Please pray for my family



Recommended Posts

My youngest brother (28 years old) was found dead in his own apartment in New York this evening. We all live in Wisconsin and don't have any details until my other brother gets there tomorrow morning. My family is devasated. My parents are just walking shells of who they once were. He was the baby of our family....fit, healthy, athletic, successful and happy. Makes no sense. I still can't even believe it. My heart is broken for all of us--we had a great relationship--daily chats on the computer-jokes and an interesting writer/editor relationship with some short stories he was writing.

Painful, broken, and just devastated. Fine one minute, shocked disbelief, and crying the next. All we know is the police said no evidence of foul play/forced entry or suicide.

Makes no sense.

Kimber-lilly,

I am so sorry to hear about your brother...my prayers are being sent for you and your family.

I don't know where in Wisconsin you live, but I live in Wisconsin also....if we are fairly close, if there is anything I can do for you or your family, I would be happy to.

I live in a surburb outside of Milwaukee....Sussex, WI....where are you?

A thousand thank you's for all your support. I just got home after spending the day with my parents--took them to the funeral home to make arrangements--a scenario I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. It really warms my heart to know that you all care. We are in northern Wisconsin--on the border by Iron Mountain Michigan--and I appreciate all your offers to help. Nothing to do, really. I will try to hand it over to God, like you said.

Your thoughts and kind words are my buoy.

Kimberly

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
