my brother was only 42 he lost his battle at 11:45 20 march 2009 i dont beleive he has gone he was such a strong man i cant stop crying .he had a wife and seven great kids the youngest twins 18mths and his eldest turned 18 the day before.i feel so angry and so sad at the same time.i got a phone call from my wife 4 days prior i was 2300 kilometres away looking for work telling me he wasnt good.so i jumped on a bus and headed straight for home where i spent the next 3 days at his side on the fourth day i was a little later than usual i got to his house at 10.45 as he laid there he was making a gurgling sound and i said to him micheal i know you are listening and its alright for you to go mate we all love you so much as i held his hand he lifted his head and gave a knod he then took one big breath and then stoped breathing i left him to be in peace and said nothing to anyone in the other room and just sat down quietly. his wife then went to check on him and came out and told us he had gone .me and micheal made a deal about 20 years ago that when one o ff us died the other would wear a life be in it t shirt to the funeral he had told his wife this and she asked me to make sure i do his funeral is on friday and i have the shirt and i know im going to be a mess his guard off honor will consist of around 90 motor cycles from the ulysys bike club that he was a member of and a fire truck from the station he worked at im sorry to ramble on but i just need to talk to someone .i sit up everynight until about 4am talking to him still its so hard to let go so thank you for reading this . MICHEAL WE ALL LOVE YOU NOW YOU CAN REST IN PEACE WITHOUT ALL THE PAIN

Oh leespindler, I am so sorry to hear that your brother died. Yes, 42 is too young. You and your family are in my prayers as you try to find your way through this painful time.

Hi Leesplinder,

I'm so sorry to read about your Brother's passing. The pain and grief will one day ease and eventually you will be able to remember the good times.

Until then, take care and love your family and love life.
