One month from today, Will would have been celebrating his first birthday. We've talked a lot about what we are going to do on that day and how we plan to celebrate and remember Will and have some ideas. We still continue to look for ways to try and celebrate his life, and not mourn what we miss so much.

However, one thing that I would love put together for this occassion is not just a collection of our memories, but also a collection of all of yours. We have heard from countless people about how Will's life touch their own. We were fortunate enough to be able to share Will's story with so many people worldwide and believe everyone took a little something different from Will's courageous battle. We've heard from people who are living differently because of Will; people who are better parents, spouse, siblings, and friends. I would love to be able to collect those stories and tributes.

So what we are looking for is the answer to this question: How did the life of Brave Will impact your own life? If you are up to it, we would love for you to e-mail your own stories to us. They can be as long or as short as you would like, and of course, there is no "right" answer.

We're not quite sure yet what we will do with these, but please be aware that if you send something to us, we are also asking your permission to include this in something that may be published. However, if we were to use your story, we would only be including your first name, first initial of last name, and your hometown (so please include that in your e-mail as well).

All writings can be e-mailed directly to me at mhladun@bravewill.com.

Thank you in advance for anything you are willing to share. You can't imagine how much your words continue to support us and keep us going each and every day.

Please don't forget to join us over at BraveWill.com...

Thank you!
