Hi Everyone, For those of you in the Vancouver area I would like to extend an invitation to you. This has been a long hard month for all of us and I am coordinating a group to help the Make-A-Wish Foundation promote an event. We all know how much B loved MAW. I thought this would be a perfect opporunity for us to get together and do something positive that would make B smile. If you are available for an hour or two this Sunday Nov 23. We will be asking downtown Portland businesses to put a Make-A-Wish poster in their window or somewhere inside their business. Give me a call or shoot me an email! jkolkmeyer@gmail.com 360-903-9242 Love you all Jess

Well said Tristi! The one time I saw the movie Bucket List was with Brandon as he narrated each scene for us. He thought that movie was one of the "best movies ever". Even though it was late and I kept dozing off he gave me a summary of what I missed at the end, and I could tell how important he felt living out your dreams was. What an inspiration he still continues to be.

Isn't that the truth, Tristi?! Well said. Miss you B. alot.

I finally watched the Bucket List tonight... it made me think of B. I am so proud that he went skydiving (something I don't EVER want to do) since that was one of his dreams. Funny- the movie was inspiring, but not nearly as much as Brandon's passion for whatever he touched. I truly have only seen that fire a few times in my life and count myself so blessed to know and to love such a great man. If we all just had a little bit of his passion, think of the good we could do in this world... Love you B.

For Danielle~ You represent another of the lessons portrayed by this life experience, honey. Your love and constant will is amazing. No wonder the two of you found each other!

I miss you so much babe. Everyone misses you. It gets more and more real everyday that your actually gone. I know you will always be here with me, I just wish sometimes u would actually be HERE. It just doesn’t feel right not having u by my side or not talking to u on the phone every 15 minutes. I look at all of our pictures constantly and remember the amazing times we had and can't help but smile. I know you’re in a better place and I bet it’s amazing up there. Watch over all of us, and help us to live our lives as u did. Help us fight the fight and help us find peace. I love u so much.

In the most undesirable and adverse of times it is often easy to question what exactly the motives of God may be. But then we begin to see the brilliance of this special life, who, through our God, touched countless others. It becomes evident that his purpose is and will forever be extraordinary. His faith and strength, his peace and commitment, and his heart for his Savior; He has had a profound impact on the lives of many, including my own. I did not know Brandon personally, and yet find myself standing in admiration of his journey. His spirit is a true testament of God's love and I believe that those who valued him in this life, and those who now enjoy him in heaven, will forever be blessed. My heart, thoughts and prayers are extended to his family, friends and girlfriend. I pray for God to cover you with his peace and presence Always.

Hey Brandon its Marcus Gabe Rodriguez lil' brother. I know I didn't get to know you all that well but i do remember every time i saw you you were in the greatest mood and had everyone else laughing putting smiles on their faces. My mother and Gabe told me a lot of great things about you and I wish I could have gotten to know you better. I know you have changed the lives of many many people and I wish I could have been one of them. I'm sorry i couldn't attend your funeral. I really really wanted to. I'll remember you for ever and all the amazing things I've heard about you. I look forward to seeing you in heaven someday. Rest in Peace Brandon

I am sorry for the loss of Brandon. I know that he is in a much better place and God is enjoying his company now. My heart goes out to his loved ones, Praise God for memories. I always called Brandon, George Hamilton. He always had that wonderful smile and tan. It was nice watching him grow from a boy into a man. I am blessed to have known him. May all of our faith and love be as strong as Brandon's was.

I've known Brandon and his family since before 1st grade. He was always a really happy guy who loved sports and loved to make people laugh. I remember him being Ezekiel in our 3rd grade play belting out his solo's. I haven't had the privilege of seeing him lately, but he was always in my prayers. I'm glad that I have the memories I do of him, and I look forward to seeing him again when Jesus comes to take us all home. My heart goes out to his family and all of his friends and I'm praying for you all. I miss him, but I'm glad that he is finally pain free and sleeping peacefully waiting for Jesus.

Very early one morning, our daughter Shannon who attends ASU called us in Minnesota crying, and told us about Brandon's death. We have been reading the updates and the message board and feel privileged to learn about Brandon. Our hearts go out to his family and friends. Shannon shared with us what an extraordinary young man Brandon was, and his incredible faith. Blessings to all are touched by Brandon. What a special person.

I was Brandon's Sigma Chi pledge educator. I still remember the first time I met him.. It was during rush at the fraternity house and he was bouncing around in a sleeveless t-shirt laughing and smiling like I would see him do a hundred times after that day.. I didn't know exactly what it was, but I remember thinking there was a little something special about this kid.. Now, that seems like the understatement of the century. I've never met someone so strong and so tender, who reinforced my faith in people while reinforcing my faith in God. I thank God, the Hendrick family, his friends, and anyone who shaped him into who he was because he has impacted so many in such a HUGE way. I love you B.. I pray that I can live as you lived, love as you loved, and provide a fraction of the hope and inspiration that you have and will continue to offer.. GC

I never really knew Brandon but I do know many of his friends. Brandon's impact on the lives of others is so apparent, he is loved beyond all measure and I consider myself lucky to call myself a friend to the people that love him. May you Rest In Peace Brandon, and I hope to see you in the light one day. I was listening to this song the other day and even though the lives of Brandon and I never crossed paths, he was on my mind. "See You In The Light"- Michael Franti & Spearhead

I had a couple of classes with Brandon at ASU, one of which we sat right next to each other and were partners. It was honestly one of the most boring classes ever, but Brandon always managed to brighten it up. Everyday he would walk in at the crack of dawn, laughing, with a big smile on his face. It was truly contagious. We would talk sports, girls, life, you name it. His outlook was always that the glass was half-full, something I haven't forgotten. His positive attitude, strong will and hilarious nature have made a lasting impression on me. Rest in peace Brandon, you will live on with those you touched.

My heart and prayers go out to all of Brandons friends and family. I worked with Brandon for a short period of time, and it was truly an honor to have met him. His amazing personality made us all better people, and his faith in Christ and his courage shown during his battle was a true reflection of a godly man. You will be missed by so many B. Rest in peace baby boy, your in Jesus arms now.

I didn't know Brandon personally. But I just want his family and friends to know that I ache for you all because Brandon will be missed. But we can rejoice because to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord!!! :) Now Brandon is hand in hand with the Savior. I am sure there is no place he would rather be. Take care~ grace/peace Miki Montes

I've known Brandon since he was a little guy, but haven't seen him more then maybe once in the last couple years. Since hearing a couple weeks ago that he had gotten bad again, I have kept thinking about him and praying for him as much as I can. Upon hearing that he had finally gone to sleep in Jesus, my heart aches for the loss of him. But I know that some day I will see him again. Love you Brandon! Miss you lots already.

