		Afflicted by poor health throughout his life, André encouraged his closest followers to accept their suffering rather than to seek healing, since suffering brings one closer to Jesus on the cross.

		Eventually, the brothers began to wrestle — although according to both Aaron Hardin and Michael Graham, the fight was mostly just "goofing around" between the boys, with tickling and laughing.
		After Andre Hardin was taken to the hospital — and after authorities failed to find any signs that a bullet had penetrated the Hardin house — police began to question Aaron's story.
