cant take much more(a brothers prayer)

how do you go on when every day is a living nightmare the thing ive seen no one should have to see
to carry ya youngest brothers casket to the grave
to see him murdered
to watch him lay in hospital bed life edging away.

to see only one of ten be found guilty of murder
to see him only get 12 years
to see them laugh in the dock
to see them show no remorse

wish i was with my brother sam
live in hope those who did this rot in hell
the saying gose GOD PAYS HIS DEBTS WITHOUT MONEY
hope so

SAM I LOVE YA see ya one day

Hi jessie, don't think we've met yet, but I've been reading your posts. Welcome aboard BTW..

I get the impression that your brother meant quite a bit to you. I'd be interested in hearing about him. His life....the things that are unique to him. The things that happened between you growing up that created the special bond I see coming through in your posts.

I'm sorry for the way that he died. That is a horrible thing to have to carry on from... but he sounds special enough that I'm really interested in how he lived, I'd love to hear about pranks and getting into trouble with each other... the 'fun' stuff...

I just can't imagine anyone missing me the way that you seem to miss him... I envy that relationship and would love to hear stories about what makes him so special in your heart. I would love to get to know him better.

hugs
diane

A man from BC got into politics because of his son's murder.
He became determined to do something about society and he was elected both years he ran.
He made a big difference and his son did not die in vain. Everyone will remember both of them.

wikipedia
He was the only candidate not affiliated with a party to win a seat in the 2004 election, and remained an independent, refusing offers to rejoin the Conservatives.

I think that's a wonderful idea

Would you like to share some wonderful memories with us, Jess?

Flopstock, that was very nice. I was thinking the same but was afraid I'd seem nosy, so thanks!

Jess
We've met and talked about your tragedy - Koan has a great point to change the out come - make a difference. Yes, your experience was terrible - I found it devistating to see my nephew on life support - but then I had to be grateful for that time to hold him and say good-bye. All we can do is be thankful for the time we had with these special people - think of the fun times - jokes - the laughs shared.
Your in my thoughts

Sam, I am sorry for your loss and glad that you are sharing. I am thankful for the others who have encouraged you to share and I agree with them.

I hope that you continue to share, perhaps it will help some.
