My brother's friend from 5th grade passed away from cancer at the age of 11 on June 30, 2020. Unfortunately, we are just now hearing about it as his parents never told our parents, but it's possible that they were dealing with a lot during these past few years.
It wasn't until my mother tried searching for his name and found a page that his family put up to commemorate him.
My brother, he's not like me, he doesn't wear his feelings on his sleeves and doesn't share them as I do. But this truly hit him hard. My brother is 12 now and rarely cries unless he's badly physically hurt. It's hard for people to read his emotions and I'm a bit worried about him.
This was a good friend of his and I know what it's like to lose someone you care about. Micah's passing really hit me hard and when I heard about this, I broke down in tears. I've been watching a TikTok trend where angels welcome young children who passed into Heaven and help them feel better. He's in a better place now, she's in a better place now. They're all in a better place now.
So keep my brother and this boy's family in your prayers. It's been a while since his untimely passing but I'm sure they're still grieving all the same. Keep my brother in your prayers as well as he is young and I'm so sorry that he had to deal with this at such a young age. Don't worry about me at all. Thank you.
