In August it will be 4 years that I lost my beloved brother.And what is so strange before he died,he called me on that sunday.He called me Sunday..the 18th of July and he told me that he was going.I did not know what to say.ANd then I asked him-what would I do? Frank told me this"You have to learn to live without me." When he said this,I knew that his struggles would soon be over.He was just one heck of a brother and he also told me before he died to leave Brad when I still have the time.My boyfriend Brad then and now has got a drinking problem.At Christmas,he was picked up by the seattle police department for his 3rd DUI and it hasnt been good since.Frank told me that this would happen,but things are getting to be a little better.Brad has been sober for two months and told me that he would never drink again.He does not know how I miss Frank and I cannot tell him.But everyday I cry and cry and think of all of the things that we did together.And Frank had one dream before he died-he wanted The Mariners to win the World Series! Heres to you,Bubba and I miss you! You were the best!
So sorry to hear about your brother. Losing a sibling is very hard. It's hard sometimes to discuss our true feelings to someone. I lost a sister to brain cancer on Jan 08. I'm sometimes embrassed by the way I cry so often and the roller coaster emotions. I had no idea that I would be experincing sooo many emotions. And the memories of her, hurts me deeply. I miss her so much. I have been on main bereavement board - not knowing this group existed. I'm glad I found it!
I wish you peace and comfort as you remember your brother.
Hi Vader,
So sorry to hear about your brother. It's scary to think that 4 years down the track I may still be feeling as i am now. I lost my brother under suspicious circumstances in Feb 08. The pain is almost unbearable, sometimes it hurts too much to cry and I just stare into space feeling my heart break. Our footy team won the Grand Final here last year after 44 years without one. So i'm glad Stu was alove to see it!
God Bless

I am so thankful for the wonderful replies that I have been receiving.All I can say is that Frank would have been so proud.As for me,I am still with
Brad but it is slowly unreavling.I do not care for him anymore.I feel so empty when I am with Brad.Frank told me that this would happen.The lease is up in August so I am bearing all of this grief.Brad has been sober for a few months now but he can very,very nasty when he is not drinking.I do miss Frank.He would call me every Tuesday and Frank liked Shawn Alexander.He would have been upset about the trade.Heres to you,Bubba!
I had to make another comment.Whoever said that time heals all wounds is so full of it! I am having a real bad day and as usual,Brad lives in a world all of his own.It is Tuesday and on Tuesday my beloved brother would call me and this is the part that I miss the most.As for Brad,he still has his drinking problem and as this stage..i do not care.I just dont care anymore and we are drifing apart.And next year..I turn the magic age.I will be 62 and I have decided to leave Brad and start anew..all by myself.I do not like having a boyfriend and I never did.i have always liked men and such..but this closeness is smothering me.I can see why widowers marry after the death of their wives.The wives do everything and this is how it is here and this is not fair.Men-excuse me! But please get a life! I am not responsbie for your social life and such.I never will be so you better have friends and interests as well.You better learn to do stuff with out me.All of this holding hands,kissing and romantic drivel dyes out 6 weeks after the honeymoon is over.Lets grow up.I do not believe in these romantic getaways and such.And I do not like flowers or plants.If Brad brought me roses,I will throw them out because Axl Rose he aint.
My brother died in 2006. His birthday is July 7. He would have been 38 this year. My nephew was born 7-7-2001. He says that he doesn't get a birthday because uncle Eddie doesn't have one anymore. How do you respond to that? It breaks my heart. I miss Eddie everyday and it is not getting any easier. I realized yesterday that I can't remember what his voice sounded like. No one understands what it is to lose your big brother, your hero, unless they have been through it. I never used to cry. Now I can't seem to stop myself. I feel like such a wuss.
May you make the decisions that put you on the path to happiness. And don't put up with other people's bs. Say it like it is.
Thank you to all who have repled but noone really understands the death of a brother.Noone and I still feel so all alone and I miss him so much everyday.It is so hard to tell anyone today your feelings and people in seattle do not talk.Some of these guys here are unbelievable.Brad is still pining for the girl he dated when he was 15 and then she busted up with him and he did not understand.It was the 1970s and women wanted more.She did not want to stay in that town.He has never gotten over it.All I can say-please guys-when rejections does come do us all a favro-accept it and get a life!
