Brian writes about caring for his son, Little Brian, who was diagnosed with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome in 2015 after experiencing infantile spasms that began at 8 months of age. Brian lives in the Tampa Bay, Florida, area with Little Brian's mom, Jendi, and their two daughters.  Although Lennox-Gastaut syndrome is devastating and without a cure, Little Brian's smile reminds them each day should be cherished, no matter how difficult it may be.
