FROM CALIFORNIA
May of 2015 I received a call from my nephew (my brother's son) and said that my brother is in a diabetic coma, my 3 kids and I rushed and drove from Laguna CA to Las Vegas NV, where we saw him laying with no idea that we are in the room, tears started from my children and I. I had to take a grip of myself and I called my nephew Omar who is a doctor in Chicago, not knowing he was traveling and in Egypt (thank God for FB).. .he called me right away and assured me that my brother needs two things to make him better, motivation and love to live. This is all me and my kids needed to hear, he came out of the coma 3 days later and we immediately took action and moved him from Vegas to CA to be with us, it has now been over a year and doctor's are amazed with his recovery. He stayed in my home from May to August were he was nurtured and loved by me and my kids, September of 2015 we moved him to an assisted living a few miles away from us where he is doing great and has made friends. My brother is a huge part of my family and I can't imagine my life without him.
