DEDICATED TO THE HEALING OF MSA AND MY BROTHER AL
You came into my life
A year after I was here
I never knew the reason
I only knew you did appear.
My time of shining ended
The light went straight to you
I never knew the reason
Why I seemed to feel so blue.
I ignored you all I could
I didn’t want to play
I never knew the reason
I wanted you to go away.
Then years later we met again
And I knew the reason why
Our hearts reconnected
And many days I cried.
Now the illness has gone forever
And you have left my sight
I knew the reason why
You needed me for your flight.
You were and remain my brother
I will never forget our time
I never knew the reason
But God just timed it right.
Written by,
Terry Shepherd

Oh thank you so much Wendell. I am smiling as I read your comment to me. I, also believe Al smiles down upon me and I am sure he is saving that spot for me as he promised he would. Hugs

Brothers are very special…I am so sorry for your loss…my younger brother, Bill, died two years ago from Myotonic Dystrophy. There is too much suffering in this world…blessings to you!

Let me wrap my arms around you and give you a big hug for the loss of your brother. Life gets easier, but we don’t forget. I believe we adjust to the pain and learn how to walk around it. Hugs

You were there for Al when he needed you, and you didn’t let him go when authorities no longer cared for him. You are everything it is to be a sister, and you made his last years as good as they could possibly have been. Al is, and always will be, watching over you.
