Brian thinks everyone would be better off without him

I'm looking for a fic where Brian almost dies and thinks everyone would be better off without him. Jack is on the "other side" and shows Brian what everyone's life would be like if he died. Any similar fics are welcome.

ETA additional detail: In the one I'm referring to, he sees Justin in the future and he has a limp from either the prom attack or getting jumped in NYC. He talks to an adult Gus on a video call.

FOUND! Link in comments. It was Vic, not Jack. Seems I was mixing up two stories.

The additional detail makes me think you are talking about galeandrandy's Scrooged (http://archiveofourown.org/works/525088?view_full_work=true). But the angel/guide in that fic is Vic, not Jack.
