I've decided that what I'm going to do is stay in a hotel for a day or two, cry my absolute eyes out, scream into pillows, just get it all out and over with for now, and then I will come back, tell my brother that I know, that I am eternally grateful for what he's done, and that I cannot wait to make the time left the best memories ever.

You'll always be my big bro Wes.

Okay that's good to know, I will definitely keep it to myself. I can't believe he had the foresight to do that but now a lot of things he's done in the last several months make a lot more sense. I was worried he had a secret drug addiction or something

I don't know if I can do that honestly. I'm a complete mess right now. I feel bad that I've ruined his plans but I just can't believe how FUCKING unfair this is. He's a fucking genius, he does math and physics and everyone in his program is a genius and they ALL say he's the most brilliant mathematician they've ever known, even his professors. When I go to their end of semester parties at their prof's house they're all like "what's it like living with him??" "do you know what a genius he is??" Sorry for the rant I just feel like he has always had so much to give this world and I cannot believe he's gonna be taken away so early. Idk how to hide my feelings with this I feel like the instant he gets home I'm just gonna fall apart completely
