Update - Friday 8:15pm

When Brandon woke up (but still had the tube in) he motioned for his cell phone. Chrissy gave it to him and he texted her that he wanted to throw up. He is laying sick in the hospital just gets off of all of these sedation and paralytic drugs and yet he is still with it enough to request his phone. This kid is amazing.

Brandon hasn't had anything to eat or drink since last Friday. The first few days he wanted a drink so bad. Now the doctors are asking him to drink and eat little amounts and he says he can't. He just doesn't feel up to it. He still feels nauseous. Hopefully by tomorrow he will at least drink a little.

Hey Brandon,
I just tucked Megyn and Kayla in for the night and they asked me to tell you that they love you very much and hope you get better soon. You are the first thing they talk about in the morning and the last thing they think about before they go to bed. You mean so much to them and so many other people. They said that not to worry that the Easter Bunny will find you at the hospital. Leave it to my kids to worry about the chocolate delivery at a time like this. As soon as you are feeling better, they would love to come and see you. Have a peaceful night.
Love
Aunt Kelly, Megyn & Kayla

Hi Adrianne--It's good to hear that Brandon has made a turn for the better...I hope things continue to improve. I can tell just from reading about him that he is such an amazing, strong boy! (And you are such a loving, thoughtful Aunt!) Happy Easter to all of you!
