R.I.P. Leisa.. We will miss you

[NEMO]

i am sorry to hear this. my prayers are with you and your family

[IDCoconut]

Condolences go out to you and your family, Brett. It looks like you have a lot of good friends here and remember that it's ok to lean on them, especially at a time like this because they're also feeling a loss.

Stay strong and whatever you do, don't let this change your faith.

[The Youngn]

I've been keeping with this whole ordeal and i've never met you Brett but it hits me deeply when i read any of your updates. It just brings up the memories of the things i had to go through when people close to me passed. It's such a negative time and hard to bring positive light out of a situation like this but it really shows how strong you are deep inside for you to be able to let her go like you are saying. What I've done to help cope with the pain in the past is to remember one thing:

We can only be happy for them as they are going to a better place where they don't have to endure the pain and anguish that life of living on this planet brings. Some day down the line, we will be reunited with our loved ones where we will never have to experience pain again.

[Tracy]

I don't know what else to say except for that I am so sorry.

[buddha@TeamFX]

My prayers are with ya'll Brett!

[Papa_Smurf]

I'll be in history class @ 3:30, but i know this is all i'm going to think about.

be strong brett. you know you have the entire support of IA if you need anything.

my condolences go out to you and your family.

Your heart can be empty because you can't see her,

You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday,
or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.
You can remember her only that she is gone,
or you can cherish her memory and let it live on.
You can cry and close your mind,

smile, open your eyes, love and go on.”

just what was needed

I'm at a loss for words as well.

Brett, I called you a few days ago (before I heard of all this stuff) left you a message, but please disregard it now.

[kelly marie]

The only thing that I find very odd is this morning I woke up around 5am, and then fell back asleep and I then had a dream that I was walking with her in a building somewhere and she was telling me she was okay, that she is all better now and is fine. Then this all happens today, I in my heart believe that was Leisa who came to me and told me she is okay now and she knew I would tell everyone what she said. So if they confirm tomorrow that she is brain dead, I will per her wish I will let her go tomorrow night or Wednesday.

that is truly amazing.. it gave me chills and tears! brett, you have been strong though this whole thing, it's honorable. we still have you and leisa in our prayers and will continue to do so. however, take this dream to heart. she is going to be in a place that we can only dream of and you WILL be reunited one day, forever. she gave you the confirmation you needed and you can rest assured that God will hold her close to his side. now is the time to lean on your friends and family as they are all feeling the grief. keep your faith strong and know that you have so many people here that love you and will do whatever you need to help you through this. remember that she will always be with you.

sorry to hear that man.....

[IronEagle]

This is shocking to read. I haven't been on the site since the 9th and am in disbelief. Godspeed Leisa.

jamie, that was very touching. thank you for posting that.

brett, i have to work the evenings this weekend, but i'll do whatever i can to stop by before i go to work. this is a sad day, no doubt, but let your mind be at peace because she's going to a MUCH better place than this disgrace of a planet we call earth. no more pain, no more anguish, its all gone. brett keep her in your heart always and remember her in everything you do. the love you kids share is one of a kind. yeah, we all give you a hard time about being so old, but everyone that has ever met you knows that you'll ALWAYS be a kid at heart, even when you're 80 years old! you and leisa have always been such an inspiration to everyone you come in contact with. even in this topic, you can see so many ppl that have never even met either of you and even they have been influenced by you or leisa at one point or another. stay strong, my brother! stay strong!

[The Ren]

Brett,
As Im crying reading all this I am at a total loss for words. I feel blessed to have had leisa and yourself apart of my life.. I will remember all the great times I was able to spend with you two and am blessed to have been in the presence of true love.. Cause I for sure saw it between you two. She let you know she is ok now and can go peacefully knowing she has a man who did and forever will love her with all of his heart and no woman could want anything less then that. I am so amazed at how strong you have been and I know leisa is proud of you too. I am just a quick drive away and a phone call away and Im here for you whenever you need me. Along with everyone else I will be there this weekend.. Even if its just for you to have another shoulder to cry on.. im there.

[SixSquared]

I can't believe this... I am so sorry, Brett. As Jaime's words reflected, the good times you had with her will live on forever, as will your love for her, and the shared love we all have for her. I just got home to read this, and I'm just in shock. Life is unfair, and the worst things happen to the best people. Your strength through this whole ordeal has been amazing. Much love to you and your family, and keep your strength with you to share with those who still need it. Leisa is in a good place, as she let you know this morning. You're both lucky to be surrounded by a lot of love, strength, and good people in your family and friends. I'm going to try to make it out this weekend to say goodbye.

Brett, I don’t know what else to say that hasn’t been said already. I am extremely sorry for your loss. Every time I read your posts on her updates I get teary eyed. I can’t imagine what you must be feeling. My condolences go out to your families.
