For anyone who stumbles on this page, an update on life. In March 2012, Briar was diagnosed with a very aggressive brain cancer called Glioblastoma. Her prognosis was grim; she wasn't expected to live through the end of 2012. With a very strong faith in God, and with the help of some amazing doctors at Duke Cancer Center in NC and her local Las Vegas Oncologist at Comprehensive Cancer Center, she lived through April 2015. During those 37 months, we traveled to Hawaii, took 3 cruises through the Caribbean, and MUCH more. She mountain biked in Utah, swam with sea turtles in Kauai, climbed waterfalls in Jamaica, and did all the things that a brain cancer patient "shouldn't be able to do." Despite becoming paralyzed on her left side in summer 2014, she STILL managed another cruise, and to enjoy life with me. The end was quick; the cancer returned with a vengeance in early April, 2015, and she died peacefully on April 25, 2015, at the age of 35 yrs and 2 months. After seeing the photos on this website, and understanding her love of life, how she handled her illness should come as no surprise to any viewer of this website.
I will maintain this website for as long as possible as a memorial to our dear Briar.
