To Collicat:
thank you for staying around on this forum and "Paying it Forward". Yes, I cried reading your post below 
because I know exactly what you mean about seeing that sparkle. This year has taken a toll on my son both emotionally and socially and I only want him to be happy and full of life again.
To: Worried Mom 1,
Thank you for sharing your experiences, it has made this whole experience for me easier to handle by being able to communicate with people who are experiencing, or who have experienced, the same thing I am going through with Brandon.
To: Mustlovedogs,
I am thinking of you and your daughter and hope that she is feeling better soon.
I am looking forward to brighter days ahead!! Thanks again for all the moral support!
