Default A Prayer For My Brother.

My Brother has been fighting, what started out as Prostate Cancer for almost 5 years, now. In the last year it has mastisized to his bones and he has been, slowly going down hill.

Yesterday my Niece (his DD) called me from his home in Fla...she had driven in from her home in Atlanta, so that I could talk to him for the last time and say goodby. He couldn't talk, but he could listen. I'm wasn't ready. Are we ever?

Later on, yesterday, his DD called me back and said that my bro wanted to talk to me. I said....What? It seems that he rallied a bit and wanted to assure me that he was not leaving quite yet. Anyway I talked to him again this morning and he is having a wonderful time talking and joking with his Family all around him.

I talked to his wife, and he is indeed, not long for this world, but rally he did. She and Nurse were shocked.

I am going to miss him more than I can say. He has been my Friend and my Rock, especially since my DH passed away.

A Prayer for his departure from Earth and his arrival to Heaven will be so appreciated and for us survivors, to go on without him.

Thanks and Love,

Sally
