It's a poignant day.
Deeply personal, sorrowful yet, very beautiful. It's very loving!
Grief is the price for love.
I am a raging alcoholic, i quit drinking 14 years ago. I often reflect on the lives that i didnt cut short. I cry thinking who i could have hurt or killed. Makes my heart hurt to listen about your loss. You are such a st
Love you man we all are struggling with things seen and unseen. Be proud of your fight to be sober, it's not easy. ❤ Stay strong your loved❤
Lost my brother 21 years ago in a house fire. Born the same day he passed. Thank You for for sharing your story.❤
I lost my son . I thank you all for speaking to all our hearts . This is a healing , much needed for all .
💙💙
I’m so sorry . U have a beautiful family. Lots of love 🩵
I lost my son as well and today is his birthday and it's still hard😢
I am so very sorry for your loss. I thought this video by the Hoeflinger Family, regarding Brian's passing, was very helpful. I hope your sorrow lessens each day.
My oldest daughter died from cancer at age 40, four years ago.
It is important to let us talk about her and share her stories. It allows us to acknowledge her and continue our love for her because the love never dies. That is what makes it difficult. I find myself still loving her and when my heart hurts, I know I was blessed to have her in my life.
I lost my 19 year old brother in a drunk driving accident my cousin was driving everyone walked out of the car except my brother, his wife was 9 months pregnant with my niece. Thank you for sharing your story ❤
Your son Kevin is such a wise young man, you must be so proud of him ❤
He is. I enjoy listening to him.
Those of us who don’t have an outlet or other family to talk to about loss come and watch videos like this in moments of great clarity ❤
We agree 💙
Having an outlet and sharing is so important
@@doctorhoeflingeryes🙏😒
I couldn't agree with comment this more. As the last person in my immediate family that is living (with multiple brain aneurysms), I buried all my family members...two of which was my beloved sister and brother in law and their precious dog all who were killed instantly by a drunk driver who t-boned them going an estimated 82 mph. Their internal injuries were massive but I was told that they did not suffer as their death's were immediate because both had C2 vertebra fractures. I can only pray that's the case. It haunts me to have to wonder if my sweet sister had to lay their and suffer. This occurred only three weeks after we buried our endearing mother that passed from cancer. The person that killed them was a woman that went to school with my nephew (their son) this was her 2nd drunk driving offense. She was sentenced to 6 to 15 yrs was released after 6 because of good behavior. Then... 6 month's later my nephew who was on a bowling league walked past the open bar area and who does he sitting there drinking? Yes, the woman who took his mother and father's life's. Jeez, let that sink in. He called me in tears and I was outraged. I immediately contacted her probation officer. I don't understand the why of this woman apparently not learning a thing after this. She should not be on the streets. It's already been proven she's a danger to herself and to society. Sorry, I felt a huge need to vent... :(
I’m sorry for your loss. I lost my mother at the age of 10. I’m Catholic and believe that eternal life begins when we die. Grief is so difficult and grief without faith in God in unimaginable to me. The day of my mother’s passing was special. Each anniversary of her passing is special. These days are special to me because I know that she is with God in Heaven and experiencing great love.
Dear Hoeflinger family, thank you for reminding us to live with mòre care, kindness and love.
You have also reminded me to continue to honour the people in my life who have passed. Thank you for this.
Lost my son also on March 13, 2012. Went to sleep and never woke up. Your podcast makes a positive impact on me. So sorry for your loss.
