Ep #65 - Today is the 5 year anniversary of my brother John’s passing, and I wanted to share his story in long form.
This is a bonus episode, so bear with me as I take my time, and talk about some funny stories growing up, share his never quit attitude, and why his life was a gift.
John was my older brother by 3 years, and passed away at 36 from stage 4 colon cancer. I wanted a place to share his story and legacy so anyone could get to know him.
I’m also sharing this for anyone who has walked through hard things like:
Tragic Car Accidents
Traumatic Brain Injury
Stroke
Losing a Child, Sibling, or Parent
Being a Caretaker
I talk about being teased as a kid, the crazy dares he used to make me do, how he persevered and obtained a masters degree with a brain injury, and even finding the love of his life, his wife Bonnie.
This is the story, from my perspective, of John Frederick Brauning V.
