Hello Autty

"Hello Autty."

Heart….melted….I mean like, completely done for. Gone. Goodbye. See ya.

I can't even begin to explain to you in words, how happy that made me. I don't understand it, and I can't comprehend it…the amount of love I feel for this boy, and the love he feels for everyone around him.

It doesn't matter what's going on outside that hospital room because as soon as you walk in it, and see him…everything is okay. Things make sense, and it's all put back into perspective. Happiness, that's what it is. Real happiness. I mean how can that smile of his not make you happy, how can him trying to say I love you, hello and thank you not just make you want to cry happy tears. It is the sweetest thing. And the most humbling thing in the world, because if a boy who has gone through the absolute worst of the worst can be happy and full of light regardless of his situation…can't we all? Honestly it feels like I'm hanging out with a little piece of heaven every day.

Looking back on the last couple of days, which weren't easy for Britt…and seeing how he handled it amazes me. Yeah he was in a lot of pain, feeling a lot discomfort, and probably really frustrated and upset. But he was trying so hard to be tough and keep that light hearted personality of his. It was so good to see him crack some smiles today and feel a little bit better. He is doing much better after yesterday's surgery!

My family and I are so thankful for all the support and love, I know I have said it a million trillion times but I aint neva gonna stop, cause we wouldn't be here, and neither would my brother, without you..without everything all of you have done for him and for us. Everyday we ask ourselves. Why us? We don't deserve all of this. The endless phone calls and text messages, the selfless service and kind acts, the donations, the fundraisers, the sweet notes from strangers, all of the prayers, all of the hope, whether you know him or not, all of the dinners, the flowers, all of it. And maybe we don't…but that brother of mine does. He does. He deserves it. Every last bit of it. So thank you. Thank you for being there for not only Britt, but my mom, my dad, Greyson, Ledger and myself. We draw strength and comfort through you, you build us up, and you help us along. We are like one big giant family, and it's gonna take the whole dang family to get through this. You've helped us this far. Keep beleiving for our Britt.
