Debbie Gilmore was pregnant with her son Brandon when her older child, Matthew, passed away due to complications from his open-heart surgery to fix his congenital heart defect. Today Brandon will share with us what it has been like to be a Rainbow Baby -- a baby born after a sibling dies. He will tell us about the void he has felt with the loss of his brother, another unexpected sibling loss and how an unexpected friend from halfway across the world has become as close to him as he feels he might have been to Matthew. Discover the relationships Brandon has had over time, what he cherishes about those he loves and how he has finally come to feel a sense of belonging now that he is a young adult.
