and Im extremely depressed. I miss him so much. Makes me so angry to think about since he needed a liver transplant and was #1 on the donor list and not a single liver was available for over a month! Makes you really understand the true need for people to be organ donors. You never know who you might be saving. He left behind a wife, a daughter and son. Today please play my brothers favorite song, "Release" and just hug your brother, sister, mother, father, best friend, wife, husband, whomever and tell them you love them.
If you're not an organ donor please think about being one. If you are, please make sure your family knows your wishes, cause they can override your reuqest. If you know nothing about it...read up

Sorry to hear that. My sister will have been gone for 8 years in November. I was 24 and she was 28 and we were close. I was a wreck for a long time. I think about her often. It was kind of upsetting when I got married a month ago that she wasn't there but I believe that she was there in spirit. Stay strong.I'll ride the wave where it takes me.0

I'm so sorry for the loss of your brother. I will definitely play Release in his memory.
{{{hugs}}} to you."What the CANUCK happened?!? - Esquimalt Barber Shop0 -
i am so deeply sorry for your family's loss, how utterly tragic. i cannot even imagine losing one of my sisters. :(
and you are soooo right about organ donors! sooo needed! i am a registered organ donor, as is my sister and my mom. i have to remind hubby to do the same.
hearts & thoughts.........Stay with me...
Let's just breathe...
I am myself like you somehow0 -
My thoughts are with you.
I hope you don’t mind if I hijack your thread a little here. I am on the list for organ donorship. I am also on the list for bone marrow donorship.
And I am a regular blood donor.
I can not stress the importance of donating blood. These transplant surgeries alone often require hundeds of blood products, and just as without an available organ, if the blood products are not available, it could cause delays in transplanting a life saving organ to someone who desperately needs it.
To those of you out there considering becoming an organ donor, also consider becoming a blood donor. Every donation helps at least three people.
Thanks for listening, and again, Petrocs, my condolences.Don't come closer or I'll have to go0 -
petrocs... my condolences to you ::hugs::
Reminding people about the importance of organ donation is beautiful way to honor his memory.
So many people want to be a donor, but forgot to sign the back of their drivers license. If that's you, go do it now..
"I am myself... like you somehow..."0 -
Im so sorry.0
-
So sorry for your loss. Wife & I are both registered donors.I can't teach common sense.0
-
I'm thinking of you and him...and I'll play release like you requested. I am an organ donor and I encourage my family and friends to be as well. There's no telling who you can help after you're gone."I'm not present, I'm a drug that makes you dream"0
-
it would be an honor to play release for both you & your brother tomorrow. i'm so sorry for your loss.I LOVE MUSIC.

I'm soooo sorry! It must be absolutely unbearable and I don't know how people get through something like this. I've never gotten over my 9 & 11 year old cousins dying in a fire when I was 9 and I only saw them a few times a year but they're never far from my thoughts and I feel like I need to live as much as I can since they never got the chance. I really can't imagine a sister or brother though
I'm really sorry.
On the plus side, I AM a registered organ donor but your post has reminded me that I need to convince others to do the same. I imagine most people who DON'T donate actually wouldn't have minded doing so anyway so I think it's something that maybe doctors could push a bit more.The Astoria??? Orgazmic!
Verona??? it's all surmountable
Dublin 23.08.06 "The beauty of Ireland, right there!"
Wembley? We all believe!
Copenhagen?? your light made us stars
Chicago 07? And love
What a different life
Had I not found this love with you0 -
Damn—sorry about that.
I do donate blood and am listed as an organ donor and
am on bone marrow donor list.
Take care~~~~~~So I'll just lie down and wait for the dream
Where I'm not ugly and you're lookin' at me0 -
i am so sorry to hear that. :(
i'm a registered organ donor. my 19 year old cousin passed away unexpectedly last month from an aneurysm and the only small comfort we had was to think about all of the lives he helped out with the organ donation.
my thoughts are with you!0 -
Sending a hug your way...I hope you can enjoy some good memories and stories of your brother tomorrow, and try to make a better day out of it...Need a tour Travel Agent??? Pick me :-)
Whatever you are, be a good one --Lincoln0 -
I'm very sorry to hear about that man.
I hope you can hang in there and get through the day.
I'll play 'release' tomorrow for him at my bar."The dude abides. I don't know about you, but I take comfort in that. It's good knowin' he's out there. The Dude. Takin' her easy for all us sinners."0 -
My thoughts are with bud. Lost my sister two years ago last December and the pain of it can be very raw at times and other times I feel like she's fading from my memory. Such tough thing to deal with.
Peace Brother.I can't go the library anymore, everyone STINKS!!0 -
Petrocs, want to tell us about your brother?0
-
Take care of yourself tomorrow man. I'll definitely have Release on first thing in the morning. Sorry for your loss.0