Ferguson Family
Dear Hendrick Family, Yesterday we received a very sad phone call from our son, Conner. He shared that he had lost a fellow Sigma Chi brother, Brandon, to cancer. Though Brandon was older, there is a special "brotherly bond" amongst the Sigs. Reading Brandon's journal we felt compelled to write a few thoughts. We first must send our deepest sympathy to your family. Brandon's strength was amazing as he battled this terrible disease. We are in awe of his faith that God would keep him safe. Brandon was incrediable...his courage to face an incurable disease but not lose faith that God has a plan and to accept that plan... You should be so proud!! Please know that Brandon's journal touched our hearts. Thank you for sharing. Give yourself time to heal and know that we will keep you in our prayers. The Ferguson Family Jim, Susan, Parker, Conner and Mackenna

I am blown away by all the people you have brought together. I can just see you up there, looking down at us, with that smile of yours, watching us come together. Your love is so contagious, it will live on, through each and everyone of us. You are in heaven now, probably having the best time trying to convince God, you can help run the place. Haha. (Ed Little said that and I couldn't stop laughing.) You are complete and healed now. Humbled am I, to have known you here on earth. You are missed until, we get to meet again.

freshman year- biggest flirt sophomore year- biggest flirt junior year- most charming senior year- best dressed from your charm, looks, athletic ability, talent, humor...its obvious you were the best at everything on the outside. but whats even more important- you had the best heart on the inside. you never left a room without making someone smile. you have left your mark on all those who knew you and loved you. my favorite memory of you was every morning in wargos class senior year, walkin in first thing and hearin 'hey lawrence' you were the only one i allowed to call me that haha. goofin around, writing notes, making jokes, trading back massages...you made that class one of my favorites. your legacy will live on forever. God gave us a gift when he gave us you...and when he decided to take you away from us, it was only to draw us closer to him..which will someday, lead us back to you in heaven. i love you brandon, your smile will forever remain impressioned on my heart. ~your lawrence

Your positive outlook and your determination to spread your passion for life made you one of the most beautiful people anyone could have had the privilege to know. You were and will always be loved by so many people whose lives you have touched. I consider myself a better person for having known you. Thank you for being you.

You came into my life as competition, with a sick pair of Jordans and a wicked jump shot; a talented ladies man. It didn’t take long for my envy to turn to love. The time we spent together I will always treasure: Alki hoops, Skyview hoops, road trips and sleepovers. I will miss you my friend. Your spirit has survived by the people you have inspired and encouraged throughout your journey on earth. Thanks for the memories and the laughs B! See you up there, watch over us until then.

Hey Brandon, I justed wanted to say how much you have helped me through my life. I can remember how much you always told me to keep my head up. You made me smile when it felt like I had nothing to smile about. I remember my senior year when you traveled with us for each game, coaching us and giving us support. I remember our season ending and you being there to give us strength. I wish I could return the favor. I feel so blessed to be your friend. That will never change B.

rachel harrington
I know we didn't know each other well, but you still managed to change my life in a big way. You somehow made Hattan's stats class enjoyable and I'll always remember watching the UNC game in Cabo. When I heard the news this morning, life seemed a lot different... a lot more mysterious, a lot more meaningful. Your courage to fight and strength to let go have inspired me. I believe that only those who have not lived truly fear death, and you, Brandon, lived an incredible, full, wonderful life. Yours was a life after which I want to fashion my own. Sometimes things don't make sense, sometimes we wish for a perfect ending. But I guess some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next. Heaven got one heck of an angel today. You'll forever be missed. "May the road rise up to meet you, may the wind be ever at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face and the rain fall softly on your fields. And until we meet again, may God hold you in the hollow of his hand."

I remember sitting with Brandon in Pastor Chad's bible study on Wednesday's...what a sweet, sweet presence that followed him. We would sit there and slap each other's legs throughout the service, excited over the Word we were being fed. What sticks out in my mind is Brandon's hunger for God and his amazing smile. My condolences go out to the entire family...I pray God's comfort over you during this time. Brandon, we will see you again one day! Your life has touched so many.

B - We weren't best friends, but you were a great friend none the less. You were always a positive influence and a great person to be around. I'll always remember how much fun we had in Cabo with D'Ho, Kailie and Nikki. It's amazing to me, the determination you so consistently showed. I am a better person for having known you. God bless and God speed.

You are healed, and your too brief life reminds us that this is only the bus stop . . . the great adventure is on the other side, and in that glorious place we can almost see you as you are today - whole, healthy, vibrantly alive. As C.S. Lewis once said, all of life on this side is only the title and cover page, the great story that has no end, whose chapters become more amazing with every turn of the page - is yet to be written. You are writing that story now, Brandon . . . we thank God for your life, your laughter, your legacy . . . and we pray that all who knew you on this side will follow your brave footsteps, seeking God until our very last breath. We will miss you . . . for now.

Brandon, I know we never really knew each other, but you were and still are an inspiring man who has touched thousands and thousands of people with your story, your spirit, your faith, and your smile. Your tenacity is truly amazing, and I admire you so much for what you've accomplished in your life. You will be missed so much by us all down here, but I'm so glad that you're in heaven. My prayers have always been with you every day, and they won't stop now. We love you

Thank you Lord for blessing the world with Brandon even for these short years. Thank you that his body and mind no longer need to fight earthly battles. He's no longer bound by physical limitations. He's completely in Your care.
To Brandon's family, I often feel you are my own even though I don't get to spend much time with you anymore. You are part of my spiritual family and so many of my childhood memories. I'm praying for you as you adjust to life here on earth without Brandon. And I'm praying that it wont be long until we're all reunited with him. You're in my thoughts and prayers.

There are not too many people that make an impact on ones life that you can remember the first day that you met them. You are one of those people. Even though you were fighting your own battles you reached out to me and gave me the strength to fight for my mother with few but strong words. You are truly and inspiration! I know you are looking down on the ones you love. My thoughts and prayers go out to your family. In Hoc

What a joy and a pleasure to have known you for years. To watch your gorgeous smile and wonderful eyes. You made me smile in the hospital when Matt and I needed you most. I hope you are in heaven playing a great game of basketball. What a super man with a generous heart. You will be missed. Our thoughts are with your family.

Hey Brandon, Well God has taken another angel to heaven and I am so proud that you were a part of my girls lives, I know they are richer for having the pleasure of having a brother like you. I know that when you left this world this morning your sister Jamie was right there to greet you and welcome you to the other side. I would never wish for you to leave us here on earth, but since that was not our decision to make I want you to know that you being there with my baby girl brings me much peace. Until we earn our wings and join you and Jamie, Please never forget how much you guys were loved and will be missed. Jamies mom Donna

It's unbelievable the amount of lives you have touched with your faith, courage and strength through this battle. You never gave up and that is something to admire. You definitely are my hero and have instilled a faith in me that I cannot thank you enough for. I will always remember the good times that we were able to share in Hawaii and when you were my basketball coach at Skyview. Rest In Peace B. You and your family will be in my prayers now and forever. Love you man.

