking about him. The last thing he said to me was, " I love you, and I will hold that in my heart forever. Lynn (MeMom) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
