Well just got back from the hospital pulling the plug on my big brothers life support. He overdosed and was put on life support this afternoon. the neurologist said he had zero brain activity so itold them to pull the plug on his life support. I hate him for what he became but love him for everything he did for me before he turned into junkie. He always said if something happens not to let him be kept alive by life support. I hope he knows I love him. And I hope he finds the peace in death he could never find In life this joints for you bro. See you on the other side:comfort:

Nothing I could type that will make you feel better. You did the right thing. No brain activity no life left. Just a shell. It's a hard decision. At the end of the day the doctor told you what you needed to hear. The truth. He didn't sugar coat it or give you false hope that just maybe things would get better. It's normal to second guess yourself. Who wouldn't. You have to ask yourself if it's more merciful to let him pass quickly and in peace or linger on and waste away day by day. Only you can answer that question and find the peace and justification for the hardest decision you've had to make. I hope you find your peace.

the choice was made before you got there, nothing you do can reverse his fate, you can only hope to bring peace to the ones he loved.

I lost alot of people i love to grim circumstance and I realized the part of their live I choose to focus my memory upon is entirely up to me.

So sorry to hear it.

Sorry for your loss.........gives me a stark reminder of just how fortunate I am. Former junkie here. Shooting up anything I could get my hands on. Stealing from my job, lying to my family. Be there done that. Cannabis is one of the things that helped me get my life back. I was on a path of destruction, and had to lose almost everything to snap out of it.

I truly feel for you, as I very easily could have been in that hospital bed myself. Best wishes to you and your family. As far as I see it, you have every right to break down in front of your family. It doesn't make you weaker, it makes you stronger. You have every right to feel, it's what we do.

Thanks for the support everyone. What I'm trying to figure out now is how the hell I get his body from here to red hook new York. He never left any info on burial wishes but Im pretty sure he would want to be buried by his son. So that's what I'm gonna do. Has anyone ever had to do this? Do I call an airline and make arrangements? How the hell do i get his remains cross country? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