B, you have always been my gurdian angel, and one of my best friends. I will never forget the power of faith that you had in anything and everything you did. God's plan for you was an amazing one, and you fulfilled all of his expectations. You will always have a piece of my heart.I can still replay every memory that we had together, and the first time that we had ever spoke, it was like yesterday. I love you B, always have. Watch over me from heaven, and help to guide me in the right path to seeing you again someday. I miss you so much! Love, Whitney

Brandon, even though we never really got to know each other, it is obvious that you touched the hearts of everyone you met - including me. I wish we had spent more time together at Skyview since you were the only one that would probably understand my obsession with UNC. You're in the arms of angels now and at least you'll have the best view when UNC wins it all this year. God bless. Your family and friends are in my prayers.

B! You are one of the most amazing people I have ever met. I will never forget the times we spent the summer before I became a high schooler and the nights you beat me in basketball! Let alone randomly talking to you and finding out we were both at ASU! I love you and I will miss you with all my heart.

Missing you with all my heart, sweet boy. Please watch over us. You have been more amazing than you will ever know and I value every time we spent together. I won't be able to watch another Adam Sandler movie without thinking of you. You will be in my heart forever. I love you to the moon and back.

Adam Duda
Brandon, your courage and strength are inspiring and unimaginable. To face adversity with such a positive spirit not only shows your true character, but reflects and inspires hundreds if not thousands of others. I only wish I could have gotten to know you better, to have shared a few laughs with you, and to have reached out to you in such a difficult time. So often we think our lives are tough, yet we fail to realize the things that truly matter. You've made me more appreciative of the things I do have in my life; my family, my health, and most importantly our brothers. I couldn't imagine the struggle you've been through, as you fought harder than anyone would have. I feel selfish for not taking more time out of my life to go out of my way and improve yours. I'm glad you're no longer feeling any pain and resting peacefully among us. Your life has taught me to live mine without looking back and made me realize that those things we cherish most can be taken away in the blink of an eye. Brandon, forget not that there are strong arms around you. I look forward to the day we finally get to meet. In Hoc

You have forever touched our hearts. Your strength is imbedded into all of us. Infectious your love is, and heart warming the thought will be, knowing you will side by side with the Big Man, keeping an eye on all of us. You've moved mountains and so much more. I love you Brandon.

David Cathcart
Hey Brandon, its been a while since we've spoken... I feel bad about not reaching out to you more often, but I was scared. I remember freshman year @ Skyview when you told the team about your cancer, I was in shock. I couldn't believe that someone like you could EVER be placed in a situation like that. You're a shining beacon in this world of courage, tenacity and hope. Your fearlessness in the face of adversity was humbling and inspiring. How you managed to maintain normalcy during such turbulent times is miraculous and I can only humbly commend you for it. I only wish that I could have an ounce of the courage you displayed and that we had more time to develop a stronger friendship... I am forever in your debt for teaching me the most valuable lesson about life: I will always cherish every moment and every relationship, as you have done. You may not realize it, but as every one has already posted here, you have touched my life more than you can ever know. . . This board itself speaks volumes to the inspiration you have sparked. I thank you for that. I pray you find Peace

I know I already wrote today, but I wanted to just explain how amazing it was to see you today. So many thoughts were running through my head as I sat next to you in your Phoenix Suns gear! Just remembering old times, and talking with everyone really helped, talking about what a wonderful person you are! You have left lasting impressions on more people than you know! And your room is decked out pretty cool with all that sports stuff and autographs, which makes you cool! :) I am a big fan, and a big fan of you too. Stay strong!

it was so great seeing you tonight Brandon! Leave it to you to be rockin the phx suns gear! Your room looks great with all those authographs too! That's awesome B! Stay strong! You know I'm here for you!May God watch over you and keep you without pain. You truly are an angel and one of a kind! I'm a better person for knowing you! You've taught me how to be a fighter and how to be strong. You've showed me the value of true frienship and what it means to love a friend.
2008-10-14 01:19:54
Whitney Wilson
I will never forget dreading my first day back to school after finding out I had cancer and having you pull me aside to let me know if I ever needed anything you were there. That was more comforting than anything that day and I hope you know during some of my hardest times that year you were nothing but an inspiration and a great role model to me. You have touched my life more than you know and I thank you for that. Love you Brandon and I am praying for you and your loved ones.
2008-10-14 01:03:56
Jake Tschirgi
B, You've inspired me to be a better person more than anyone ever has. The definition of a hero is a man of distinguished courage or ability, admired for his brave deeds and noble qualities. I can't say I've met anyone who is more of a Hero than you. You're certainly mine. Love you B.

Brandon: I worked with your mom and we became friends. She's a special lady and it is no surprise to me that she has a very special son. I have read your message board regularly and am in awe of your faith and grace in the face of this challenge. I have shown your web site to so many people and want you to know that your light shines brightly and has had a tremendous impact on many people you have never met. Know that you have encouraged many to seek the God you serve so faithfully. You're an awesome weapon for the kingdom of God and I pray his will is to heal you completely. You have fought the good fight and when you do meet the Lord he will surely say to you the words we all long to hear "Well done my good and faithful servant". I continue to lift you and your family in prayer and hope to have the privilege of meeting you some day.

Brandon, Your strength is an inspiration to all of us. You and Danielle have shown courage I can't even fatham. You have been such an incredible friend, boyfriend and confidant to many of my sisters and for that I am grateful. I still remember formal sophmore year and it amazes me to think that was the beginning of you and Danielle. The two of you have truly shown us all what faith and hope and love really are and that together, all three are what make the difference. I admire you both and continue to think of you often. With love.

Brandon, I didn't get the chance to get to know you as well as i wish i had, but i do know that when i asked you for advice one time, you did everything you could to help me. I only wish i could have gotten to know you better, because I can just imagine how blessed you made your friends and family feel to have you in their lives. My prayers will be with you always and I wish your family the absolute best. You will always be an inspiration to me and so many more people.

Brandon, it looks like some people might like you a little. :) You have always been such an amazing friend to my brother and having you around the house was so much fun! My dad was just saying one of the times he has laughed the hardest was when you guys were watching Bruce Almighty together, I'm not sure why though that movie isn't really that funny and you know my mom always loved her nickname, she has always said only you can call her that though (I won't write it her for fear that someone else might call her it). Always praying for you!

Oh Brandon, you have inspired me so much throughout my time knowing you. You are such a true individual and you are just an absolute blessing. I am so glad that I have gotten the chance to be around you from when we were in middle school, to high school, and even in college. I never got a chance to tell you this before, but I keep your senior picture in my car, that way I can look at your face everyday and pray for you and your family. I am really hoping for the best for you, and may you be relieved of your pain. You have really impacted my life in a positive way and made me turn towards God moreso than I have in the past. Love u B... stay strong buddy. You are always in my heart. xo

Brandon- It was a blessing to see you today and get to talk with you. I know you can hear me and know the strength and direction you've given to my life.

The world has been left a better place by your time on it. I love you. BC

Hopefully he was able to brighten your weekend also. I have sent a picture from our cabo trip, it was so much fun to be there with you, Dustin and Captin Mo. Strange how Mo eluded my camera, LOL!

