    • About Me

      I am the mother of 2 wonderful children. My son Al is 31 and My Angel Brittany, who was 18years old when she passed on 9/12/05. She was at college for just 3 weeks. Her roommate found her dead in the shower. There were no drugs or alcohol involved. The coroner first told us it was anaphylactic shock eventhough she had no idea what from. When questioned she did further testing and said she had a bronchial spasm. At the first autopsy she told us our daughter's left ventricular arteries in her heart were the size of a in head, but insisted this was not the cause of her death. I feel like I have no closure.Brittany was an amazing young lady and my best friend. I miss my Angel each & every day.
