Brandon's trip to school with me...

Today in class we were reading the news then came across an accident similar to Christopher Reeve's. We then started a small lesson on human anatomy- specifically the spinal cord and vertebrae. This topic brought up Brandon's big accident in his Z. I took the kids in our class on a walk through Brandon's life. It was great to think about him today. You know what else was great? While looking at pictures of the funeral services, a couple kids commented on how everyone was smiling instead of crying...

I'm deeply greatful for the knowledge and continual warm assurance that Brandon truly is still around and that I will see him again. I'm greatful for the person he was before and after his accident, his charisma, his love and his friendship. Thanks for hanging out in class with us today.

Quoting the very end to one of my most favorite movies, Gladiator...

I will see you again...but not yet...not yet...

I am so proud of you, not only in the way you are such a wonderful son, but obviously a wonderful friend. Brandon was luck to have you in his life.