Thanks for sharing for your loss. My husband committed suicide in 2006 and we were almost married for 30 years. I have grief anger and just trying to forget the whole process. There was a lot of good things that my husband did but there was a lot of bad things that he did. I have a cat that was a kitten at one point and somebody threw about five kittens out in the street and I was outside with about three women at the time one person she said I’ll take that one so we had about four kittens to ask people who were coming in the hotel that I was staying out at the time. And we got the other three that people actually took, praise the Lord. So there was one left. And she was so little like she was like so small in both of my hands. And I had rescued a dog and his name was Stanley. And I also kept thinking is I can’t take this little kitten in there he might just bite her? Saying all that I did it anyway. I just laid that kitten on him. So then I started calling my dog, prince Stanley and the little kitten. I called her queen, Sheba, and anybody who asked about them I would always call them that way. To make a long story short Stanley died. Well, I had to put him down, he gotten really sick. And he needed to be put down. And you were talking about Dogs feeling a loss. Cats do the same thing. for about a year she kept pulling her hair out of her skin that her skin by bold in certain spots of her body. saying all that it’ll be two years coming this June 2024. That Stanley died. And queen Sheba is, so much better, and in my heart, I wanted to speak Stanley‘s name. But I’m pretty sure that would’ve affect her even more with her depression that I know she was going through at the time. So yes, animals cats or dogs I think there is same in the sense of a loss. They laid together every day. She would pounce on him like a basketball. I miss my Stanley so much! It makes me wanna cry when I think about it. Not that he is a human. I guess it was really hard because Sheba, missed him so much. I’m sorry for your loss with Brian. Because I could feel the pain. And I know it’s different when somebody commits suicide. Unexpectedly. It has affected my life. I did not do what you guys did. Having that support. When my husband died. I decided to walk away from everybody. And secluded myself. so here it is 2024. I don’t think that much about it. But I have two kids. One is it who was eight months pregnant. And she was the one that found her dad and it’s a horrible situation. But I will say after all these years I don’t think about him every day. It was a bad situation With our relationship, that makes me not want to think about him. I do believe in God. And I have forgiven him as God has forgiven me! And when I have the thoughts of negativity like you guys say to think positive. This year I started to talk to the kids openly of the good things that I remember That we all enjoyed as a family. So sharing what good is awesome. I hope that you get your strength from God. Because the kindness and the love that you’re sharing is a good thing and God is good. Thank you so much for sharing and God bless you. You’re in my prayers right now in Jesus name amen.🙏
Hugs to all who have lost a child. I lost my daughter on February 1st, 2014 which was 5 days before her 26th birthday. She passed from Crohn's disease which she fought for 7 years. I heard so many nice things from her friends at the funeral. It made me so proud of her. Thank you for sharing this. February 1st is a tough day for me too but we were blessed to be the parents of these awesome children we had that have passed.
Brian and I share a birthday and I was A surgical tech and patient coordinator for a neurosurgeon for over 20 years. Loved seeing you share your humanity, love and your reflections when talking about Brian’s life. He is loved and you will always remember that. Thank you for sharing this with us.
I am so sorry. My friend lost her daughter. I do not think she was ever the same.
I’m a PA for the last nearly 25 yrs. I had a spinal cord injury 4 years prior to starting my PA program. And since starting work I too have tried to remember my SCI annually, even though it isn’t a day most would think to celebrate. But I totally get your remembering the day Brian died! I think its an important part of dealing with loss
My father died suddenely 7 years ago and I found this two weeks before his anniversary. While I know it's different to losing a child, I really needed this. My default is isolation and retreat as it still feels so real and I can't deal with people.
I thank you for sharing.
I came across your youtube channel 2 weeks ago after getting into a terrible car accident with my kids. Terrifying moment, still dont know how we came out alive. Your videos have really helped overcome my trauma and to see life differently. Thank you for inspiring us. Sending prayerful thoughts your way as we all remember Brian ❤ today. Thank you again for all you do. Stay blessed and strong.
He was raised by good parents and this is a small way to keep him alive in your❤ Your grief podcast was very positive. You and your family's grief is palpable. Could not finish watching. But I believe with all my heart your son is watching and loving you all back.
So very sorry for your loss. 😢 Words cannot describe how sad I feel for your family. Your positively on your channel has been very encouraging and helpful. I enjoy your RUclips channel and the recent onevwhere you were operating using OPERATION GAME and the baby was making a bit of noise and you kept saying..."quiet in the operating room". Oh my, husband and I burst out laughing.
Thank you for your sharing and for you just being you. Saying many prayers at this time. 🙏
It's important to remember a special person. Thank you for keeping Brian alive by these posts. ❤
A day to just be. Surviving b cancer I know how short life can change. I lost my brother on 1/20/2018. I’m from Ohio. Cleveland. I like hearing from Brian’s brother. As a sibling u feel you’ve lost 1/2 of you. God Bless
I am sure Brian is proud of how you are healing as a family, way to model something that can tear families apart. You'll see him again ❤❤❤
I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my son Will It’s almost 5 years-it’s very hard , we have masses near his birthday, and holidays to send up some love. Will always did smile and had so much joy. It’s good that you elaborate on the nice memories, thanks for sharing ! ❤
Thank you for sharing your beloved Brian's memories with us on Brian's transition day.🙏❤️💚❤️
Dr. Hoeflinger is such a nice person. I really enjoy watching his channel. It's why I subscribed😃👍🏽🎉.
