My Family Tragedy: Passing of Showbizrn's Brother

Published

I share my family loss with the Allnurses.com community for guidance and insight.

My brother died alone in his apartment.

No one called 911.

The day before

a neighbor heard him moaning

all day in his aprtment.

Why didn't she call 911?

The super called to him

under his door.

He never came to the door.

Why didn't she call 911?

Why didn't they call 911?

Every one has their time

to leave this life.

My family and I question the circumstances

surrounding my brother's death

and pray that he has moved on

to the next level.

Sincerely and Blessings,

From the Family and friends of SHOWBIZRN.

Wow...very very strange. Why would they do this?

Do you see what I am talking about now?

Thanks for letting us know about this, I'm very sorry :(

Ummm...looking for attention? Unstable? Is this person really passed and the family letting us know, but then again, as mentioned..good observation on the style of their post is the same. Many people don't realize they have a certain way of writing. I know I do.

Wonder why this person is not making anymore comments.

I reviewed showbiz previous posts, Very true, same style of writing! Also, definately a female, talked about a boyfriend she had during school etc. Very strange!!!

I guess I'd rather take a chance on being duped than to find out I had assumed the worst and offended innocent family members who were kind enough to communicate with us in their time of grief.

If family members made the post, it could be they have a few things on their minds right now besides giving us an update.

I am really confused about this post. At first I thought the OP was speaking of their brother. Then I took it to mean a family member was posting under ShowbizRN account to say "he" died.

But when I went ShowbizRN profile to look at past posts made, ShowbizRN is a women. Has made posts referencing past gyn surgery and being married to a woman and much more to confirm that ShowbizRN is a woman, not a man as stated in the original post saying "he" died.

Does anyone know more about this? Seems strange to me. I am not trying to insensitive just trying to make sense.

Noticed the same thing and am confused as you are.

What I am commenting on is that if you go to Showbizrn profile and read past posts, showbiz is a WOMAN! The Op is stating they are a family member and showbiz-their brother has died.In showbiz posts-SHE is a WOMEN.

Also when reading past posts BY showbiz, the style of writing is the same as in the original post on this thread. I am not the only one wondering about this, some of us have been PMing because something seems not right.

I am also trying to comprehend...did ShowbizRN pass away? I, also, am not trying to be unsympathetic...I thought that I saw the post originally as "My Family Tragedy"...without saying "Passing of ShowbizRN" a few days ago, and thinking that someone was found deceased in the home. I just hope that we get clarity. Either way, I am sorry about the death of a member or relative of a member.

I agree, and in no way am I not sorry for anyone's loss, as I said, I lost my brother this way. I just also don't want to be duped! Just too many facts that lead toward something strange, showbiz is a female, this "family person" said it was a mail, and the same type of posting type.

Hopefully, someone will post back and clarify. I just want the empathy to be rendered to the correct person.

i will err on the side of caution, and believe there has been a tragic loss of life.

for those who are skeptical, i find it nearly as tragic, to think someone would write such a post as a means of gaining attention.

both situations deserve our sympathies.

I understand that you would think someone wouldn't write such a post for gaining attention, but i have seen it done many times. Not to this extent.

Just an honest question by some of us members to be sure...nothing insulting about it. Just concerned and looking for clarity..that is all.

I understand that you would think someone wouldn't write such a post for gaining attention, but i have seen it done many times. Not to this extent.

i didn't say that.

i said that in the event the post was written as a means of seeking attention, that in itself, is also pretty darned tragic.

i personally find it tremendously sad, if that is the case.

I am just hoping for clarity, eventually, and as leslie stated, either situation is tragic...
