I wish you and your family nothing but the best.

Thank you, Andy. I have not yet learned to take any credit for Brayden's survival, or recent developmental accomplishments. Perhaps some day, but for now I believe that all I have done is what any mother should do. I have given my son unconditional love, been there to love away the pain, taught him that "can't" does not exist, and encouraged him to reach for the higher bar in everything he does. I have given this both of my sons this.

Interestingly, Brayden, whom doctors said would not survive, and if he did he would be little more than a vegtable. Now, at the age of 4 3/4 he knows what most other 4 year old's know, and he can count to ten in 4 different languages. No one will ever convince me that he has sub-normal intelligence, or that he is unable to succeed in life.
