Brandi is an amazing woman indeed and has a wonderful and supportive family. She has a road to recovery, but, I have no doubt she will make it!
Brandi I will be praying for y’all. Y’all look great. Nice to see you are recovering and in good hands. I used to help baby sit your daughters with Heather. Caught y’all’s story in a magazine. I recognize Madison from almost 10 years ago! Y’all take care.
Awesome story! It was great to watch Brandi’s progress! She is quite a woman surrounded by a strong family! So glad they chose RSFH for Brandi’s care!
