God bless you, and your brother was so extremely blessed to have you as a sister. Your caring for him is evident in every word you shared with us. Thank you so much for opening up to us here in the OCF forums, and I am very grateful for everyone's support of you and your family. We truly are all in this together, and I am sure that others here who have lost their loved ones will let you know what helped them most. I am so so sorry for your terrible loss. Please know that we are with you in our thoughts and prayers.
