billiefan2000 like all here are members and part of this “family”. Looking around at the links he posted I came across another board he post to and found that in and around Sept 8th his brother died.
His best friend also dies this year it seems.
Like all families’ brothers and sisters’ fight and get under the skin of each other but are always family.

My condolences to the guy too.
But that doesn't mean I am going to lighten up on him if/when he says something absurd, though.

Pahansiri my friend Candy actually died around Thanksgiving and there is a Memorial Site for her at:

What is your problem, dude? This is one of the coldest things I've ever heard somebody say on this forum.

I'm sorry for your loss, too, billie. If you feel like you'd like to share your memories of your brother's life with us, I'd love to hear them.
Take good care of yourself and you family.

Billiefan,
Your brother was only a few years younger than my dad was when he died of a heart attack. Loss is never easy, loss of one so youthful . . .
And I went to your friends site. She seems a great and interesting person, a good and loving mother . . .
You have sure been through it these past months. I am so sorry. May you find comfort in friends, and in knowing they both loved you.
And thanks to Pahansiri for reminding us that grief doesn't care if you are a skeptic or believer, and of the power of compassion.

I have little sympathy for the lunatics of this forum.
Anyways, the statement I posted was 100% true.

This thread has been reported, and so I have read it.
First, Billiefan, please know of my great sympathy for you in this time. When I lost my mom 10 years ago, my brother in law said something to me that was of great comfort. He said, what you are feeling now is saddness and also dispair. But with time, the dispair will fade, and you will be left with only the saddness. That means you will be able to smile through the tears as you remember your brother, and that while there will always be an empty spot in your heart, there will be a warmness to it as well. As I type this, my father is in critical condition in a Michigan hospital. I find comfort in the knowledge that the dispair will fade. I hope this offers some comfort.

As to LK's post. I find this post to be one of the most heartless, cruel, immature, and just plain mean posts it has been my displeasure to read on this forum. I believe it violates the Jerk rule profoundly, and will take proper actions via private channels.

Anyways, the statement I posted was 100% true. Even if you are perfectly correct, sometimes it's best to remain silent. You have to balance your need to be "right" with simple human compassion.
Billiefan: My condolences for your loss.

Billiefan - we haven't ever really "crossed paths" on this forum, but I have read your posts, and I'd like to tell you I am saddened to hear of your loss. You and your family are in my thoughts.

Billiefan,
I am so very sorry for your losses. I just want to support what Hal said. Time really does heal the despair although it may be hard to believe that now. The sadness will be there. It is a testament to your love and connection.
You are in my thoughts.

May the lord's peace be upon you.

billiefan2000:
You have my deepest condolences. It is very hard to recover from such a loss. Your friend Candy sounded like a wonderful person.
It is so hard for the heart to heal after such terrible sudden tragic losses of loved ones.
We have recently learned that one of our children has a heart condition that can lead to sudden heart failure. But fortunately there are treatments that can prevent most problems.
It is something that runs in families. Please, for your own sake... make sure you and the rest of your family members get checked out for any genetic heart conditions.

(sigh. two. that hurts!)
My condolences as well, at least for what they're worth.
Remember, your first job is to make sure you survive this. You can't help anyone else unless you survive!
I admit I wouldn't have noticed this thread to know that a response was called for, but for the churn created by LK. Good grief!
Ironic, that! (I guess there's no "shakes head in amazement" smiley)
But be well, and hold on.

My friend why must you be so unkind?
I do not wish to turn this thread into anything more then it was meant to be, thread used to support one of our little family during the time of his sadness and loss.
But do allow me a slight walk off the path, I say these things with great respect you.
The fact is our friend billiefan is not a lunatic, he holds his beliefs as you do yours.
He harms no one, that can not be said for a post like you have to him, perhaps a mirror would help you in this case.
Anyways, the statement I posted was 100% true.
This is untrue until it can be prove as truth.
1. You have no evidence “lunatic” or that he has required any hospitalization or meds etc. I do not agree with his beliefs on many things or how he chooses to post, his personal style as to it. But this makes him no more a “lunatic” then I am breath taking-ly handsome. OK bad example LOL
He believes what he does and brings harm to no one.
2. You say there is no “heaven” and his brother is not there, you make that as a statement of fact, can you prove that with facts, data solid proof?
Seems your statement Anyways, the statement I posted was 100% true. is not as it says..
May you be well and happy and may you know I believe all here would also stand by you in your time of sadness regardless of anything you have ever said here.

Billiefan,
Sorry to hear of your loss.
Both my parents are gone. I play a little mind game with myself. When I think of them - they come alive. Make your brother and your best friend 'come alive' often.

Hey, me too. I talk to my Dad fairly often (he's been dead three years). I tell him stuff, like when my son was born, whjen I got a new job etc. I'm not expecting an answer of course, but it feels good when I do, like I'm keeping a promise or something.
billiefan, talk to your bro, it might help.

I, too, would like to extend my sympathy. I could not imagine losing my brother.
LK, that was heartless. Every one of us has a belief structure which allows us to cope with setbacks in his own way. To attack billie's beliefs in his time of need is crass and immature.
