					<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I lost my brother, Mike, to cancer in 2005. He had just turned 30.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s too young.</p>
<div id="attachment_4011" style="width: 575px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img data-recalc-dims="1" fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-4011" class="size-full wp-image-4011" title="Mike and Titus" src="https://i0.wp.com/www.jeffrandleman.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Mike-Titus.jpg?resize=565%2C365" alt="Mike and Titus" width="565" height="365" /><p id="caption-attachment-4011" class="wp-caption-text">Mike with my son, Titus</p></div>
<p>Today, he would have been 37 years old.</p>
<p>Even though several years have passed, I still sometimes grab the phone to give him a call.</p>
<p>And then I realize what I&#8217;m doing. There&#8217;s a hole there that cannot be filled.</p>
<p>However, I do have a hope. I know that I will see him again one day. And I&#8217;ll be able to catch up on all the &#8220;Happy Birthdays&#8221; that I can&#8217;t give him right now.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m thankful for that.</p>
<p><span style="color: #000033;"><em><strong>Happy Birthday, Mike! Love you! Miss you!</strong></em></span></p>
