Thank you so much for sharing your story Nic, and I'm so very sorry for your terrible loss. I lost my sister three years ago after she took her life while under the influence of a powerful sleep medication. It is the worst thing that has ever happened to each of the members of our family, and something that we have to live with every day, so I can understand how devastated you must be by the loss of your brother. I am sure your story will help others. RIP Lothar.