From your freestyling, basketball, eating competitions, love, courage, and spirit you are an awesome friend. There are too many memories to even write. You've affected more people than you could ever imagine!! Love ya, Mike Teezy

I write to Brandon and his huge community of family and friends. The staff here at Skyview has been reading the blog and receiving updates from Bob Benson and Kasey Powers. Even my freshmen who never knew him are sadly approaching me, telling me they were involved in the Alki fundraiser and had heard the present news and feel so badly. We are all quiet, standing in a spiritual vigilance with Brandon and those who surround him. I couldn't help but weep at Danielle's tender message and I can't help but agree with Mrs. LeFebvre about life's plans. I'm reflecting on what I gained from knowing Brandon since he took my Freshman English Class. It's his inspiration of Spirit, positivity, friendliness, physical drive and determination and his all-encompassing joie de vivre. Much love to him.

So often in life we pray and the outcome is not what we want. It is sometimes hard to see God's plan, when what we want is different. This is one of those times. Brandon, your smile and infectious personality will be missed, but we will carry them in our memories. I am so proud to have known you, you enriched my life. My heart is heavy. Vaya con Dios.

Always in my prayers B. I love you broski and foerever I will live the love and faith that I have learned from, and been inspired by thru you. The courage and strength that you have beamed with all your life is one of the many things that I wold hold in my heart and always have from you. I remember being there at Great Escape in our cabin and as you were baptised in Lake Billy Chinook to accept Christ into your life and your heart. It has been a blessing to call you my friend and my brother. "For everyone who has been born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith." —1 John 5:4

Hey Brandon, its been a while, but I was just thinking about our good times with "smelly Kelly" and good old Mr. B! I hope you haven't lost that amazing sense of sarcasm that you carry around with you. Although, I'm sure you haven't. Just thinking about everything you've gone through makes me sick. Yet, you are such a fighter, truly the strongest person I've ever encountered. I'm so glad I got to see you last fall. You, your family, and friends are in my thoughts and prayers. Stay strong.

Brother B, I also would love to tell you how much you've grown on everyone you've met. Only certain people have the capabilities of teaching people life lessons, and definately fit that category. Today Brad and I ran the marathon I was telling you about in Long Beach, and we kept you in our thoughts through out the race, especially when we struggled the most. Continue to shine, because the impact you've made is absolutely amazing. I keep you in my prayers brother, we all love you, never stop smiling.

Brandon, Man, all I can think of his much you touched me in the past four years getting to know you. You're a fighter and someone I'll respect and always remember. The kind of person that makes you want to be a better person. You do it in a way that leads people without pushing them. I hope you know how much that I'll always love you and I'll never forget the lessons you taught me. Love you brother! BC

Hi Brandon, I remember the first time We saw you, which was on the basketball court at Alki, I said to Ron who is the curly haired kid? that was ripping up and down the court making all the baskets, Oh thats Brandon, Landon better look out!!!he is good!! Brandon it was so fun watching you, you can always spot a great ball player. Remember when we went to Landons ball game I think it was George Fox, with Bense. You and I got to visting about the girl you had met, Danielle, and how special she was to your heart, and she was the girl for you , I was not surprised you met an amazing girl, anyway we had alot to smile about! Some people never find love in a life time. Like Danielle said God has a plan for our life, what a special girl. Brandon I want you to know how much you have taught me, someone twice your age plus some!!! Like your Faith, thru all your suffering, if you had a book out I would read it!! You could write one on Courage, knocking one thing out of the way to do another!! Unbelievable you are, all you have been thru, and still have the zest of Life, to go and do the things you want, and to be with the people you want to be with, you are amazing, jumping out of a plane, going Bear hunting?? Who does all these crazy and fun things,? speaking for kids and giving hope and love to everyone you know, You really are a wild child of God , the word adventure is much to mild for you. , and one more thing, you know that smile of yours?? Its the best. !!!!! I love You Brando, Sheri

Halo to the little one of great stature! Brandon, always remember you are a child of God, and you are not alone in this journey, but in good company. I know you have stirred awe in oh! so many, and please know this is part of your mission He has given. You have taught so many the REAL art of love, constant patience and belief before and after your challenges, and these are only tasks one of God's warriors could do. I love you, kiddo

Hey B- I know you are busy and it's tough to talk, but getting to talk to you has been great. Sorry for leaving you a voice mail, I know you get plenty but I think about you everyday. You are the strongest person I have ever met and I look up to you a lot. Your faith is amazing and to hear your confidence in Gods plan is inspiring. I can't always get out the things I want to say when we talk on the phone because I'm not as strong as you, but know that I love you and I'm always praying for you.

Hey Brandon! I am just saying my prayers before I go to sleep, and I wanted you to know you are in about 99% of them, the other 1% is for the Cougs... Something tells me they could use a little boost! Maybe, your strength can be as contagious for them, as it is for all the people that surround you? What? Not a chance? Thought I'd try...Love ya! Go Cougs!

Brandon---------I see these great pictures of you on here and can't help but think "If you were any more handosme, you could be me." Save, of course, the ear rings. Thanks for being such a great friend, especially to Doug. I admire Doug's faith, strength and loyalty, and I know much of that comes from the friendship you two have. You have taught us all how to be strong with an unyielding faith. Keep smiling.

Hey Brandon, I'm sure you don't remember me but I met you a few times at DZ events (I'm one of Danielles sisters). I wanted to just stop by tonight and let you know that you are in my thoughts and prayers every night. Your will to live and faith in God is inspiring and it continues to fuel my determination and passion to fight my own obstacles and challenges in life and make a difference in this world. I wanted to let you know that I truly believe there is a reason we meet 1000's of people in life and every single one of them is meant to teach us something in life--as big or small as it may be. You continue to "teach me" and show me what it means to live a life with no regrets. God Bless and never stop smiling. It brightens up the room each and every time. -Angelica-

Cecelia Twing
Hi Brandon and family What a journey! What a ride! Thanks for giving such a testimony in living your life. Know that we love you and have you all in our prayers. Our sermon today was on fear - and how in God we have nothing to fear. God's eternal plan is so much brighter and beautiful. This text stood out for me and I am sharing it with you. Isaiah 41:10 "Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will STRENGTHEN you. Yes, I will HELP you. I will UPHOLD YOU with my righteous right hand." Regardless of what happens to any of us - we are in His hands. I know you have that peace.

