Monthy-girl, I am thinking about you and your brother and wanted to say that it is the quality of the life today that matters most. The quality of the times you are together and the stories you can share. These are the things that matter when all is said and done. I don't know your situation but try not to be afraid of his cancer and the treatment. The treatment will probably have some not so great side affects. However, if you can speak openly about them and maybe even crqack a joke or two it normalizes everything for the two of you. He is on another journey in his life and you are his traveling companion. By the way, please make sure there are walnuts or Macadamia nuts in those brownies okay? Take care.
