On Friday my 19yo brother who was on a camping trip in southern Illinois was struck and killed by a train. If you have an extra moment please say a prayer that he has found his way home.
Thank You

Thank you to everyone for your thoughts. His name is David. He was a wonderful person, full of love and adventure. I am going to kind of ramble here, so excuse me. My wife's due date with our second child was on Friday. Instead of gaining a child I lost a brother. The baby still is not here and I am full of confusion. I was able to see David's body today and that helped. He told me to go and have my baby. But how do you choose between being there to see your baby born and being there to bury your baby brother? Hence the confusion and mixed feelings. I am not looking for answers, because I know David will be looking out for me, I am just trying to let out a little of my pain. Again, thank you all.

Chris, I am so sorry to hear of your loss, your child will arrive when you need it the most. Now is the time to remember your brother. The man up stairs works in mysterious ways to meet our needs. Take care.

Chris,
I've opened this thread so many times I have lost count. I have not responded for lack of thinking of what to say. I still can't put my reaction into words. My prayers are of course with you, all those that are hurting right now, and for your brother.
The loss of one we love is always hard, The unexpected loss of a young person is unmeasurably harder. You will all be in my thought often. Take care and be gentle with yourself. It is a tragic wound you have suffered.