Mark Santschi
Brandon - To echo Scott’s note, you are an inspiration even to those of us who don’t know you too well. We may have only shared a few Christmas Eves together, but you are never far from my mind. I just wanted to thank you for being such a wonderful friend to my brothers and for the invaluable life lessons in courage and character you have imparted to them, and to everyone whose life you’ve touched. You and your family are in my prayers. ... "I know God will not give me anything I can't handle. I just wish that He didn't trust me so much." - Mother Teresa
2008-10-04 02:18:49
Tara Ofisa
Brandon, I haven't been on here in awhile so I'm just learning what's going on with you. If you were anyone but who you are...I'd be worried for you. But there is something about the spirit of a man who's looked eternity in the eye and fought with the determination you have that just doesn't leave me with room for doubt or fear for you. You have made your life a testimony and God has used your willingness. When you've accomplished all that God has purposed you for there's nothing left to be considered a loss - there's really no age requirement for living a "complete" life in Christ. So don't let this world tell you what life should hold for you or what it should look like. Only God can reveal that to you...and I believe He is revealing that to you. My prayers are with you that you are experiencing true joy and peace in knowing you're an instrument for God's glory. There is no greater attainment on earth and your reward is beyond our greatest imaginings! "Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." 2 Corinthians 4:16-18

Hey Brandon, I wanted to let you know that I think about you a lot. I am going to school and playing soccer in chicago right now. I have my soccer team, friends and professors at school praying for you. I tell them about your strength, perservearence and faith for God, and they are all extremely inspired and touched by you. Just wanted to let you know that you have many prayers and thoughts. Anything can be accomplished with the strength of the Lord. Stay strong, Brandon.

Hey B- Made it home safely and already miss not being down there with you. Words cannot describe how proud I am of you and all that you have taught the world about being a man of God. Thanks for our talks this week. You continue to help me know God has the PLAN. I loved meeting all your wonderful extended family in Arizona, even though Ed Olsen is a Sun Devil, I still thought he was pretty cool. I am trying to book another flight to come down next week-end so hang tough until I get down there again and as ALWAYS Go Cougs!!! (Thought that you might like a laugh or two). My thoughts and prayers are with you every minute of every day. Love ya B, (Boss Man) Ed Little

B- I was thinkin about you today along with every other day, but today especially I was just looking at the impact you have made on me and so many others. You faith and trust in God is an inspirtation to everyone that looks at you. You keep us strong and lead a good example of how to overcome the struggles we face. I was thinkin about something you said, how life isnt about us, were here to serve others, "Heres a simple rule-of-thumb guide for behavior: Ask yourself what you want people to do for you, then grab the initiative and do it for them." Mahthew 7.12. This is really something I'm trying to work on in my life cause its not about me. Thank you so much for everything you have done. Im praying for you. "First things first. Your business is life, not death. Follow me. Pursue Life." You are pursing life to the fullest. God proud of you. Love you, Nik

We haven't met you Brandon but your father attends our church and I've spoken with him about you and assured him we would be thinking and praying for you. You have been remembered in prayer in our Sabbath School class as well. We've read all the emails you send and the ones others have written for you and sort of feel like we know you too. You have been so brave thru all this illness and we'll continue to pray that God will keep your pain under control and if it were even possible, that a miracle could be performed for you. Your faith and trust in God has been evident all along, He'll continue to be with you because He cares for you and loves you a lot. We love to look at your smiling face on your web page and can only imagine what a joy you have been to all who know you. Love & prayers, Jerry & Darlene

Hey B! today when I went to the hospital I was really scared and I've always been a baby when it comes to that stuff. When they were giving me the IV I was nervous but I was trying to think of you and how brave you are! I told you that you inspire me to be stronger!!

Scott Santschi
B - I think about you everyday...It's hard to describe the inspiration I get from you and the incredible way you handle your battles. I thank God for the opportunity to be your friend and grow in my own Faith with you. All the jokes and verbal abuse we throw at each other about the Beavs and Sun Devils; the Broski's from Great Escape in '02; making fun of Doug for being so huge and always denying he's been hitting the juice :); hanging out at Guymons and eating way too much holiday food on Christmas Eve and me beating you in a game of pool probably; or the ever classic time of hanging out the Hillers poking fun at J&K Hillsk, listening to a new Terrance story, all while eating Mo's cookies and puppy chow (I think thats what its called). B, you will always be in my prayers and I just want you to know that I trust in God's plan for all of us - no matter how much we don't understand it. I have commanded you, be strong and courageous! Don't tremble or be terrified because the Lord your God is with you wherever you go. Joshua 1:9
2008-10-02 09:18:59
Emily Rolfs
B- So many words come to mind when I think of you and everything you have been through. You are so strong and such a wonderful person. Keep God close because He has an amazing plan for you. Isaiah 41:10 'So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.' You are in my prayers everyday.

I am glad to hear that you are using the words "not giving up" just changing your focus and living every day to its fullest. Danielle said it all very beautifully in her update for you. Again it is very comforting to know that you have such wonderful support during a very difficult time. We are here for you should there be anything at all that we can do. You really are an inspiration and I feel very blessed to know you, you have changed me and helped me to grow as a nurse. Enjoy the sun your family and friends and continue to live each day with that love and compassion. Rae

Ed 'n Denver
Brandon, Just had a chance to talk with your Uncle Gale and get an update on you. You are in our prayers here in Denver. Also because you had mentioned that you were looking into some alternative modalities and that is usually also my approach, I wanted to share with you some information I just found this morning. It is on a website ( www.fourwinds10.com)that is not particularly about health issues but is interesting in itself. When you get in on the website if you follow down on the left-hand side of the page you will find a header that says "Most E-Mailed" and under that you will find a couple articles that address a couple therapies that are specific for cancers. Keep up your courage, Ed

Brandon, So...it's about 2 in the morning. Just was checking out this amazing website your friends set up for you. Read the updates from the beginning.I can't believe all the tough times you have had. I just want you to know that I feel so blessed and honored to have met you. I knew immediately, from all your non-stop visitors coming by to see you, that you obviously are a very, very special and VERY loved man. I know you hear this all the time, but I, as well as so many others, admire and respect you so much. You have taught me a lot in the brief time I got to know you. Whatever your decisions may be, please be assured that I will be thinking of and praying for you. I am so glad you have such an incredible support system, and so many people surrounding you with love and prayers. Your family and friends are incredible!!! Just like YOU! Ok my dear, I have had to correct a million typos on this message, so I think that's my cue to go to bed. Your mom has my e-mail. Please please please keep in touch. Always in my prayers!!

You don't know how much I'm looking forward to just sitting next to you and attempting to make you smile :) You are such an inspiration to me every day because of your passion for life and your determination to beat this horrible thing. Not a second goes by throughout the day that I don’t think about you, I want you to know that. Whether it’s singing (loudly in your case ha)in the car to a song that reminds me of you or watching a TV show that we've watched before, you’re always on my mind. You have always been that constant positive someone in my life that can remind me of how precious life is and keep me optimistic through anything that happens. I am so proud of you for continuing to be strong given everything you’ve had to go through. You are truly amazing in every way so never stop fighting. You have so much support behind you as anyone can tell by looking at this site; it just shows what an impact you've made on so many people's lives. I love you very much and I want you to know that I don’t respect any one more than I do you. I’ll see you soon! Can't wait! :)

Hey man, My name is Todd Acosta. I am one of the sons of Rae Acosta. My Mom has told me all about you, and how much you have gone through! When I look and hear about you its just so inspiring! Yo have gone through so much, yet your faith for the lord has grown even stronger! So many people would have given up, or started to doubt the lord, but you, even though this is the third time you have fought, you stand strong in the lord. I just pray for you that you keep on standing strong in the lord, and that your fait in him doesnt deminish, no matter what happens! Your faith alone in the lord is enough too overcome what you have overcome already time and time again! With the lord by yourside you will get though this! You will be in my prayers, hopefully we will meet someday! God bless Brandon! May you be blessed, and may the hope love and life of god resonate within your heart!

