Wondering if Kieron is awake grasping any memory he might have, and if so if perhaps it's a memory of him and me.
A recent one occured 10 days ago on his 48th birthday, when the two of us and our mom celebrated the special occasion eating his cake, and drinking a cold beer. He didn't/couldn't say a word but flashed several smiles. No doubt he was happy and although his disease makes these types of moments fleeting, it was special.
Noone knows how much we need him these days. What is Picks? How/why is he one of the few?

I think about you everyday big brother. Enough time has passed that I feel self conscious talking about my sadness. There is not a day that goes by that somehow my mind travels to you. Kieron, I miss you more than I thought I could miss and I do not know what to do with the blackness that occupies me. I am so sorry. I am so f......sorry.
The story of your brother is very, very touching.
My mother passed away 3 years ago after a 4 year battle with Pick's Disease -- so I can related completely.
If his experience is anything like that of my mother's, he understands it all - and will until the end - even though he can't coummunicate to you in words. I have no doubt that his eyes do the speaking for him him.
Enjoy every moment you have with him. May God bless your borther, your family and friends.
I wonder where you are and what you are doing.
I miss you so!
I love you, my beloved son.