Im so sorry for your loss, Dr. and Mrs Hoeflinger, my condolences are with you and my prayers🙏🏽💜❤️
Thank you so very much and thanks for subscribing to our channel 😊
@@doctorhoeflinger + You're welcome sir🙂
Thank you so much. Hearing from all of you, especially Mom is helpful. ❤
My sincere sympathy. This never gets easy. I’ve lost people too, both family and close friends. You’ll be in my prayers. Love from just over the border in Temperance, MI. PS- I firmly believe a kind word is never lost. His ability to show love in this way was a true blessing in this world. GBY all 🙋♀️🙏❤️🫂
You folks are a lovely family. We never get over a loss we only manage it better. And I/we don't want to forget. We want to keep memories.
Good morning H family.I lost a cousin due to drunk driving, Tim was a student at Penn State when he and two roommates decided to drive drunk. Life will never b the same! I feel ur awareness of this issue will save lives.So very sorry for the loss of ur beloved son Brian. Great to see Archer is soo loved,Brian would of been the best uncle! Your family is honest and raw with emotions, which most people try to avoid. Brian would b so proud how u have honored and talk about the person he was, even the smallest of memories. Take care of each other !
I love that - “don’t think in terms of why he died, but why he lived’. My personal experience with grief, once the gut wrenching phase passes things change over time. Anytime I remembered the person I lost I was filled with sorrow & pain. After many years I now only remember the good times, the joy and laughter is what comes mind most often. I will always miss that person and cherish their memories but I can honestly say that over time, it did get better in some ways. My prayer for your family is that you feel joyful when you think of him, may fond memories help heal your hearts. Many Blessings and thank you for sharing your story with all of us. Prayers & Blessings 🙏
This was such a touching podcast. I think someone said it best that it’s nice for those of us who don’t have someone to share these feelings with. I needed this today as I approach the anniversary of my dear brother’s death on 2/4. I was so sad and you all brought up so many things I think of, too. Thanks for sharing your stories with us.
Thanks for sharing. We are sorry to hear about your brother, sending you love 💙

I’m so sorry for your loss.
Thank you for sharing these feelings and wisdom with us. You are a very special family.
Losing someone is painful. I created a memory box of my loved one. I still miss him but my memories have become the gift he gave me. I look at them as blessings. Im grateful for the time I had with him however it wasn't long enough.
Thank you 🙏🏻 RIP Ernie 💔 April 14, 2020
💙
Thank you..God Bless, could almost feel Brian there with you..well done
Yes. Always be kind. Stay positive. You never know what the other person is going through. I always compliment people.
Brian was here for a reason. That reason is evident in all of you. Taking his lifetime and extending it, by telling his story. He was here for a reason and sometimes it isn’t to die at an older age.
Dr Hoeflinger, you’re a kind and gentleman a gentle man doing big things along with Mrs and son. Godspeed to all of you. Never will forget, however we learn to incorporate our losses in a different way ❤
Thank you for sharing the story of the loss of your son, the loss of your brother.
So sorry you had to go through that, Rest in Peace Brain 🙏
I am sorry for your loss. Praying for your strength and resilience. Brian left this world a better place 😊 To a life well lived. Bless you all
God Bless the 3 of you for sharing this with us ❤
God bless this family.
I cried while viewing this mainly because I cannot fathom such pain nor do I ever want to meet such grief. As a parent, there can be no greater loss. I empathize because it was such a huge loss for your family, and although you have survived and gone through years of different phases and emotions, it remains an such immense loss. I am thankful you have learned to live again, but the fact you had no choice but to experience it does break my heart for you as a family. I cannot fathom anyone saying or alluding to "get over it," or "I don't want to hear it." 🤯 Who does that??!! I don't care if it's been 50 years, the fact you need to talk/cry about your late son should be enough for a friend &/or co-worker to consciously empathize and simply listen if they can't hold your hand or hug you. Your family is awesome❤ I am thrilled you have a precious grandson who will bring nothing but joy into your lives🥰 What an immensely great blessing!!!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I am glad to see the family coming together to remember his life. The pictures are nice sending prayers your way😊
God doesn't owe anyone an explanation. And who are we to question God as to why?? It was his time, and Brian's journey was to come to God's glorious throne. I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your son. Your faith is strong. Blessings to you and your family. 🙏
What a tremendous video. God bless you
Thank you 😊
Eternal rest grant onto Brian. May the souls of the faithful rest in peace.
So, so sorry for your loss. Have faith in our Savior Jesus Christ 🙏. You will see him again.
Thank you for sharing your videos. God bless all of you 🙏
Love to see you all.
You guys are AMAZING!! Spreading so much love and positivity. Brian was a loving person with a huge heart. I have no doubt that he hears all of your tributes and that he is smiling from above. ♥
Yes, it's a serious tragedy and loss always. As humans we understand love and you will love him always. Thank you all for sharing. ❤
We can celebrate his life also.
