Kenny is 48 years old, 15 years older than me.
About 2 yrs ago he called me and told me he was coming over.
I had heard through the grapevine that he had been seen with a woman.
Not a big deal, except that we had never known Kenny to have a girl-friend.
I asked him if he was with his girl-friend and he said "Yes", I asked him
what her name was, he said "Crystal". At that point, I called
everyone in the immediate family and informed them that Ken had a girl-friend.
Everyone was astonished. My Dad told me that Ken had at _one time_ had a girl-friend overseas, when he was about 17. Please understand, girl-friend(or boy-friend for that matter) didn't ever enter into anyone's mind with regard to Kenny, he was just Ken and happy that way.
Ken and Crystal have been very happy. I moved Ken into Crystals house and we (I at least) expected a marriage would come of it (eventually).
Ken and Crystal went to Hawaii last weekend. Tuesday was Ken's birthday. Wednesday they were swimming and Crystal (from what I understand, I do not have all the details yet) inhaled some water. She was revived by the lifegaurds. While talking to the lifegaurds, she collapsed and went comatose.
She is comatose now.
I hurt for my brother, and I hurt for Crystal.
If you are a praying sort, please think of these two people who met mid-way through thier lives and found happiness together.
If you aren't (I don't have that kind of relationship with what I call God)please hope.
I am sorry to bring a bummer on you all.
P.S. Kenny and Crystal are both very active in local theater and they would be mad if I didn't help to promote it: Go support your local theater!
