Just today, I sat there looking at my brother's body laying there as if it had no life at all. Today was the day of his 5th open heart surgery in his young 18 years of life. Everytime, Doctor's say,"This is the final one". But a few years later were back here in this God forsaken hospital. I can't say I have been the best Big brother in the world and you'd think I would have learned considering my brother escaped death 4 times before. You'd think that I'd try to cherish every moment I had with him, you'd think that I'd do everything I could for him. But as I look back there's probably so much more I could've done. Now, all I can do is sit here looking at his seemingly lifeless body and whisper to him, "I love you bro,please don't leave me". I just want that final chance to show him I love him. I want that final chance to be the brother he deserves. Now the doctor's say it's a 50/50 chance that he makes it, I know without him I don't think I could. I don't even think I'm breathing now, I'm just wondering what he remember's from me last, I hope it's a good memory of me. I just don't want him to leave without knowing that I truly love him and that big bro's here for him whenever, forever. I love you Salodine............ Big Bro, Anthony Adam
