David Archuleta Expressing Condolence to David Cook
A hard competition does not make insensitive to his ex. main competitor in "American Idol", . Archuleta showed his great sympathy to Cook who lost his elder brother last weekend.

"It really struck me when I heard about the news of Cook's brother," stated Archuleta as quoted in People. "I know they had been struggling with it for a while, so my heart really goes out to them. It's so admirable the way he's handling it though, and it's amazing to see him there as an example for millions of other people who have also been affected the same way he and his family have." He continued, "I'll be keeping him in my thoughts and prayers, and hope the Cook family stays strong."

Cook's brother, Adam, died on Saturday, May 2, at the age of 37 after battling cancer for about 11 years. He announced the news of his brother on the next day, May 3, during the 12th Annual Race for Hope 5K event in Washington, D.C., which gained 97,000 dollars for the charity to fight brain tumors.
