SURGEY IS DONE, HEALING BEGINS

Brandon's surgery to piece together his shattered pelvis is done after 10.5 hours. Now the healing begins, not only for Brandon but for all of us. One thing I hope everyone has learned, albeit the hard way, is that life is fleeting. We can't waste it holding onto grudges or hating. We have to be willing to say I love you to the people who mean the most to us. This very special young man is going to face a life that is forever changed. Will he ever be the same silly little boy I remember who almost knocked himself out by imitating Jim Carrey and hitting his head on the table. Will he be the same little boy whose favorite line was "All righty then"? How will he be different? His new life will most likely be so different than he imagined.
