My heart is bleeding, my soul broken ~ my little brother died

[Rhett&SarahsMom]

I am so so very sorry for your loss.

I lost my half brother a few years ago. He had been in the Navy, like our dad. Gone to Mexico City to help after the earthquake there. Was a high security prison guard. He be friended convicts and assisted them in getting back into the "world" when they were released. One night one of those men stabbed him. He bled to death on his apartment landing.
My neice is getting better. But we are all still mourning his loss.

I say the same. I pity the person that ever hurts my daughter. She too has a SEAL and several Navy and Marines looking out for her. Never mind her father and I.

Getting on a plane here in a few hours to head to Colorado, his viewing will be saterday and then he will be layed to rest on tues. I dont know how I am going to deal with not getting my smile and hug like I always got no matter if we had been gone 5 mins or 5 months.

Today as I left my son he told me " I need to go momma, I need to tell Uncle Mike I love him and good bye"...... just when I thought my heart couldnt hurt any more.....

Then as I went to walk out the door he gave me one of the "bullets" from his toy gun to give to Uncle Mike saying " he will know I love it and him too"


Gonna be a hard hard flight but one day at a time ~~~

Thanks again all for the thoughts I sure need them

I hope this is understood correctly , thank you for sharing this with us . I think in a small way it has been cathartic for you in a small way ,as well as for others that talk about loved ones they have lost too . I don't know you ,but have a lot of respect for you, because you shared this on a public forum . I have said all this with the utmost respect for you and others . I pray that you feel the care we all are sending your way in our prayers and thoughts . May God bless , keep and give you peace .

Im back in Alaska after a very long two weeks, I want to thank the outpouring of support from you all. The viewing was harder than I thought and the cemetery gathering was jaw dropping amazing. Over 200 fellow soldiers in Dress Blues and a few in Class A's along with the Army CSM of the entier EOD flew from Iraq just for the gathering and then went right back. Add another 200 civilians and it was by far the largest military funeral I have ever seen. It was then fallowed by an awesome night of drinking with his "guys" and swaping stories that made us all smile and cry.

I also was able to get a memorial tattoo the next day and he will forever be on my arm. The artist name was Mike and he not only did an amazing job that made me cry but also wouldnt let me pay for anymore than my deposit. I was able to stay in his apartment and feel him close the entire week I was there, and that was awesome. I will admit I have never had such a hard time leaving a place other than when I saw him at Fort Bragg many years ago.

Again I wanted to thank you all, I know I have a long road ahead until I am used to the pain, or dont expect the ding of my phone to be him, but Im working on it......

Mike I will miss you forever but love you forever more ~ you are my best friend ~ the nearest thing to a soulmate I will ever have ~ <3 u
