He just kept telling me he knew he wouldn't live to be old. We have gone over and over what we could have done, but, we didn't live close to him and I talked to him almost every day and emailed numerous times a day and I had no idea. Such a great sadness. I'm glad your brother survived.
We are going through our own health things right now, hope they get resolved. This time of year isn't easy, even though we don't celebrate Christmas - wishing all good things to our QB community in the coming years.
No time of year is a good time when you are feeling down or depressed or feel like life is kicking your butt for whatever reason. This is a good thread, other than sometimes you wish you could do more, or at least I do.
