Request and Easter Sunday Update

Mariko would like anyone who has good pictures of Brandon with friends and family to bring them by the hospital so that she can make picture boards for Brandon and his family.

Brandon is still in the same condition as yesterday. Mariko was able to help care for him again, which has helped her understand, a little more, what he has been through and what he will be going through once he is out of the coma.

We appreciate all of the kind comments, words of encouragement, and offers of help. Your love and friendship have made a horrible situation much easier to cope with.

Cheers on this sunny/kind of windy/Easter Sunday,
Miks, Little Guy Logan, and the Rowes

  2. I miss you guys. I'll be at the hospital tomorrow - sans goopy eyes and nose. The kids are making cards for Brandon and they want to see Logan. I love you!!! I'm breaking the exclamation point rule I make my students follow - that's how much I love you!!!

    I'm proud of you, Mariko. You're a source of strength for everyone around you, especially your son.

  11. Mariko,
    Sorry I didn't recognize your number with the good news about the kiss.........I was teasing Autumn saying that it was her and who kissed her. Funny, but GREAT that is was Brandon. Hey, put a link to the article about the accident, we were away and didn't read it or see it. Love you all!
