My brother's death
Shevonne Junior Member Posts: 2 Joined: March 13 2004, 07:21 My brother's death -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello, my name is Shevonne. I've had multiple losses in my life, but when my brother died back in July 2000, of respiratory failure, I was completely shocked and traumatised. When the doctor said, your brother is dying, it didn't sink in, I thought to myself this couldn't be true, and that the doctor didn't know what he was saying, that it was all a big mistake. Although my loss hasn't been quite recent, I think about my brother every day, how he no longer is not here, it's sad. He was always ready for a big laugh, loved to laugh and loved to make you laugh.

I hope that you find this forum will help you through your grieving process. I know it is sad when you are reminded in any way about the loss of your brother. And it is so wonderful that you could characterize your brother in one sentance the way you did. "He was always ready for a big laugh, loved to laugh and loved to make you laugh." Wow -- he must have been a true joy to be with, and I bet you feel lucky that you had him in your life for the time you did. It is so important to have and to share laughter . It is a great assett in the healing process. I hope you can find laughter with others. Maybe this will help bring back the good memories you have of your brother. He was also very lucky to have you in his life - someone who cared so much, that would be traumatised the way you were. I'm sure he knew how much you loved him. I believe he loved and still does love you too. Please keep revising this site and let us know how you are doing. Sincerely, Barry Posted on: 17-03-04 06:15:44

I hope that you find this forum will help you through your grieving process as some of us are just now starting the process of healing and the ones that are just closing up the wounds of the loss of a loved one. I have also had multiple losses in my life and I'm going threw it once again unfotunately. Though I have experienced the death of a loved one many times, I haven't lost a sibling so I don't know what it feels like to lose one. You said it was a shock when the doctors told you that your brother wasn't going to live and that it didn't really sink in until he passed away. I believe that is a normal reaction for most people because they dont like to hear bad news especially when it has to do with loosing someone close. Its great that you think of your brothers often. You also said that he is no longer here. I'm sorry, but I think you are wrong because he may not be here physically, but he is here spiritually. Sorry again if you don't belive in spirits, God and what not and please don't take offence (sp?). Anyways, thanks for posting on this site and I hope that you come back. -Shana Posted on: 17-03-04 23:42:16

Fortunately, I do share laughter with other people. I noticed in your response, you are talking from experience. Yes, my brother was a joy, I loved/love him very much, I always treated him with a lot of respect. When I would phone him, he lived with my mother, grandmother and uncle, he would answer the phone, and ask ok who do u want to talk to now, I'm watching a movie. I'm busy right now. I would answer, I'm calling to say hi. Anyways, Barry, thanks again. Shana, thank you for your reply, I just wanted to point out to you, you said u were sorry that I don't believe in spirits, in God, but didn't say you were sorry about my loss of my brother, I knew my brother he existed , but I never knew God, My brother is more important to me than a spirit that I don't see. I hope I didn't offend you. I want you to know that you didn't offend me at all. Shevonne Posted on: 06-04-04 09:22:31

I feel so bad. I do feel sorry for you that you had to go through the loss of losing someone that was really close to you. I can understand why your brother is more important to you than a spirit that you can't see. You also didn't offend me. I'm glad you pointed it out cause I didn't realize what I put until now. I was thinking it and everything, I just didn't type it. Once again I'm sorry for not posting that I'm sorry about your loss. Take care. -Shana Posted on: 06-04-04 19:48:13
