A word about my blog .....

I'm using this blog to keep notes on my life and experiences, plus to keep track of my own recovery from a stroke (December 2006).

For those of you who were not aware, my brother, John, died on February 10, 2010. His remains were cremated and interred at Green Hills Memorial Park.

My brother, John, died today. He was just three months short of his 52nd birthday.

Last night, his blood pressure started dropping. The nurses at the long-term care facility gave him medication to raise it, but it continued to drop. They called 9-1-1. Paramedics stabilized him and moved him to the ER at Long Beach Community Hospital. A few hours later, his heart stopped beating and they were unable to resuscitate him.
