Oh my God my brother just died. [View all]

We were fighting for 2 years and not talking until my cousin called me and told me he had cancer. 'So I called him and we made up. He even apologized to me for something ..... it doesn't matter. So me and some other cousins were going week after next to have a family reunion. But he all of a sudden took a turn for the worse and died last night

I have no family excerpt cousins and one aunt now. I hate this. I can't begin to tell you how alone I feel.
