my brother on personal statement

is it a good idea to mention my brother on my person statemen as he was part of my motivation and fascination of the subject?
It's not like im going to write a paragraph, only 3 sentences max.
A bit vague. Depends on what the link is with the subject tbh.

e.g. Had a health condition so you researched a subject and intereacted with healthcare professionals dealing with it, yeah.

Hi there,

I think that this is fine, so long as you are very specific with how he has motivated you/ inspired you to pursue the course.

All the best,

It's fine as a starting point, just avoid it being a mini bio of your family and get to the details of your suitability and motivation as quickly as you can.
