David’s Brother has lost his battle
Posted by: Ang | 9 Comments | Categories: Latest News.

The older brother of American Idol champ David Cook has lost his battle with brain cancer, according to the singer’s official website.

Adam Cook, 36, a lawyer, died early Sunday morning after an 11-year struggle with the disease, which had spread to his spine. He leaves behind his wife, Kendra, and their children.

David made the announcement Sunday morning at the 12th Annual Race for Hope 5K run/walk in Washington, D.C. benefiting finding a cure for brain cancer. The “Light On” rocker was the event’s honorary chairman and his team raised more the $97,000 for the cause.

The brothers had one of AI’s most memorable, tear-worthy moments ever, when Adam sat in the audience in April 2008 and watched David perform his rendition of Mariah Carey‘s “Always Be My Baby.”

Residents of their hometown in Terre Haute, Indiana, raised $45,000 so that Adam could be flown in with the proper medical care.

  6. A brother: A brother is sometimes more than just family. He can be a best friend, an idol, an inspiration.
    I am so sorry to hear about your brother. He will always be with you in your heart and mind. God is taking care of him now and he is not far away. He will still be watching over you and going through all of your experiences with you. The only difference is that you can not see him and he is no longer in pain. Cancer is such a terrible disease. No one should have to suffer with it. He is in a better place. We will pray for the both of you. Take care. God bless.
