MANILA – TV host and DJ Mo Twister and his wife Angelika Schmeing are mourning the loss of his brother-in-law Francis who passed away due to the coronavirus on Tuesday.

“My wife lost her only brother yesterday to the coronavirus. I can’t even begin to put into words how devastated she is. I have never seen her this way. He was 38. I have never seen someone I care about so broken,” Twister said on Instagram.

“I’ve been crying for days, not just for the loss of my brother-in-law, but for the pain it has caused my wife, her mother, and what will come for Francis’ wife and son,” he added.

Twister said it’s unfortunate that because of the current situation, they are not even allowed to grieve properly and to say goodbye.

“His young son is now isolated, he needs to be isolated from others who have been in contact. My mother-in-law is isolated after losing her son. His wife has to be isolated. It’s crazy to even think of that. They can’t be together. It’s unbelievable,” he said.

Twister then went on to describe Francis a “very good man.”

“He did not deserve this. His young son didn’t deserve it. If we were so loved, good people like him shouldn’t be taken this way,” he said.

According to Twister, it pains him to see his wife shattered because Schmeing loved her brother “in a way I hope my kids would love each other.”

At the end of his post, Twister said he wishes he had a degree in infectious diseases because what happened to their family has made him want to stop this virus more than anything.

Meanwhile, Schmeing expressed her grief in her own post saying her brother “deserved a longer life than this. He deserved to have us next to him and this virus didn’t even allow us the dignity of doing that.”

Schmeing’s brother died at the age of 38.
