Brother passed away

Hi all.... Here is a sad news my brother passed away last night after vomiting blood. He was doing fine for a month and we all were relaxed but just after two years of his diagnosis he left us. It was alcohol which has to be blamed. And cirrhosis is a miserable disease. Please quit drinking to all those who are still drinking after their diagnosis. Thanks

I'm so sorry to hear your very sad news. I can empathise with you as in 2010 my sister died aged 41 of alcoholic hepatitis, variceal bleeding which ultimately caused an MI. She too seemed to be improving, having been in ICU, she ended up having further catastrophic bleeds. It is so tragic that people are taken due to a horrid addiction, which often takes away the person you love long before they actually die. You are then left to watch them suffer.

I hope that you have plenty of support to manage your grief.

With my sympathies,

You are a loyal, loving and strong person. Despite the personal pain it cost you, you stood by your brother, watching him deterioate, but never leaving him alone. That is an incredible gift you gave him, at the expense of your own heart. I cannot lie - there are dark days ahead - but know that you can always come back here for support whenever you need it. Wishing you strength and peace as you move forward.

I am so so sorry to hear this and you have my deepest sympathy. I have been reading your posts.

I lost my partner on 10th January this year in the same circumstances and it’s the most distressing and heartbreaking situation. He was just 49.

So very sorry to hear of your sad news. Same here. My youngest brother died on 4 January but we were kind of expecting it as his weight loss was very evident and his stomach so extended where fluid was building up. Just cannot believe people can be so addicted to drink that they would gamble with their lives.

So sorry to hear this. It must be doubly devastating for you left behind. It must be impossible to get someone else to stop drinking. Those left behind must often wonder what else they could have done, but they mustn’t blame themselves. It’s a sad sad story when this happens. RIP

So sorry for your sad loss. Drinkers often have friends who are the same , hopefully your devastation will hit home to some of them, if it stops just one person then it may help . Hazelx

I'm so sorry for your loss. The warning about alcohol is so important and it shows, sadly, that you can never take wellness for granted with a diagnosis of cirrhosis.
