I calmed down enough to talk. I spoke to his wife first. she told me that his body is not able to produce red blood cells and when they are given to him they eaten up right away by his white blood cells. I did talk to him, but not for long, his throat hurts from the treatment he is getting now. ...and how are you feeling about it now?
How is your brother and his wife/family taking it, and you?
What is your brothers' prognosis? Anything positive?
My thoughts and love are with you all.

Thanks for the update. So would an immune suppressant help?

I feel sick to my stomach when I think about him dying. He was my best friend growing up. We have never raised our voices to each other, never got in a fight. He has always been the one person I could trust, until I met my husband. I haven't even prayed. I have candles lit, but am avoiding thinking about it with no other distractions cause I have not felt strong enough to face the pain. I do plan on doing that tonight after everyone goes to bed. I need to feel the pain to my core so I can start to function about it better.
My brothers wife is keeping upbeat and hopeful. She is the one talking to all the family about things. My brother is scared. They are waiting for results from the bone marrow scrape that will hopefully reveal the cause so they know how to treat this. I have no idea how they will get his body to start producing its own red cells again.
On top of it all, I just learned a dream I had came to pass, about a little two year old boy who died by drowning. In the dream I merged with the mom when she fell to the ground sobbing of her sons death. All this emotion from that and my brother is overwhelming me today. Been cleaning my house like a mad woman to keep my mind off of it so I can still function as a Mom and Wife.
Thank you for the thoughts of love for us all.

If I could give you calming words to your brother, you and your family, there is nothing to fear in death, other than the unknown in this present moment. The body fails and our true self is free from the bondage of the physical body. We are embraced with the loving warmth and that there is no more suffering of pain and all the problems faced in the material world just slip away. Comfort, love, peace is experienced. I say this with the utmost sincerity.

I know all this Yoda, and thank you for the reminder of it. I appreciate your sincere words.
I have started saying three times in a row at various times with all my being, "My brother is producing red blood cells." This one done in a healing attempt for him. To my surprise, it made me feel better too.

last night i dreamt i was a red blood cell in my brothers body and was very happy. i thought another was playing chase with me, then i realized it wanted to destroy me. it was a white blood cell and i could feel its need to destroy. so i went to his immune system for help and then i woke up.
the cancer treatment was not effective yesterday with him and he is currently getting another blood transfusion. Still waiting for lab results of bone marrow.
i didn't give myself any affirmations, i fell asleep crying. today i had to help my mom and get the house cleaned. tonight i will do affirmations for myself and my brother and tomorrow i am gonna for a walk and mediate on a bench high on the mountain that over looks a river.

last night i dreamt about a stone rolling across my yard. this morning my brother tells me he passed a kidney stone at 2 am. his sugar is way out of whack now and he is now getting insulin every two hours. the blood transfusion he got yesterday didn't help again. he says that his red blood cells are not being born. so when i meditate tonight, i am gonna change my wording into them being born in his body. tell ya what, i don't feel strong. i think his wife is strong. she is a cancer survivor herself and hasn't left my brothers side since he got sick. wish i could visit him, but this stupid covid lock down wont let us see him.
