IT'S NOW BEEN 30 MONTHS SINCE ANDREW'S ACCIDENT AND OVER A MONTH SINCE OUR LAST UPDATE. WE HAVE NOTHING BUT GOOD NEWS.

ANDREW MADE ALL A'S AND B'S THIS PAST SEMSTER OF HIGH SCHOOL, YES MATH, SCIENCE, ENGLISH AND OF COURSE PE!! ANDREW ALSO ATTENDED THE BRIAN INJURY ASSOCIATION ANNUAL  JAMBOREE IN ORLANDO AND HAD A GREAT TIME MEETING AND DANCING, YES DANCING WITH OTHER SURVIVORS.

ANDREW IS SPENDING THIS SUMMER VOLUNTEERING AT THE BOCA YMCA 30 HOURS A WEEK. HE IS DOING A GREAT JOB AND THE KIDS LOVE HIM. ONE MORE SEMSTER OF HIGH SCHOOL TO GO. ANDREW IS NOW STUDYING FOR THE COLLEGE SAT TEST FOR THIS FALL.

AUSTON IS AWAY AT CAMP IN NORTH CAROLINA FOR A MONTH AND IS HAVING A GREAT TIME SAILING, SHARPSHOOTING, PLAYING FOOTBALL AND DOING GUY STUFF. WE MISS HIM LOTS.

WE RAN INTO ALEX VAZQUEZ AT OUR LOCAL TARGET STORE THIS PAST WEEKEND AND HE LOOKS GREAT (ALEX WAS HURT AFTER ANDREW'S ACCIDENT, ALSO IN BOCA RATON).

HEYDIE AND I ARE NOW MENTORS FOR THE BRIAN INJURY ASSOCIATION AND ARE STAYING ACTIVE IN STATE FUNCTIONS MAKING SURE SURVIVORS ARE HEARD AND THEIR NEEDS MET (IT'S A HUGE JOB).
