Beginning the journey

I'm very proud to say that this week resulted in a 15 pound weight loss and potentially raised $851.25 for Angel Eyes. Thank you all again who have pledged money to help families who have also suffered the unexpected loss of a child.

This week and next will be an emotional roller coaster. Next Sunday is Brady's 1st Birthday and this becoming more difficult than I ever thought it would be. This is something that every parent that loses a child to SIDS has to face and there isn't a way around it. Like any part of this journey I know that I need to embrace the pain knowing this is part of the healing process. I would like to think Angel Eyes for sending a nice letter remembering Brady's Birthday and enclosing tips on how we can get through the difficult day. This is another great example of how Angel Eyes helps parents going through this.

I will check in next week to let everyone know my results.

The first time I held my son. 4/29/11 The best day of my life. I love you Brady.

Tomorrow is the day

Tomorrow is the day that I have been both looking forward to for over a month. For every pound that I lose between 4/16 and 10/16 $50.75 will be raised for angeleyes.org. This will be a lot of blood, sweat, and tears but it will be a great way to honor my son and to help others through a great cause. If you have pledged thanks again for all of your support. If you haven't yet but are interested please let me know. You can send me an email to adambrookhart@gmail.com, post on my facebook page, or add a comment on this blog. Just let me know how much per pound you would like to pledge.
