My brother did not recover. His last days were difficult for him and for the family. He appreciated being in his own home. Hospice is a valuable service. Family members were able to surround him as he quietly slipped away. It was so hard to watch my beautiful little brother but so sweet to hold his hand and feel his love. He did not speak for a day or two before he passed the veil but he understood and his eyes spoke volumes of love.
Now it is time to move forward, letting grief soften. Knowing all my brothers, and our parents, will be waiting to welcome me home to heaven some day is a very sweet hope.
