[@petershaw2102]

What a band and a great singer. This song still brings a tear to my eye and I remember my brother who was born with spina bifida. He was given six weeks to live so mum and dad brought him home to be with his family. His family and his determination kept him alive for 12 years. He could not feed himself, walk or talk. No control over bodily functions but still managed a smile for those that cared for him. For 12 years he either laid on his bed or someone cradled him. He loved to go for a drive in the car when he was placed on a bed in the back of the family station wagon, he always new he would get an icecream at the end of the journey. He was not heavy or a burden on his family he was my brother, and I will never forget him.

[@briandinning8361]

Love your story, so touching sir! I have many physical ailments and problems now in my age being 52 now and i know my own father who is 72 is my big brother also who feels that i am not too heavy for him since he has taken care of me so Much after going through four different surgeries on my right ankle and knee and this song really speaks volumes to me of the great example of being Christ like he has shown me all these past 14 years. Thanks for your post here

My 2 brothers and i drove far away to a ranch in Rosarito, Mexico, up in the mountains, we were in our 20's i already had two children that i took with me. The restrooms were outside in a hole with a little roof...water needed to be carried from a well down the hill. It was to help my brother Rodolfo to clean from using morphine. My older brother Benjamin carried him to the restroom on his back at anytime Rodolfo needed to go..he was weak and was not able to walk...i asked my brother Benjamin, isn't he too heavy for you (Benjamin was also tiny) he responded to me, no, I'll do it, he is my brother. God i cry everytime i hear this song. My mom was already gone. And it was a successful trip Rodolfo is now 67 , Benjamin is 70 and me 64. Lord is great, ❤

Both of our parents died when I was a baby and he was a 10 year old little boy. My aunt and uncle raised all 6 of my siblings along with there 8 children so we are truly blessed. I am so thankful that inspite of all of my brother's short comings, I chose him as my best man in my wedding. My brother suffered from a stroke and kidney failure when he was 45 years old. I was there for him every step of the way. His burdens weren't too heavy for me because he's my brother! Tears are flowing from my eyes now as I listen to this song of my childhood because I'm still missing my dear brother who got his wings in the year 2000.

@@jerirollins414 I can confirm as a French speaking individual, I always kiss and salute my loved ones as if it was the last time I might be seeing them. The son of a friend got mad at his mom after she drove him for a 5 hours road travel. When he got out of the car, he said he hated her and left. She would die less then 15 minutes later in a frontal crash with a truck... How can life not be unbearable after that? Our loved ones are never a burden. Sadly, we often discover it once they have passed away.

I lost my younger brother in 2007.He had been dealing with drugs and alcohol for a long time. My family didn't have the patience to try to help him, but I was always there for him, no matter what. He finally decided it was time to quit and was in a rehab when he passed . We were on an outing together when it happened. After his death I was using music to help with my grief and found this song. I took it as my tribute to him.I play it quite often when I am thinking of him .

My father was a drunk who beat my mother and took off when i was 15 and he died alone, pneumonia was the official reason but really the booze did him in. He sort me out and came into the sports bar i was working at and tried to say sorry, i was 21-22 and so angry at him and basically threatened to knock his head off. That was the last time i saw my dad. I'm 37 and iv'e been married for 11 years now and have 2 kid's of my own, i can understand some of the pressures he faced by having to provide for a family. I'm sorry dad i can't forgive you for what you did, but i'm also sorry i didn't give you chance to talk to me and even though you were not the best i should have been the better man and let you have your say.

The fact that you have written what you wrote about your father and your family struggle, indicates that you learned from the worst part of your life. Even if you had listened to your father that night it may not have changed anything about either of your lives but the fact that it makes you more tolerant of the stresses you have as a father means that he basically named you Sue.

I was fortunate enough to visit him the Sunday prior and we had a lovely chat and I got his photo album and took him down memory lane which he certainly appreciated. His wish was to live his last days at home with his wonderful wife and other family on his wife’s side. The hospital that he had been attending lent the family a hospital bed for as long as he needed it which was made his last few days very comfortable. This song was played at the funeral first and was so applicable and set a celebration mood for the whole service so Thank you to to the HOLLIES as the day was shared in a happy way

He is like an infant, non verbal, cortically blind, spastic quadriplegic with severe scoliosis affecting his internal organs that are twisted. Uncontrolled seizures, jg tube fed and just a few months ago, he got a tracheotomy. He is the oldest of 6 and all of my children have always put him before themselves, as have I. Quite simply, he’s the best thing that ever happened to my family… for the 4 generations that are here, we know how blessed we are. He’s happy, lights up a room with squeeky toys and noise makers… simply put, a gift. I think he was about 5 when I realized how significant this song is to my family as his younger brother at that time, their relationship as it is defined by this song. 4 more children later( all adults now) and it’s the song I’m choosing for them when he passes away….