Brandon You are amazing, your strength, your faith and your trust, in my 15 years in oncology I have never seen such strength and will power to live and to be so gracious for life. I do believe in miracles and I have seen them. I have so much respect for your love of life and your love in God. I know that this is not a journey you would ever want to repeat nor is it a journey that you would wish on any one else but you have gone on this journey with more grace than any one I have ever known. In the worst of times you have not given up. I am so incredibly happy for you and I look forward to the day that i hear of your college graduation. I know how important it is for you to return to ASU and believe it or not it is only a short couple months away. My thoughts and prayers are with you always and I am so happy that you are done.....

Brandon, You are on my heart and mind today. Your name is on my lips on prayer. I pray for the Holy Spirit to fill you today. For a hedge of protection around your heart and mind today that the enemy cannot even approach, much less cross. May you feel the hand of God touch you with healing and peace. I praise Him even now for the good works He is doing in your life. He is good and He is victorious in everything He does. Because you are His child you inherit that victory. There is nothing you need to do, nothing you need to feel, no requirements you must fulfill to recieve it. No matter what your human senses try to tell you...this battle is already won. May you find rest in your spirit today.

Hey Brandon! We totally miss you at Champions, no one else is Reggie Bush-esque and I miss our sarcastic banter during our oh-so-short "rests"! Reading your updates amazes me- you are so strong and God is oozing through you and your words. I have no doubt God is rewriting Hebrews 11 right now so he can add your name to his list of those who have been faithful. Sending lots of prayers...

Hey Brandon! It was good to see your dad last weekend and he told me about this website. What an amazing few months you have had. I want you to know that I meet with a ladies prayer group on Wednesday nites - you have been on the top our list since September! What incredible spirit you have and I pray that God will continue to hold you and give you the strength and courage you need for each day. I'll never forget watching you as a small boy get up in front of church and sing "Father God" - how appropriate for your amazing life. We love you and are in your cheering section!

Hey Brandon! I haven't seen you in quite a while, but I heard about your recent struggles and I just want to tell you that you are in my prayers. :) You were the first person I really talked to when I transfered to ASU and everything that came out of your mouth was inspirational. You were so positive and faithful despite everything, and you made an impact on my life. I hope you know that, and hang in there! God Bless you. Sarah Grainger :)

Aunt Beth
Hi Brandon, Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers! We hear so many good things about you and I love to read your comments! I am so sorry you have to go through this and I can tell you are one tough guy! From my small exposure to cancer and chemo, I have had a taste of what you are up against...and there is no way I would ever say that this is easy. It is hard to keep your focus at times...that is okay, God understands, He loves you more than you can possibly imagine (and you do imagine His love very well!)! Just remember, there is nothing you can do to make Him love you more and there is nothing you can do to make Him love you less!! He is love! We love you Brandon, Uncle Gale and Aunt Beth

Hey B, I wish I had known about this site earlier! You're a champ and always have been so it's nice not having to worry about you. I remember one night that Mike T and I showed up at your house, and you led us through the most hilarious and, umm, uplifting description of your life at ASU. Hurry up and get well, son, because it is obvious that school needs you! I'll keep paying attention to this website and I hope to see you sometime. Love you B Money. Rob

Josh Tschirgi
Hey Brandon, This is my first visit to your website. It's breath taking to scroll down through these comments and look at the number of people you've touched with your courage. I see that my brother made mention of the UO vs. ASU game, so I'll cut you some slack by not going there! Stay strong buddy.
2008-02-15 21:57:42
Rae Acosta
Brandon you never cease to amaze me. It looks as though you did what you set out to do and I know that was not easy..... You are an inspiration and I often talk of you and where you were when you were first diagnosed to where you are today. Jen and I were talking yesterday and lovingly laughing about how honery you were because you did not want to be here and you were never coming back. Next thing I know you are talking with other teens about there diagnosis and encouraging them and being there for them. None of this is easy and I am glad that you have such a strong faith and so many friends and family there for you. Know that we at Doernbecher are thinking of you and praying for you. Stay strong the road ahead is a long one still.

I am so glad that you were able to go home earlier than hoped for. I loved spending time with you each day and seeing you improve, but I know you would much rather be home, and am happy you are able to be there now. I love you brother and am excited to see you again soon. Keep being an inspiration to each and every person who visits this site. You are the epitomization of determination and faith. Love you brother, see you soon.

B, you continue to amaze me... even from a hospital bed, you are such a light in this dark world! You touched the lives of so many of those who had the privilege of assisting you in your recovery, and I know all those nurses, doctors and PT's saw something different in you from your positive attitude and kind spirit. Continue to be a light, taking it one day at a time. You're amazing. Love you B, keep fighting! :) See you soon.

Danielle
Verse of the day! 1 peter 4:12-13, 15-19 Dear friends, do not be surprised at the painful trail you are suffering as though something strange were happening to you. But rejoice that you participate in the sufferings of Christ, so that you may be over joyed when his glory is revealed. If you suffer, it should not be as a murderer or thief or nay other kind of criminal or even a meddler. However if you suffer as a Christian, do not be ashamed, but praise god that you bear that name. For it is time for judgment to begin with the family of god; and if it begins with us, what will the outcome be for those who do not obey the gospel of god? "and if it is hard for the righteous to be saved, what will become of the ungodly and the sinner?" So then, those who suffer according to God's will should commit themselves to their faithful creator and continue to do good. CANT WAIT TO TALK TO YOU! LOVE U!
2008-02-05 01:49:14

Halo, Brandon! I have touched basis with your Mama a couple of times through the holidays, and was very tickled to "hear" your voice through your site! (Yay!) She probably has not relayed, but at my house, we suffer from extreme "blondness" and hit airpockets...it finally registered I can access your updates myself through this site!!!! (Tee hee) Scary thought that there are three others just like me in this world~eh? Anyway, sweet one, I must say I remain impressed with your progress and wish for you to know you are in my prayers and thoughts as a "regular"(not a bad place to be, either, and better than an airpocket!) PLEASE know you are one of God's special ones in that you are brave and knowledgeable beyond your years. These traits alone are gifts from Him; and believe in your heart He does not allow us to endure more that we can handle...and you are perservering as only a child of God. Steadfast, strong, and full of faith. Peace to you and your family, Brandon We love ya guys~ Three Sisters & Company (>:

Hey Brandon, It was so GREAT to see you yesterday and you look wonderful! Just watching you smiling and laughing totally made my day. I have to comment again how great your hair looks. It’s amazing that I couldn’t even see the glue. LOL!!!! I forgot to tell you that I’m getting an “Alicia made blanket” too. I haven’t actually seen it yet but I doubt mine has basketballs. :) The ding dong was doing everything she could to try and keep it a secret from me. She even went as far as to retrieve the scraps from my garbage can but then forgot and left the bag on my table. DUH! Gotta love her. I’m going to try and act really surprised tomorrow morning. HA! I hope you have a Merry Christmas and enjoy your 3 week break. Love, Shelley

Merry Christmas from your cousins back in Mass. Just wanted to let you know that we are still thinking and praying for you. Your laugh still rings in our ears as if it were just yesterday. Remember the skinny belly trick that you and Ryan did....Or who could forget about squeezing the bathroom scales before a newspaper hula skirt dance....Or blowing bubbles thru washcloths!! Sorry Brandon but you need to fill in the details to your friends about our visits from Massachusetts. Enjoy the magic of the Holidays with your family and friends. We love ya.

