September 3, 2007

Thanks to all on this forum who have expressed their understandings and ideas over the past several months.

My brother took his last breath at 7:20 this morning. He left this world at peace and without pain. There are many things I will remember about the past 11 months dealing with his illness, but an image that I hope stays in my mind is him yesterday, even though near the end, being able to think about something that made him smile a long, long smile.

peace all

Mosey, I am very sorry to hear that your brother has died. Brain cancer can be so devastating. It sounds like he died the way most of us would like to die when our time comes: in peace and without pain.

I will be thinking about and praying for you and your family.

Hi Mosey, I'm so sorry to hear your brother passed away. Having such a beautiful image of him being at peace and without pain and also being able to smile must be of some comfort to you in what is such a sad and unfair time in your life. My thoughts are with you and your family. Love to all. Jen
