It has happened. I have lost my brother. My heart is broken in what seems like a million pieces. I loved him so much!
I remember when he was a baby and I would give him his bottle while Mom was fixing supper. He would pull my hair and I couldn't get to him with one hand on the bottle and one arm holding him.
Joe was a very talented musician and I am so blessed to have the CD that he performed. This gives me a chance to again hear his voice whenever I need it. My children won't have that when I pass because I don't have that talent but they WILL have my words found here.
I always thought when my Mother passed that it had to be the worst experience ever. Well, this seems even worse and I don't know if it's because I am older and wimpier or if it is because losing a sibling is a little different experience than losing a Mom. They are both bad ones. Watching a loved one suffer is the worst thing ever!
Today I wrapped presents while listening to that CD and bawling. That is the way it goes. We've all got to heal somehow. I am sure for every person it is a little different.
I am thankful for the many friends and family who have shown sympathy and support. Thanks to all!