The other day I was telling my family the story how we ate those buffalo wings at Espn Zone and we were cryin because they were so hot. But refused to stop eating them until they were all gone.

HEY B! So I was at work the other day and one of my tables asked me if there was anything I would like them to pray for before they eat their lunch. I pointed to my wristband and told them they could pray for my friend who's battling cancer right now. They then asked for your name and when I told them they just smiled and said they didn't personally know you but had already heard your story and that they pray for you every night! Isn't that so sweet?!? You're such a celebrity Brandon!!! Keep up the faith buddy!!! It's just as powerful as chemo!

Brandon, I never truly got to know you, but if the way everyone feels about you is any indication, you must be one hell of a guy. I’m here to say I’m pulling for you man. I admire your strength of mind, and your tenacity. Many, many men would have balked at lesser challenges than this, and through it all you’ve held your head high and believed. That is truly amazing. I believe in miracles, and it’s clear that you do too. For what it’s worth, you have my love and respect in your corner. Stay strong, and God bless-

Hey Brandon. It warmed my heart to see you at the Skyview game. I know the phsyical toll it takes on you. We love you and are very proud of you. Fight hard and laugh often! Keep those boxing gloves on and kick some cancer butt. Trey's nurse gave this to him...thought you might like it. It's pretty cool. WHAT CANCER CANNOT DO..Cancer is so limited….It cannot cripple love,It cannot shatter hope, It cannot erode faith, It cannot eat away peace, It cannot destroy confidence, It cannot kill friendship, It cannot shut out memories, It cannot silence courage, It cannot invade the soul, It cannot reduce eternal life, It cannot quench the spirit, It cannot lessen the power of resurrection!

Psalm 41 1 Blessed is he who has regard for the weak; the LORD delivers him in times of trouble. 2 The LORD will protect him and preserve his life; he will bless him in the land and not surrender him to the desire of his foes. 3 The LORD will sustain him on his sickbed and restore him from his bed of illness . . . . . . . . . . 12 In my integrity you uphold me and set me in your presence forever. 13 Praise be to the LORD, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting. Amen and Amen. Dude, you are strong! Im thinking bout you!

God doesn't necessarily give us things we can handle-He helps us handle the things we are given. Brandon, I am so proud of you, your strength and your faith even through all the times of adversity, you are such an inspiration to your family. Keep on keepin on, speaking to those mountains, and praying and speaking words of faith. "They that wait upon the Lord, shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings as eagles." (Also, can interpret, as give the weight to the Lord).Love Mom.

The bible says hope to the end for the divine favor that is coming to you. In other words, don't give up. Keep on believing, expecting, declaring. Keep living foavor-minded and God promises that good things will come to you. If you will keep your hope in the Lord, God says divine favor is coming. You may not be able to see it right now. Things may not look good in the natural, but the good news is that if you keep expecting it and declaring it, God's favor will show up. And when God's favor shows up, things are going to change. The favor of God will cause you to rise up out of your problems. The favor of God will keep your enemies from defeating you. Regardless of your circumstances, keep boldly declaring, "God, I know your favor is coming my way!" Never give up on God. The bible says if you will hope to the end, divine favor will come. - joel osteen

Ed was in trouble. He forgot his wedding anniversary. His wife was really mad. She told him "Tomorrow morning, I expect to find a gift in the driveway that goes from 0 to 200 in 6 seconds, AND IT BETTER BE THERE." The next morning, Ed got up early and left for work. When his wife woke up, she looked out the window, and sure enough, there was a medium-sized gift-wrapped box in the middle of the driveway. Confused, the wife put on her robe, ran out to the driveway, and brought the box back into the house. She opened it and found a brand-new bathroom scale. Funeral services for Ed have been scheduled for Friday.

A customer was continually bothering the waiter in a restaurant; first, he'd asked that the air conditioning be turned up because he was too hot, then he asked it be turned down because he was too cold, and so on for about half an hour. Surprisingly, the waiter was very patient, walking back and forth and never once getting angry. So finally, a second customer asked why didn't they just throw out the pest. "Oh, I don't care," said the waiter with a smile. "We don't even have an air conditioner."

A little boy opened the big, old family Bible with fascination, looking at the old pages as he turned them. Then something fell out of the Bible and he picked up and looked at it closely. It was an old leaf from a tree. The leaf had been pressed in between pages. "Momma, look what I found," the boy called out. "What have you got there, dear?" his mother asked. With astonishment in his voice, the young boy answered: "It's Adam's suit!"

Father Murphy was playing golf with a parishioner. On the first hole, he sliced into the rough. His opponent heard him mutter "Hoover!" under his breath. On the second hole, the ball went straight into a water hazard. "Hoover!" again, a little louder this time. On the third hole, a miracle occurred and Fr. Murphy's drive landed on the green only six inches from the hole! "Praise be to God!" He carefully lined up the putt, but the ball curved around the hole instead of going in. "HOOVER!!!!" By this time, his opponent couldn't withhold his curiosity any longer, and asked why the priest said "Hoover." "It's the biggest dam I know!"

Now for some laughter! A man rushed into a veterinarian's office carrying his limp, lifeless dog. The vet examined the animal and told the man the dog was dead. The man asked if there was any way the doctor could revive the dog. The doctor left the room and returned with a cat, who sniffed the dog from head to tail then looked up at the vet and meowed. "Sorry," said the doctor. "There's nothing I can do." "Thanks for trying," said the man with a sigh. "How much do I owe you?" "Three hundred and fifty dollars," replied the doctor. "Three hundred and fifty dollars! Just to tell me my dog is dead?" "Well," said the doctor, "it was $50 for the office visit. The other $300 is for the CAT scan."

Please know your strength and faith are inspirational to all of us and I personally can't wait to see how God uses you in your own life and in the lives of others. Hang in there Brandon, I know you can do it! I am coming up in December, maybe I can come say "hi". Don't stop fighting and I won't stop praying... DEAL?!?

