  I grew up in a middle-class family. Dad worked hard to support our family and Mom tried to save money while making sure we had enough food to eat and clothes to wear. One of their greatest desires was to raise decent, loving children who had an opportunity to finish college.

  My brother, Gene, never hesitated to learn new things. He had an artistic hand, so he went into fine arts for a while. He also did a lot of screens about computers. He became so good at it that the school hired him to teach there after he completed his studies. My younger brother also pursued computers, following in his footsteps.

Gene did not have a history of any health problems from his very young age to adulthood. One day, he came home from teaching, ate his dinner and went to bed. That evening,my "healthy" brother died suddenly of a cardiac arrest. My parents were extremely sad.
