Lil Brother...




I have a little brother who is the light of my life. He is 18 I am 26. We are 7 years apart in age, but in personality we are the same. I got to spend a little time with him this afternoon after the doctor's appointment I had, and this kid amazed me everyday.




Brandon was worn two months early weighed about 2 pounds, and for the first year of his life he lived in the hospital. We almost lost him many time. From not breathing, turning blue, seizures, and many many stitches...too many to remember, and to count. Now he is taller than I and healthy as a horse..well sorta:)




However, May 18th Brandon will be graduating from high school. This is a milestone I never thought we would have. He will be a freshman at Eastern Illinois University next semester, and he is a volunteer firefighter with the South Wheatland Fire Department. He has a beautiful girlfriend of 3 years, and he makes me laugh every time we are together.




I just wanted to share my little brother with all of you. He is my hero, and I am proud to call him brother but even prouder to call him friend:)
