My brother died
My brother who I was fighting for died yesterday in the hospital
His heart just gave out. He had been declared fit for discharge to Rehab.
At least I spared his widow the feeling that he had gotten less than full care.

Crushed; I am very sorry for the loss of your brother; you did well for him and his wife, she as been protected from second guessing and much regret or even guilt had he been sent out of the acute hospital to a "rehab" in such a condition.

Thank you all
any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind. And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.

This is heartbreaking. I am so sorry you are going through this.
I lost my brother in 2010 and I still miss him.He died a few weeks before DH went into a coma from encephalitis, so I did not really have time to grieve.
I have a little antique table in my bedroom with an old picture of my brother in a silver frame at the beach with his dog. It is my favorite picture of him.He looks so carefree and young and beautiful and alive.Beside the photo is a tiny book of poems of the sea and a tiny silver bird statue.
I look at him every day and say hello. I hope you can find some comfort and peace while you feel the profound loss of your beloved brother, and that one day his memory will make you smile again.