Hi Brandon, GO ASU!!!!!! I bet you were having the greatest time last night. Larry said to come on over next weekend and watch the game with us. The only catch is you have to wear green and yellow! You’re right, he is NUTS! Personally I think you should surprise him and show up in all your ASU wear and demand that you get his crooked chair. I’m cheering for ASU and Larry is totally for the Ducks so I need you here as backup as it’s bound to get ugly. LOL! This website is just the greatest idea ever and I love seeing all the pics from your childhood. You are such an inspiration to all of us and these comments show just how many people you have touched and how much you are truly loved. I heard about the wristbands and would like to make a donation so please let Alicia know how we can place an order. Keep the faith Brandon. We’re all praying for you and know you can beat this again. Big hugs to you! :)

Hi Brandon. I met your dad on Wednesday night. I was in town for a site visit of Portland. I work for GEAPS - Grain Elevator and Processing Society. Your dad is an officer of our Columbia River Chapter. And man is he proud of you. You have an amazing family and friends that surround you with so much love and prayers. It is so wonderful to see. Your dad shared a lot about your treatment and strength. Keep the faith and thank God daily for such wonderful support. I am wearing one of your bands and I do "Believe in Miracles". God Bless You!

Hi Brandon~ As you go for treatment I claim the promise for you in Ps. 91:11"He shall give His angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways." You are strong in the Lord to fight this and we know that the Lord has you cradled in HIS arms. We love you. G'ma and G'pa

JD (Brandon's Brother)
Hey b-dazzle, I often look at this web site, and sorry I haven't written sooner. But as your oldest brother, I do swell with happiness. It is really cool to see how many people are out there praying for you and cheering you on. There are people all over North America that are keeping you in their thoughts and prayers. It is a testament to see how strong the power of prayer can be. It makes the battle easier, when you know it has already been won. Another thing that makes me proud is how many people whose lives have been blessed by you. It is something everyone hopes for (to bless others), but to see who you have touched is quite touching. Don't feel that you have to go to war alone. We are all putting on the armour of God, and will be with you every step of the way. I know your sick of chemo, but it will be over soon enough. I am really proud to be a part of your life, and especially a part of your family. Tristi and I love you so much, and pray for you every day. JD

Stay strong everyone here can't wait for you to come back. I know its hard right now, but if you just even take the time to read all of the comments people have left for you, it shows how many peoples lives you have touched. God has a plan for you…. Something good is going to come out of this, you just HAVE to stay positive, and hope for the best. If there is anyone that can do this, its you! I love u, u crazy kook, I couldn’t imagine what my life would be like without you in it! Thank you for an amazing weekend…now lets plan the next! 1..2..3..4..tell me that… :)……”Wait for the lord , be strong and take heart and wait for the lord.” Psalm 27:14

Kristina C. Cortez (one of Brittany Bauer's friend)
Speak what you seek Delare what is to be... (Isaiah 45:21) If you're going to live a life of victory, you must speak positive words of faith and declare what God says about your situation. Phillippians 4:13 declares that you can do ALL thing through Christ who strenthens you. No matter how inadequate or unqualified you may feel, jesus promises to strengthen and enable you! When the time of adversity comes, what do you say about your situation? Do you declare that you are an overcomer through Christ? Anyone can be positive when things are going well, but the way you respond when adversity comes will make or break you. What you say in the midst of your difficulties will have a direct impact on the outcome. Don't look at the facts of your situation. Look at the truth of God's word. Declare His truth over your situation until the facts line up with His word! Make the decision today that you are going to make it through - and quickly! - joel osteen I heard that you are keeping a very positive attitude and pray everyday you will continue to be filled with God's love and joy! Phil. 4:13 is my personal power verse and it holds a lot of truth! When you put God first and focus on his truth he will give you the strength to go up against all odds! In Christ, you can, because you are never alone in the battles life throws your way! God is always with you ><>

Hey Beezy, I am sitting here in Seattle at my house and all I can think of is being home just hanging out with you. There is nothing in this world that can be compared to spending time with you. You are an incredible person and I know I have said this before, but you have influenced my life so much in the many years I have known you. For that I would like to sincerely thank you once again. I love you and I will talk to you later tonight, and see you tomorrow. Love you man.

Brandon Brandon Brandon...even though you hear it a lot, you truly are an AMAZING person. Through the short time we spent time getting to know each other; you have changed my perspective on how I look at things and have made me want to be a better person, not just for myself but to others as well. Thank you! God has I plan for everybody I always say, and his plan for you is going to be in your best interest, I know this. Remember to keep your head up and I hope to hear from you soon. Anika =) P.S. Your pictures of when you were little are too cute! Your current pictures make me laugh cause I can hear through your smile you saying something ridiculous, like trying to be funny and making fun of me! haha!

You've beat this before and there is no doubt in my mind that you will do it again! You have an amazing support team to help you through everything!

Hey Brandon! I just wanted to let you know that my thoughts and prayers are with you every day. You have been such an inspiration in my life and so many others. It is amazing to me to hear how positive you remain through the toughest of times. You have shown me what true strength and faith is. I prayed for you everyday the first time you were diagnosed, I will continue with strong prayer as I know it will bring results. Grandma and Grandpa wanted me to tell you that "their hearts are heavy" when they think of you, and they love you very much (wow, with those quotation skills I should be a journalist :).

Hey Brandon, I don't know if you remember me, but i am Kalvin's cousin Breann. I am very sorry to hear what you are going through...But I know that God will always be there for you and you will make it!Keep up with the good and positive attitude! Recently I did the walk for Relay For Life through Cheerleading. Each of us had a chance to dedicate a bag to someone who either has cancer or had died from it. So I decided to dedicate one in honor of you. We put sand in each bag and lite a candle. Then, at about 10 P.M. they had turned off all the stadium lights(this was at Battleground High School's Stadium)...and everyone had walked around the track to look at each and every one of the dedicated bags. I just wanted to let you know that we are all thinking of you and are here for you! Breann-

Hey B, First off, if you could erase that blank message I just wrote that'd be great. I don't want everyone thinking I'm a computer monkey. I think I love this site just because I can see your pretty face. :) I don't know about you throwing down gang signs though. Remember, it's for the kids. Anyways, I love you to death. You're faith in times like this is so inspiring and great to see. I think it's rare to see someone with your kind of faith at our age and it's just so refreshing. I'm still working on a mini horse for you so hang in there and start thinking of a name. Love ya like a brother. Joel

This website is sweet. I'm glad You got a good family to hook this up. Your mom dressed you funny as a kid, so did mine, but you pull it off well with the high socks, boots, and the sport jacket. I didn't pull it off so much in red overallls and I still hold it against DoDo. I think it's the smile, you got a good one, mine's been a little crooked most of my life. It straightened up a little after puberty. For the record Jim Edmonds is a pathetic excuse of an outfielder from a baseball standpoint, not a racist one and I'll see ya soon. With love and prayer, G

I love you so much and wanted to let you know that through the power of praying for you, I realized that you are going to be ok and that God has the best plans possible for you. Keep being a witness through God and he will see that your journey is a powerful one. You are my biggest inspiration and I love you for everything you do and what you stand for. Your bro, Chad
