Hi, my name is Jerad and I am 7 years old. I
have a 4 year old brother, Austin. Austin is not only
special because he is my brother, but also because he has
cerebral palsy. I don't really understand all that means,
just that he can't do the same things that I do. He can't
walk, run, or even talk like I can. I know that Austin takes
more of my mom's time so I try to understand when mom can't
do something for me because she is helping brother. I love
my brother better than anything and would do whatever I
could to help him. Sometimes mom and me or dad and me do
things together all by ourselves which makes me feel really
good. Sometimes mom gets me a sitter when she thinks I need
a special friend all of my own. It is great having someone
to just be my special friend. I guess what I'm trying to say
is that I wouldn't trade my brother for anything because I
love him just the way he is and if someday he can do all of
those things great!!! But if he can't I'll still love him
just the same!!!! I say my prayers and ask God to help
Austin to do the things that he can't do, so I know that he
will be okay. He is the coolest brother that anyone could
ever ask for!!! I'm gonna put a link to his page below so go
and visit him too!
