Leavin' all of this pain behind, gonna sail away; Lettin' all of these chains unwind, gonna fly away; Makin' over this troubled mind, gonna wash away; Leavin' all of this doubt behind, gonna sail away.

Please let us know if we can help.

Last night before going to sleep I prayed harder than I've ever prayed in my life for God to take my brother and end his suffering. As sad as the situation is, my prayers were answered.
Originally Posted By avromark It's sad and sucks. But Roadie me laddie when you do decide to smile again, please let it be from the front end. I'm sure your very grateful you knew him and wouldn't change that ever. I can't help but think of an old theme song for a TV series, along the lines of "Life goes on". I hope he'll be happy wherever he is. (I can't accept life just stops). I hope it was peaceful, I hope he had a smile on his face at the end.
