'Life isn't promised': Olivia Plath pens emotional tribute to beloved late brother Michah Meggs, 15

MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA: Olivia Plath just posted a painful letter paying her tribute to her late brother Michah Meggs, 15. The 'Welcome to Plathville' star temporarily stopped using her social media accounts after her brother met with a fatal accident. Apparently, a car hit Meggs electric bike on May 4 in Franklin County, Virginia. Plath posted to Instagram on Friday, May 19, while sharing an adorable family picture. “I’ve rewritten this a few times because somehow I have no words, even though inside of me is a vortex of every emotion possible," she wrote in the post.

The 25-year-old continued, “You’ll always be in my heart, Micah Titus. You deserved so much, and I don’t think you knew just how loved you are. I will miss your laugh so much." Plath also opened up about the pain of being unable to meet Michah, “I hadn’t been allowed to see my younger brother Micah for several years, because as an adult I’ve chosen a non-religious different life path than my parents. I can’t stop thinking about all of the memories we never got to make and how I missed out on the last few years of his life."

'Hug your loved ones a little tighter today'

She ended her post by bringing attention to what we have now and appreciating it, she wrote: "Micah was only 15 and died in a tragic accident. Life isn't promised; hug your loved ones a little tighter today." Plath and her family made a sweet gesture by asking people to donate instead of flowers to the Brachial Plexus Foundation since Meggs had Cerebral Palsy from a Brachial Plexus injury during his birth, as reported by People.

'Bringing laughs to those he loved'

Sharing how close she was to her younger sibling, Plath said, "When growing up in a large family, the older kids often become like parents to the younger kids. Micah was my baby; I was 9 when he was born, and I remember that day like yesterday," she explained. "I potty trained him, taught him to read, carried him around on my hip, and then piggyback style.”

In his obituary, Meggs was described as a "skilled outdoorsman" with a passion for hunting, fishing, camping, and trapping. He was also remembered for enjoying time with his siblings and "sharing his understated sense of humor and bringing laughs to those he loved."
