The Impact

The morning after my brother's accident and the days that followed were a bit of a blur.....spending time with my family in the ICU waiting room, my brother finally coming out of his coma and talking to us, pleading with my job not to send me to Virginia for business, fighting with the nurses and demanding that doctors show up and tell us my brother's prognosis...talking to my brother, laughing with him, all of the family at the hospital rallying around Mike!

Mike, that sweet, lovable, gotcha grin, even in all the pain, he still could break your heart! Oh, how I miss him, miss his friendship, his view on the world, miss him being there as the one person who always had my back! That final conversation will never leave my heart, no matter how many times I talk about, it is the one thing that I think held me together all these years....that I was able to tell him that I loved him as well, that he knew he was loved by us all, that we could not live without him.......

I will post more later.....
Sweet Dreams.....
