I don't know the purpose of making this
post.....Perhaps someone will see it who
needs to:
i buried my much loved brother sunday.
He had a heart attack on the 17th of
september. I thought he was recovering
well, as did his doctor....However, I have
found that to recover from a serious heart
attack the stars must line up just right.
He developed a form of yeast infection in
his mouth and throat that wasn't caught
early....That caused him to not be able to
get needed nutrition; his kidneys started
failing.
I returned home to help him recuperate.
I was going to bring him back to my home.
Now he is gone. I can't sleep
remembering how sad he was. I can't
remember a phone call I had with him that
I didn't ask: will you go to see a doctor
for me? He would always tell me he was
fine. My brother just turned 62; he did
not have insurance. He had a little
money in the bank that he wanted to leave
his daughter and grandchildren. Now they
have nothing.
To anyone out there who knows it is time
to go for a full heart checkup ....Please
just do it, you don't want your loved ones
to feel the way I do tonight. I loved my
big brother with all my heart. Now all
my family of origin is gone. I have my
own big, loving family. However, no one
could ever replace my brother. Please
think of your family.

You are right. No one can ever be
replaced. I think a lot of times people
ignore their gut feelings when they think
something is seriously wrong. We need to
listen to our bodies. It will tell us
when something is wrong.

I am sorry to hear about your brother.
My thoughts are with you.
