Got a call at 9pm xmas eve saying my bro had fallen down the stairs at his home,my bro has been fighting terminal cancer.I jumped in the car and flew the 3miles to his house to find his wife hyserical and his neighbour trying to help..HE WAS UNCONSCIOUS BUT BREATHING,sadly he stopped breathing practically in my arms,we didnt move him till the para-medics came and took over,they were great,they tried,n,tried,even put the bangers on and shocked him,they got a pulse but was weak so they rushed him to hospital but lost him on the way in the hospital gates....SO,sadly i,ve now lost a brother that i dearly loved,we think he broke his neck in the fall.After all that,chemo,radio and everything else it turns out that it wasnt the cancer that killed him..Wont know for certain till we get result of post-mortem back but there u go...SO, i hope he can now R.I.P,,FROM A BROTHER WHO LOVED U DEARLY...eck

I wondered how you would tell the tale of woe.......after reading yer email earlier today..Eck youve really gotten a f***ing tough battle ahead,as you know my Bro.died in 98....we were best pals.......so i can kinda relate to you....that pain in year chest,the shellshocked feeling....you know what i mean.Eck dont you do what i did by using heavily to block out the pain,i had to face his passing...only when i was straight....just putting off the inevitable.Eck i cant say enough bout yer Bros death.....i really feel for ya Mucker,just take it day by day.....slowly the hurt you have, will slowly receed but will never go away.Anytime you need a chat just mail me,im here to help in anyway i can....take care of Yerself mate.....and dont ponder the ifs and whys.....you will just make yerself more uptight.......again Eck....i feel yer pain,just the shock of it all makes ya think yer going mad......stay tough mate......all the very best Eck.............Davey

I guess the big guy upstairs needed him right away so he cut his suffering off
earlier than expected.

I am so sorry for all of you! Cancer is a terrible thing. Ironic that an accident would take him. I'm so sorry. That's a real tragedy. You and your family stay close and take care of each other!

Good lord, Eckie, I am so very, very sorry. You've had an almost unbearably tough 2008 and I will say a prayer for you and your brother. Wish I had more for you...thinking of you, Eck.

Dear Eckie,

I'm so sorry for your loss. Bless your heart! How sad. I will keep you and your family in my prayers. Remember the words of the Serenity Prayer....

God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next.
Amen.
--Reinhold Niebuhr

Love,
Susan

Eckie,
I am so sorry, there are no words sending prayers. Davey's right, someone so close it's a tough path you walk will keep you in my thoughts.

Eck, I am so sorry about your brother. I lost my brother a few years back from suicide. I know how you feel. For this to happen right at Christmas makes it especially hard for you. I wish there was something I could do. I will pray for you.

Best of it is my nut of a sister decided to take an o-d of painkillers on xmas night.She text me to tell me she was doing it but i ignored her,she obviously text or phoned enough people for someone to contact the emergency services,as if they havent got enough too do.I dont want to sound hard or uncaring but my sister likes a drink but doesnt think she is an alchaholic because she has a loveky house etc,but anyone who sits alone night after night wi their bottle and fone ready to annoy everyone when they start gettin pissed is an alcaholic.I dont want to go on too much here about my family but things are not great between certain ones,but if u want to top yourself jump in front of a train,,,sorry for the rant...eck

Jaysus f***ing wept!!!Eckie mate you can only do so much,youve got to think bout numero uno,having a bitching family after the disaster that befell yer Bro.....cant be easy to say the least.After my Bro died one or two of my Aunts started the rumour mill,saying he was just a junkie and basically had it coming......so from an accidental,experimention type death he became a fully fledged addict....my Bro liked drugs but had never taken opiates in his life....funny how yer nearest and dearest?f***ing stab ya in the back...while smiling.Yer sister sounds like one messed up lady....very lonely in a big house,but has everything of material value.....but needs the bottle and her mobile to harass and let blast her bitterness,to the few unfortunate folks who have contact with her.Eck....do what you can but think of yer own heart and soul in all this chaos...it will take a lot of mending,trust me pal.
Eck me old mate i am thinking of you in this testing times,take care all the very best as always............yer favourite Fenian .............Davey...
