Journal entry by Briana Gilles —
Hello All,
Since Brandon passed, friends and family have reached out asking how they might make a donation in his honor. Thank you for your offered generosity and kindness, it truly warms my heart.
I have decided that all donations that we receive will be passed on to others in similar medical situations as Brandon was. He spent his entire illness sharing his thoughts and experiments, successes and failures, not only in an attempt to help himself, but to help others along the way.
Offering some financial aid to others who have spent months, years, or decades trying to get out of an illness that seems to have no end feels like a tiny bit of good I can do. Getting to honor my husband... my loving, warm, silly, joyful and beautifully generous soul of a husband... well, quite frankly, that just feels like the most amazing gift for me.
Thank you for asking how you might honor him.
Thank you for sending our family your thoughts and love.
Thank you for gifting me this opportunity to send Brandon's spirit and joy to others in need.
With Gratitude,
Briana
