I remember coming over that night and your mom looked at me and said "what the @#*% do we do now" and I said "I don't know"....but I wanted to peek at you and as I watched you sleep, I remember thinking, this will change his life forever, but how? Well Brooke, you just like your Mom have an incredible way of making any situation positive, and look for that one loophole, that one string to grab....and when you close your hand around it your fire and passion ignite and it becomes positive and healing for others. That is the true spirit of a giver...God bless you Brooke
And thank You
Aunt Joni
