Hello to all. For those of you that are new and don't know me...I am
Kim, I lost my brother James to AEA in Nov. 2000. He was 37 years old.
Things here are going ok. Today is actually Jimmy's birthday. I just
spent the morning with Mom crying her eyes out. She is struglling with
the idea that we ( me, my brother and mother...and maybe my father
however he never talks about it) are the only ones that remember it is
his birthday. No one elses even acknowledges it or talks about it. I
am sure a lot of you guys feel the same way too sometimes. it just
seems no one is affected like we are. We think of Jimmy every day of
our lifes and not everyone else does........that sucks.......
Mom also said she feels like everyone thinks she should just get over
it by now. Me, my mom and brother talk about Jimmy all the time. We
celebrate his life, laughter and sense of humor. I miss him so much
