IN LOVING MEMORY OF JOHN MICHAEL C.
aka: CHRISTOPHER WAYNE (by his birth Mom)
aka: MICHAEL BRANDON (by us, his foster parents)
FEBRUARY 10 1981 - AUGUST 11,1999
"Michael was a precious little baby, alert and wide awake all day.. but then awake and seemingly to be in pain at night.. But he and I only grew closer at night when we spent so much time together alone, while the rest of the family slept. He was a very precious and loving child.. our precious Foster child, a true blessing! We got him just before he turned 6 weeks old and had been told we would be allowed to adopt him..
==================================
Come to find out, the ones over the Foster Care Program back then told many FOSTER PARENTS that they could adopt.. then backed out.. I think for the most part just to keep a good many families willing to keep being Foster parents .. But, that don't make it right! A lie is a lie, and we all were lied to many times over Michael... (when we compare what we were told back then.. you can just figure the plans from the start.. and true to most other children, USUALLY they were adopted out of the county or city to the other side or so of the state. They called it "in protection of the child" ... Personally I say, Lies are lies! THIS PICTURE IS FROM LEFT TO RIGHT.. JEFF (our second son) NORMAN (our third son) CHRIS (our oldest son) holding MICHAEL (our Foster son, our son of our hearts)
HE CALLED THE BOYS "BRUB BRUBS" guess his way of saying Brother! JUST HEARING THEM SURELY MADE HIM HAPPY! AND SEEING HIM MADE THEM ALL HAPPY!
------------------------------------------------------------
THIS PICTURE IS MICHAEL, CASSIE (OUR NIECE, IN HER "DRESS UP PLAY CLOTHES") AND MY HUSBAND NORMAN. BELOW IS MICHAEL AND I, BUT NOT A VERY CLEAR PICTURE 
AGAIN, NORMAN (FOSTER DAD) AND MICHAEL ON HIS LAP, ONE OF HIS FAVORITE THINGS TO DO.. SIT ON OUR LAP AND BE SWING-ED AND SANG TO (*.*) "no! we wouldn't have spoiled him rotten and loved doing it, lol ... no more than he loved being the center of attention and loving all the love he could get ... lol)
MICHAEL AND "OLE GEORGE" ALL THE KIDS LOVED THAT MONKEY! WE TOOK HIS PICTURE, PAINTED HIS HAND AND HE PLACED IT ON THE PICTURE.. GLAD WE HAVE HIS LITTLE HAND PRINT.. funny thing was that when you would hold that picture up to him, (it was a 5 X 7 originally) he would try to get his little hand back on his print and turn it this way and that to match it up... LOL ...... smart little fella!
===========================
MICHAEL'S FIRST BIRTHDAY PICTURE.. SITTING ON THE SWING BY HIMSELF.. JUST LAUGHING AT ME TRYING TO TAKE HIS PICTURE AND TRYING AT THE SAME TIME TO GET HIM NOT TO TRY TO SWING SO HE WOULDN'T FALL OFF.. HE WAS SOOO CUTE!
THESE PICTURES BELOW ARE TRULY BLESSINGS TO HIS BIRTH MOTHER AND US.. THEY WERE SENT TO HER DAUGHTER AFTER MICHEAL DIED BY HIS ADOPTIVE MOTHER... ALSO A VERY LOVING WOMAN! THANK YOU SO MUCH.
THANKS GOD FOR TAKING SUCH GOOD CARE OF MICHAEL.. GOD, I KNOW YOU HAD YOUR PLANS.. BUT IT SURE BROKE OUR HEARTS TO HAVE HIM SENT ELSEWHERE.. GUESS SHE MUCH HAVE "NEEDED HIM MORE THAN YOU THOUGHT WE DID" BUT, YOU REMAINED WITH US ALL AND HELPED US ALL, INCLUDING MICHAEL.. AND WE GIVE YOU OUR THANKS!
=================================================
PRECIOUS AND PRICELESS, ISN'T HE???
================================
THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED TO MICHAEL... "GOD BLESS!"
Duchene's Muscular Dystrophy: 
WE ALL LOVE YOU MICHAEL
WE WISH YOU COULD HAVE REMEMBERED US ALL TELLING AND SHOWING YOU OUR LOVE! TO EACH OF OUR HEARTS.. YOU WERE OUR PRECIOUS, PRICELESS LITTLE BOY! A TRUE BLESSING
SHE SAID HIS LOVED HIS HAMSTER.. REMINDS ME OF US AND ALL THE ANIMALS WE HAVE IN OUR LIVES AND LOVE SOOO DEEPLY! I AM GLAD THAT HE HAD HIS HAMSTER TO CLING ON TO, WHENEVER HE NEEDED AN EXTRA LITTLE FRIEND.
BOY HE LOOKS SOOOO MUCH LIKE HIS BIRTH MOM HERE (DARLENE, I THINK YOU CLONED HIM)
EVERYONE'S
===============================================
HE'S IN HEAVEN NOW! WAITING FOR EACH OF US TO COME.. KEEPING HIS ADOPTIVE FATHER COMPANY .. ALONG WITH THE FIVE LITTLE ONES WE LOST, AND OUR PARENTS AND SIBLINGS AND HIS MANY, MANY OTHER RELATIVES.. REMEMBERING EVERYONE NOW! WE LOVE YOU SO, AND WE'LL SEE YOU AGAIN, AND THEN YOU WILL KNOW AND REMEMBER..
STANDING, WALKING,
AND FACE TO FACE WITH JESUS!
