He's hilarious. He's been on Jay Leno. He was also born with muscular dystrophy and has spent 43 years of his life confined to a wheelchair.
Yesterday I saw Brett do an hour of stand up (sit down, rather) comedy and it was really funny but also really inspiring. His philosophy is that life is full of problems but you've got to be able to find the humor in every problem. As he spoke about his life, he really put things in perspective: life is a miracle, life can be difficult, but life is SO precious. It's amazing to see someone who's lived such a difficult life, love life so much more than those more fortunate.
So next time you get caught off on the highway or have a rough day at work... take a moment to consider how lucky you are to be living.
