My oldest brother died this morning. He was in ICU for the last few days and last night they took him off life support.The same thing happened with my mother in 1983; we had to have her "unplugged" then we waited. It's a weird feeling to wait for someone to die; to know with certainty that the end is shockingly near. Even when there is a terminal illness, as was the case with my mother, when they die it still slaps the shit out of you.

 

My brother, Jimmy, was a grown man when I was born and I barely knew him. I didn't want him to live in pain, but now I'll never have the chance to know him. I worry for my other siblings whom I am closer to. I worry more that I may be last and have to watch them all go.

 

This is me and my siblings in about 1968 in our house in Metairie, LA.

Top: Jimmy, DD (Anne). Bottom: Johnny, Kathy (me), Joey. (only my family call me Kathy or my sister DD.)

He was in ICU for the last few days and last night they took him off life support.The same thing happened with my mother in 1983; we had to have her "unplugged" then we waited. It's a weird feeling to wait for someone to die; to know with certainty that the end is shockingly near.

I know what you are feeling and saying about even terminally ill aaaaaaaaaaand long term at that. My dad was terminally ill for years and I saw him suffer so much. We all knew he was going to pass but that didn't end the pain when he finally did. I am praying for you and you families comfort!

I'm very sorry for your loss Janey. I"ve been through the disconnect and wait 3 times now. While it never gets any easier, i've found that it does give me time to make my internal peace with the situation and i got to spend a few last precious days or hours with my dad, step dad and grandfater that way. God Bless you and your family.