He is a physically beautiful boy, and from your family's discussion it sounds like he is beautiful in all aspects 💚💙🩵
May
your son rest in peace, Amen 🙏 ❤
Sorry for your loss!!
Thank you. That was very enlightening and intuitive. I lost my dad 6 years ago, my hero and support system. It has taken me such a long time but I think after 5 years only then could I find a new normal were I don’t cry every day. Your words touched my heart and soul, I feel like my grief is more natural now x
Love your family! Hopefully your messages will help people with their own grief and teach those others how to help.
I’m so sorry. Sending love and yes, grief has no timeline and it’s so personal how much the waves of grief happen. Anniversaries are absolutely difficult and early years are quite distressing. The goal is to keep going and finding ways to give joy to others somehow.
My mom’s sister died from a brain tumor, Glioblastoma. We shared the same birthday. Now my mom is slowly dying from Alzheimer’s and it’s heartbreaking. I love hearing your story about Brian. Grief is overwhelming at times. ❤
Thank you 🙏🏼✝️🙏🏼
Truly wonderful video. Thank you for sharing. It resonated with me. Love you all, God bless.
Thank you for sharing your story. Blessings to your family
You guys are so strong ❤️ I’m really in admiration of your family
I have hugely cut down on how much I drink because of how I acted when intoxicated, now I’ll have one drink or opt for a soft drink, so I hope you know how important your message is 🙏 thank you guys for sharing
Thank you, we appreciate it 💙🩵
This was such a beautiful video to watch, because you are such a close and thoughtful family. So sorry about the loss of your Brian😢. May God bless your family.
Keep the faith family. God bless you.
Thank you for sharing
It’s hard talking about grief many years out and with new people who didn’t know that family member. I hope to talk more about missing loved ones more.
thanks for sharing this🌻🌷🌹🙏
You all inspire me everyday! Thank you for sharing your story and journey.
May God bless this family. This story is so sad. ❤
So sorry for your loss of Brian 😢...I also lost my parents in 2015, my Dad died on May 12 & my Mom died on December 25, plus my brother passed on February 12, 2020. Of course, my cat died October 7, 2021.
You are all so strong !!! I can not even imagine going through such a loss .
Hi. I shared your video with On Patrol: Live, a TV series on REELZ, that features several police departments in the country, including Toledo, OH, because they have shown a lot of drivers under the influence.
My son died in his sleep from a silent heart attack. I feel your pain. 🙏
Thank you for your amazing strength
Thank You!!!!
You're welcome!
Sorry..for your loss🙏😒
I lost my precious niece due to cardiac of arrest at age 49 this was a sudden death and she died in winter 2013. She left behind a husband and a son age 10 and daughter age 8. As the Hoeflinger family is speaking here about their son Brian dying oh boy I feel their emotional states. 😢
Sending ❤️ to you Guys xx
He in heaven with God. We all end up there. You will see him again. AMEN
I'm glad you and your beautiful wife stuck by each other through that difficult time. Losing a child is very difficult, and couples tend to take that anger out on each other. It's sad when that happens because no child wants to see their parents' place blame. Make sure, though, that you two are having a special night during the week at least once a week. I hope they will pass stricter laws on DUIs. Especially if you kill somebody, you go to jail for life because the person made that decision to get in the vehicle while drunk, so they made that decision. I don't drink. It's against my religion.
Thank you for talking about trigeminal neuralgia. I was diagnosed with this condition about 20 years ago. The electric shocking pain on one side of my face improved somewhat with anti-seizure medication. However the condition got progressively worse to where I had micro vascular decompression surgery at Stanford University about 3 yrs ago. Since then I have been symptom free and off anti-seizure medication. I encourage anyone who suffers from this to consult with their doctor regarding surgery
Since I am now a licensed driver, although I am 26, I promise to NOT do what your son did on 2/1/13!
I pray for the Holy Spirit to comfort you all in the loss of your dear son and brother ❤🙌
Warm Greetings from the Netherlands 👋
Could relate to everything you said.Brian s family such loving people and he was such a good person.
Your my resource support system.Grief does not have a timeline.Lost my parents and a sister natural causes.You cant shut them out they live with you every step of the way and a part of you.
Is there a video on how he died
The Dr helps so many so how does it affect him
❤
💙
🙏rip
❤🫶🏻♥️
How did he die? Did his “manner” of death have a significant effect on your family?
He was drinking and on the drive home he hit a tree. 😢
do neurosurgeons really work 70 hours a week?
❤
