BRANDON'S WISH

I shot some photos today for the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Michigan. It was part of Brandon's wish. He and his family watch a Detroit Lions practice and then had the chance to meet most of the players afterward. He was a little shy but hey hes 10 and meeting all these pro ball players he watches on TV. Then after most the players had left Brandon and his dad went out onto the field to throw a ball around and kick field goals. He was all smiles. The Lions are not have a good season but Brandon is still a big fan. And all the players, present and past, and coaches were real nice to him when they could be all grumpy. The family is going to the game on Sunday the they get to ride on a float in the Thanksgiving Day parade in Detroit then go to the Thanksgiving Day ball game. One of the players said to him, "I know you are here to see your favorite (football) stars but with what you have gone through and your toughness you are the real star!"
So true. I love shooting for Make-A-Wish. They are such a wonderful organization!
