TeamBretMichaels.com/Life Rocks Foundation Featured Story: Michelle & Kenden Send Their Appreciation.

Dear Bret, We just wanted to send you a HUGE THANK YOU for sending my son Kenden to diabetes camp.

After Patrick and I hung up, I had to sit down and take it all in, overwhelmed I…

My name is Summer. I am 6 years old and on Feb 4, 2013 I found out that I had Type 1 diabetes and hypothyroidism. I think that is the same age as Bret when he found out. My Grandpa has had Type 1 for the last 25 years so myself and my mom were very familiar with diabetes. (My mom says thats why I was so brave in the hospital.) The doctors told my family that I had it only…

TeamBretMichaels.com story: Ava’s spirit and courage

“I met Ava and her Mom Chrisie at Jorja’s All Star Ascend Fun Run. Talk about amazing spirit and courage. Ava had neuroblastoma (the same form of cancer Ronan had), for which there is no cure. So while I had a great time at Barrett-Jackson, it is moments like meeting Ava and Chrisie that remind me just how important and precious life is. While I realize that not everyone can donate to a cause, the simple act of helping to…

Something To Believe In: Melissa’s Story

Something To Believe In: Melissa’s Story

A couple of years ago, I was in a car accident where the driver left me for dead. Even though I had a seat belt on, I flew into the windshield. I had to have my right ear and eyelid re-attached. I broke 3 ribs, dislocated my right shoulder, chipped 2 vertebrae and was bruised internally. I missed 3 months of work. I had to learn to walk again, use my right arm and just heal. The worst part of…
