the anniversy of my brothers suicide is near. he is the only one who took care of me thru most of my childhood. i can never repay him now. im waiting for my sister-in-law to arrive. we struggle through it together. he was bi-polar but in a way to me he was my rock. i had other remarks about the role he played in my long ago therapy, but i just cant go on. i mmiss him a lot and think how it might have been if he could have accepted the limitations of his disease. the drugs never blocked the psychosis completely and he just couldnt fight it anymore. sad times for me, but happy just to remember him. he was a crack up and great comedian

Hi rae,
I'm so sorry for your loss, I know how difficult it can be to lose someone so significant as your brother was to you. He sounds like he was a wonderful brother; you must miss him terribly. I am glad that you have such good memories to comfort you. Thank you for telling us about him.
When you can speak about it, it would be good to hear more. Please take good care of yourself.

Peace,
AG
Hello Rae;
My heart goes out to you at this time of grief and remembrance. I am glad you find some solace in remembering him for what he meant to you and not for his infliction alone. In your memory he will always be your rock. You can always hold on to the good times you had. They are yours to treasure forever!
Hang in there!
JM
