    DJFyrewolf36 - You are so right about how Brandon was. He has been fighting those tumors since he was 10 years old and never once did I hear he said "WHY ME?"! The funny stories I have heard through all this about him! The jokes he pulled on people or just how he could pull the wool over someones eyes to prank them. His friends are posting on his facebook page and posting pictures of better times and it seems he was always the one they could call and depend on in the middle of the day or night when they needed someone to talk to. He was always there for them..... There is so much love pouring out on his page and his Mom's page.

    They said he is heavily sedated now or in a coma and he will not wake up again. It has been 3 days Sis said since any of them have had any sleep. Marie (my daughter Rie) if flying out in the morning to go be with Cindy. I think Brandon is still hanging on to show his Mom they were wrong about that being his last day! He has always did things his way and nobody is going to tell him what day he will die! His Mom and Grandma have told him is is ok for him to go when he is ready to go and told him they will be ok..

    This is one of the pictures someone posted of Brandon and his Mom. Just about every picture they are in together, his arm is around her or he is kissing her or she kissing him. I LOVE this picture. The relationship between them is like none you ever saw between a mother and a son, they were totally and completely devoted to each other.

    Such a handsome young man!

    Brandon passed peacefully at 3:45 (Washington) time. I am so sad but releived that his suffering has ended. May he rest in peace free of pain and be whole again. They are donating what organs they can. They know they can donate his eyes but not sure about anything else.

    They told me to tell all of you
    "Thanks for all the prayers and concern through out all these years. It has meant a lot to the family that so many prayers went up on Brandons behalf, that so many people cared, so THANK YOU so much!"

    I'm so sorry, Laura. Please convey my condolences to all of his family.

    RIP dear Brandon. Your struggle has now ended, and your days of peace and rest have just begun. I pray that your family can find comfort in knowing this. You were truly loved by many and will be sorely missed by all.

    Wet eyes here...

    I am glad he went so peacefully and that he was comfortable in his last days, and surrounded by all the love in the world.

    I truly hope there is long term help there for his mom. She will need all the help she can get. Her family is there, but I think she will need extra help for some time to come.

    Hugs and prayers to everyone.
