About Us

Welcome to the Brookston family blog. We'll post updates here on what's going on in our part of the world, and especially with our son, Porter, who has been diagnosed with some form of autism. Our hope is that this blog will help us deal with all the issues we'll be facing and keep our friends and family informed as well.

Anybody interested in playing fantasy basketball? I only have four players so far and I’d like to get at least double that. Please consider signing up and playing along with us. The season starts November 1 and we need a little time to run the autopick draft, which we’ll turn on Friday October 28. So come on, give it a try. It might even be fun. Besides, what else do you have to do once football season is over?

Here’s the info on how to join:

While I’m driving cross country, I imagine Porter is lounging in his pajamas, watching TV and playing with his rocket, maybe eating a sandwich.
