Hey everybody I dont know why I feel the need to share but tonight I held my brothers hand and told him its okay go be with Jesus, he took his last breathe just befor 900PM tonight. He had fought this miserable desease for a long time about ten years. It is so hard to watch your family members lose thier lives to this its not like many just fall asleep they have to endure the suffering that goes with it. Sorry just angry at this illness dont know how to cope with it.sad smiley

I am so sorry for your loss. Every time I hear of the passing of one in our HD community I become so angry and frustrated. May God help us to find a cure.

I'm sorry, too, you've lost your brother. I lost my brother to HD a few years ago, and he still comes to visit my dreams where he is well and strong and able to help me in my dream adventures.

So sorry to hear of Joes passing. No more losses for him to grieve, but you are still here and feeling the pain. This disease just flat out sucks.

Peace

Well It is 1205 in the a.m and it has been a week since my brother is gone. By my nephews wishes he wanted him cremated. The end result is tomarrow is visitation and the service, but all and all Joe is up there right now hunting and fishing in the clouds Clappingsomething he could not do for a long time. I also believe there is going to be no more suffering for him to endure. I just cant Thanks! everybody enough for all the great messages back. I sure am going to miss him though. I know everybody has a different thought about cremation I am having a little trouble with it though this is the first person in the family that has ever been cremated.

Joe I going to I miss you so alful much but I do know we will meet on the other sideI'm innocent Love always your sister Bonnie
Also in lieu of flowers all monies is going to the Huntington Chapter of New YorkThe wave
