My brother died

Some of you so kindly wrote words of comfort to me when I shared that my brother was dying. He died on Friday. How is it that despite expecting it it was still a terrible shock? I had left him the evening before, and 15 hours later he was dead. I still can't work out how his body wasn't him. He still looked the same as he had when I left. I keep asking myself how and why.

So sorry for your loss
It is such a crap illness, my mum died from it last year and now my dad has prostate cancer, we don't yet know how badly - can't bear the thought of losing him too.
