It's Over
« on: July 26, 2007, 12:01:06 AM »
I have told very few people of what has been going on in my personal life lately, but those I have, I thank for their support.
For those I havn't let in I will explain & apologize if I have been too upsetting for some people lately, it has been a rough time.
I recieved word on Sunday afternoon that my Younger brother, actully the youngest in the family was admited to hospital in Thunder Bay, Ontario. It was discovered that his liver was totally riddled with cancer & his kidneys had totally shut down & he was in a lot of pain.
He had an operation & kemotherapy treatments about 6 months ago & they told us that he was improving. I guess they were wrong.
My Mother & Sister left Calgary on Monday to be with him & as much as I would have liked to be there, I could not, I just don't have the resources to pack up & go on such short notice.
As it turns out it would have been to no avail anyway as the two day drive for my Mother & sister was not fast enogh either.
My brother passed away Monday afternoon & we did not find out untill they arrived yesterday & my sister phoned me at 1AM my time this morning to tell me.
Wherever he is he is probably better off as he had been in a lot of pain for some time we were told.
I wish him a good journey & when my time comes, I will join him on the other side. It just feels totally wrong as he was the youngest & should have outlived me, but I guess we are all delt the hand we must play. He will be missed by his fmily & friends & coworkers, (he worked for 20 years as a mechanic for the Canadian Tire Corporation), but he will be missed mostly by his children but his legacy will live on iin them.
Good journey Dean, whereever you are!

I wish I had words that would tell you how I am sorry for your loss.

I have always thought that I had something to say about anything.

But I am at a without words.

Richard, I don't have the words, but take care,

Richard,

I'm very sorry for your loss.  I know what it's like to lose a younger sibling, I lost my baby sister many years ago, life just isn't the same without them.

Richard,
Sad to hear about your loss. As I lost my mother to cancer, I know how excruciating the pain can be, and how it can be a benefit to the people suffering from it when they finally lose the battle.
You are probably lucky to have memories of him in good times when he was healthy, and not see him in his last moments that can make you wish for death to come swiftly upon a person. Relish the good times and happy memories, and your brother will live on as long as you do.
No it is not a dog. Its really how I look.  ;)

Thanks all, its been a rough couple of days but today was especially bad.
I begged out of going tothe office today as i just wasn't upto dealing with anybody. I did talk to a coupleof clients on the phone & answered a few emails but thats it. Life goes on.
I spent the day remembering the times we used to ride horseback together, the three of us across the prarie herding the cattle in for branding or to the trucks to ship them to the abituoire. I remember that dirty old brown Cowboy hat he always wore. It had been stepped on & crapped on & yes even pi$$ed on by horses as well as cows & everytime it happened he'd take it to the nearest stream or bucket & dunk it shake it around pull it out & slam it on his head. I would bug him something terrible bad that he should buy a new one but no, he said, "No matter how much money I pay for a new one it'll never set as good on my head or have the tales to tell that this one has." I bet My Mom & Sister find that hat while they are taking care of his affairs & sorting his belongings!!
Yes, the memories will live as long as I will & longer for those who outlive me.
Thanks again.

Hope that you will not hate me... but i am a man with some humor...

So related to your quote comment... since i am a gardener... i can say that the bad plant are the more strong one...

Yes, i know... trying to joke is something who can seem wrong for a lot of people... but it have help me last year when my father was dead ( the same day that i have see him again after more of 30 year separation )... a month after, it was my grand mother !!!

Life go on... and you are lucky in some way... you have a wonderfull wife on your side to support you !!! Think to her... being near you in so difficult moment is not easy for her too... She see you suffer... Thank God to have give you a so wonderful partner...

In short... My condoleances
