My Poor Oldest Brother.
 
Passed away. I have known him longer than any other living person. We are 13 months apart. To me it feels like a disturbance in the force.

He has struggled with neurological problems all his life. He was in a lot of pain all his life. He was well liked and had many friends. He out lived a lot of his friends at 69 years old He did the slow suicide method of just drinking and drugging himself to the point of no return, He has had many challenges through out his whole life. May he rest in the loving arms of God. I love you my brother,

I'm so sad that you lost your brother, Splendra.
No more Earthly cares. - may he be at peace now.

Thank you so much for the condolences. Every one of them feel like a balm for my heart.. I keep seeing images of us on a swing set we we were very young. Him pushing me and us laughing it is nice. He was my big brother always ready to come to my defense. I wish I could have defended him from the monster that tortured him.

You loved him. That was all you could really do. He'd be happy you remember the good times .

My boyfriend has chronic back pain and depression which led him down the road of drinking. He's now on crack any chance he gets. But he has a few days in a row with me and he doesn't have it. So I don't know how severe it is. He hides it from me..I'm so sorry about your brother. They have a kind good side and they are so much more than the addiction to their loved ones. Im so sorry x
