I’m so sorry for your loss. My only brother died in ‘95 at the age of 51, from a massive heart attack.

Agreed no one at that age is suppose to die of the flu. Goodness! So sorry for your loss.

I’m very sorry to hear of the loss of your brother!

It seems there are kinds of flu viruses, like the ones of the last couple of years, that are harder on the young and strong.

I am sorry for your loss and know exactly how you are feeling. Three years ago, at age 44, my brother entered the hospital with breathing difficulties and 17 hours later he was dead. He had been sick with flu like symptoms and a cough and pain in his back between his shoulders. Doctors thought the pain may have been from an aneurysm and treated him for such. They were wrong. He coded a dozen times before he died. The autopsy revealed he died from a pulmonary embolism brought about by a blood disorder (Polycythemia Vera) that no one knew he had. Investigate further; it may not have been the flu. There is nothing that anyone can say or do right now to ease your grief but I can tell you from personal experience, it gets easier with the passage of time. Time heals all wounds, even this one.

I am so sorry for your loss. It hurts so much to lose the people we love, and when it is such a shock too, it just makes it worse. My sincerest condolences.

I have had a very bad flu for the last week myself (despite having received the flu shot) and now I wonder if I was a total fool to try and go it alone. I’m better now, so I guess I skated through. I’m so sorry about your brother.

I'm so sorry for your loss - how tragic, and how young! Prayers out.

Another reminder to live each day as if it will be your last, as someday that will be exactly the case!
