The Brighton StoryA story of hope and transformation

The day the baby came was full of joy and bliss

But that little baby also brought an unexpected twist

For this little baby had complications from its very first breath

And there were a couple moments where it even neared death

Once upon a time in a land not so far away

There was a Mommy & a Daddy expecting a baby any day

They had attended all the classes and with all the baby items bought

They were ready as they could be… or so they really thought

Once upon a time in a land not so far away

There was a Mommy & a Daddy expecting a baby any day

They had attended all the classes and with all the baby items bought

They were ready as they could be… or so they really thought

This couple was so scared; no one had prepared them for this

What do they do now? Where do they go? They felt lost as if in an abyss.

Everywhere they turned doctors were filling them with bad news

Telling them the worst they could expect and all the things their baby would never do

Then they heard of a place called Brighton and that they could likely help them out

They went straight there without delay but were still filled with so much doubt

But as they entered Brighton’s doors, they felt something strange begin to occur

Feelings of relief, comfort and hope were starting to stir

The Brighton army invaded them with therapists, counselors and teachers alike
