Last years' American Idol winner David Cook lost his brother yesterday to a battle with cancer. I believe that he was in his mid thirties and it was made public last year during Idol that he had cancer. I heard last night on our local news that he had lost his battle.
I am sure David is beside himself as I know that he mentioned his brother several times in interviews and stuff. I feel sorry for him and his family is in my prayers.
Can you send your sentiments to David and his family here?

Condolence to David Cook's family. Is he the one that was said the one who was about to join American Idol but David Cook push through? Is he the one crying on the time that David Cook won the idol? . This is sad.

I am not sure. I believe that he did get to come to the final last year and was there when David won.

Thanks for your concern. I heard about it on the news. I figured that it would be all over the internet.

I heard about this on the news last night. Losing someone to cancer is never easy. Especially to someone so young. I lost my dad to liver cancer in 2004. I still miss him each day, but there are so many memories that I would not trade for anything that might not have happened had Dad not known he was dieing.

I am very sorry for David and for his family. It is never easy when people die young, it is very sad and very unfair. I hope I never have to bury any of my children. I would also be devastated to lose my brother or my sister, and he and his brother seemed to be very close. My sympathies to the Cook family.
