Brother

My estranged brother has had a stroke.  This is both odd and not odd.  It is odd because he is young, only 17 months older than me.  On the other hand, he is morbidly obese and he leads a very unhealthy lifestyle.  (You can read more about my brother here and here).

He remains unresponsive in a hospital bed, about to be shifted to a different hospital where a neurologist can examine him.  Initially, we were told that the prognosis is grave.  Currently, I have no idea and am just waiting to get the updates.

ZF that is terrible even if you are not close to him.. Its not easy watching anyone in your family be sick like that and yes it is his fault for not living healthy but you cant change a tigers spots..

Estranged or not, it's tough news... Hope he comes out of it OK.
