MAY THE 3RD, 2008


"To the outside world we all grow old. But not to brothers and sisters. We know each other as we always were. We know each other's hearts. We share private family jokes. We remember family feuds and secrets, family griefs and joys. We live outside the touch of time." ~Clara Ortega



When your life is flipped up side down with the loss of someone who is apart of who you are, the first few weeks pass, and you don't really know what to think. The surreal experience causes your body to go into a state of shock, the body's natural response to 'Pain'.

As the weeks drift by, and the shock eases you find yourself in a hole, a hole that you cant find an exit too. This is when the realisation of what has happened settles in, everyone else gets on with their own life and instead of the pain easing u find that the hole doesnt get any shallower. You cant fight it, you just have to accept that its here for the long haul, for life.

All for one and one for all
My brother and my friend
What fun we have
The time we share
Brothers 'til the end.

So from here on, the only thing that we have to remember the good times is the memories that flood back constantly, and the anniversaries that continue to arise. February 21st, 2009 was the day you passed from our world into your next. It will be the day that our Family will hold and cherish your existence. From here comes the 1 month, 3 Month, Your Birthday, 6 months,Christmas, 1 year and so on..

On a personal level, May the 3rd of this year is my most significant day that i have had since your passing. It was the last time i saw you, the last time i will ever be able hold you.



I miss you Patty, Stay safe where ever you are........ looking forward to the day that we can again catchup on everything we've missed out on. But until that day comes, I'll remember the good times we shared, the great times we had. You will always be in my heart. Luv u bruz.
