Bill Briggs puts leg braces on his daughter Andrea Briggs in Denver, Colo, May 10.
I recently had the privilege of spending time with Andrea Briggs and her family while working on a story about Andrea’s recovery from a traumatic brain injury. Briggs was critically injured in a car accident on July 26, 2011, while she and a friend were driving to an ice cream store. What I originally thought was going to be a health story was, in fact, a story about love. Watch the video below to meet Andrea, her parents, and to see their remarkable story.
