    I just got the call for which I was dreading, and waiting, for a while now. My cousin Tommy passed away tonight. ALS finally got the best of him. Tommy was more of a brother to me, even after my own brother stopped speaking to me years ago (he had a hissy fit over my wedding!). It hasn't hit me yet. The Lord Krishna taught me a lot, and next to love for all, the other is the body might die, but the soul does not.

    Hi Mere.,

    Condolences...

    Sorry to hear about your cousin Tommy. May you and your family have the peace of knowing
    that Tommy no longer has to endure ALS.

    God Bless.

    It's finally hit me what happened. At least I had the chance to see him at the home before he died. My kid is doing okay about this. The last time we went to see him - which was devastating enough - she was drawing him pictures to make him laugh.

    I'm okay.

    Mere I'm sorry about your loss.
    I never know what to say at these times so just take a silent & big hug from me.
    I was planning to come out next Friday but if you'd rather I wait please just let me know.