And when light fills the room, the child is filled with darkness. He knows that every time this happens he’s moved just a little closer to that darkness outside. The darkness outside is what the old folks have been talking about. It’s what they’ve come from. It’s what they endure. The child knows that they won’t talk any more because if he knows too much about what’s happened to them, he’ll know too much too soon, about what’s going to happen to him.” ― James Baldwin, Sonny's Blues

The song was particularly applicable to the Vietnam era, where servicemen were literally putting their wounded buddies on their backs, and carrying them out of harm. I think of this song every time I see the Vietnam Memorial in Washington, DC which shows a wounded soldier on his comrade's back. I was fortunate to have missed VietNam; I was 18 and had a draft number, but the war ended. Six years later, however, I was commissioned in the U.S. Navy Medical Service Corps, and served 20 years. In today's world faced with a COVID-19 crisis, I see this song applicable to the dispute going on between upstate NY and downstate NY regarding sharing of ventilators. Given the shortage of ventilators, we must help our brothers where the disease is most prevalent.

This song must rank as one of the most inspirational songs of all time especially when sung with such intensity by Alan Clark.God bless You.

[@petnut53]

We did play this at my brother Kenneth's funeral, he died 08/06/1979. He was on the way home from watching movies with friends, and drunk kids ran him off the road and his truck flipped over on top of him. Today happens to be the 37th anniversary of his death.

[@maryrawson4324]

Patty, That is so sad..I bet you miss him so much..I belive that those that have gone before us are in the most beautiful place called heaven. x

[@petnut53]

I agree with you. He's watching out for me and the rest of my family from Up There. I only wish he would have been able to watch his nieces and nephews grow up here on earth. He was only 20, and my oldest girl was only two.

[@jennifursun3303]

so sad for you. my family and i were hit by drunk driver, no one was killed but it left a lasting memory on a young mind. i've been called goody two shoes cause i never drank(the stuff doesn't like my body) but that accident and loving several people when i grew up who had problems with the stuff made me understand i could do with out that crutch. God Bless

[@barbaraThomas-g9j]

I am the only one left of 4. I had 2 brothers and they were both younger than me. I wish I had been closer to them and I think of them more since hearing this song. Thank you so much for reminding me that "He ain't heavy, He's my brother"

[@Pabikermike]

[@user-xf3bk4ze2i]

[@desbrooker]

[@kurdtacolbain731]

Two of my brothers took their own lives, on 12/06/00 and 15/04/11. And that has been a heavier load than anything.

[@SantinaCrolla]

My brother took his own life on 20/07/2014. I played this song for him on facebook a few days later. Not a day goes by when I don't think of him. No warning, no note, nothing. Life is so cruel! RIP to them all x

[@chriskirilov7030]

Hard to accept those acts , but they are the only persons to know why they went so far.....This world is far of been perfect and certain decisions we make come too late....

[@lillianwilliams5510]

This applies to sisters, children, parents and relatives. Brings tears to my eyes. My oldest brother was killed 57 years ago and I still grieve him.

[@Figgypooh]

I was standing outside my uncle’s funeral talking to my dad, saying goodbye to everyone. He was holding my uncle’s ashes, which he had been holding for a while at that point. So, thinking he might want some help, I honestly asked him, “Is that heavy?” Without missing a beat, as if he had been waiting for the set up all day, my dad replied, “He ain’t heavy, he’s my brother!” I laughed hysterically. Seriously, true story. Think about that probably once a month.

[@Cat-hn2on]

That's a great story! My brother always made people laugh like that. He would come up with some zingers at the drop of a hat.

[@cianbebhfionnsiah1]

That is hilarious. Brilliant inspired moment that come to us at these sad moments. Great song, I had it played at my brother’s funeral last week.
