Brandon's Dream

Meet Brandon

Meet Brandon, a 21-year-old with a life-changing brain tumor whose Dream of attending the X Games came true in a big way… Brandon is a 21-year-old Matthews resident who wants to be a baseball coach someday. He is a kind, humble, and extremely appreciative young man.  Like many 21-year-old guys, Brandon loves sports, especially baseball and motocross! In his free time, he enjoys riding four-wheelers and dirt bikes, as well as playing baseball.

Brandon’s life was drastically changed in November of 2015 when he was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Brandon had little time to adapt as the next few weeks would prove to be a whirlwind. Just one month after his diagnosis, he had surgery to remove cancer. The surgery removed most of the tumor but left a small inoperable amount that has been treated with chemotherapy and radiation over the past four months.

Brandon’s appreciation for family is evident to anyone that meets him. Brandon was recently married! He and his wife, Dallas, have a beautiful one-year-old son named Levi. Dallas and Brandon make a fantastic team, and with their addition of baby Levi, they make for an incredible family trio. As both a father and husband, the diagnosis has been particularly difficult and he has had to step down from his full-time job to manage his care. Despite it all, Brandon continues to battle these challenges like a champion!

His Dream: Brandon’s dream was to go to a motocross event and watch the athletes compete!
