Like the others, I watched the show, and was smiling ear to ear watching Brittany and her Dad talking over the computer at the end. I was shocked and so sad to see that she passed away. Somehow, I felt invested in her life story, like I knew her. I believe she has saved lives by sharing, and losing hers. I hope your family is finding peace and strength in one another. My sincere condolences.

My heart absolutely breaks for her family and friends. I pray God has given you all strength to try and get through this awful time. May Britney continue to rest in paradise with the Lord. God bless you all!

Brittany's Family, I am so sorry. I did not know her, but saw her story. It reminds me of my own, even the father-daughter part of it. We had things in common that led us down the same path- so I felt her pain watching the story, as well as the pain of the rest of the family. I really don't know what to say for comfort, but know she has not passed in vein and her story and spirit will continue to live on and help others. She was so beautiful.

I watched Intervention of Brittany's story. It caught my attention to find out she lived in Derby, where my son lived. I live in Wichita, and just felt a connection since she lived so close, and so close to the age of my kids. I hoped and prayed she would recover. It broke my heart the day I saw her obituary. I hope you all are finding some peace. And for her father, I hope and pray you are doing well.

I saw your family's story just today and was so sad to hear of Brittany's passing. I know this might not mean anything coming from a complete stranger, but the love you showed Brittany as a family was truly inspiring. Sometimes we don't understand why we go through things in life, but I truly believe everything has a purpose. Your family's story has touched me and I know it has touched many others. I am so sorry for your family's loss, and I will be praying that God grant you his peace as you go through this difficult time.

I have known Brittany and her Family since back when she was a Curious, Cute and Bright little girl.
After loosing touch, I later had the PLEASURE of photographing her senior photos.
She was so much Fun to work with! Brittany had grown up to become such a Beautiful, Spunky, and Kind Hearted young lady!
My heart broke for the family when I heard the news of her passing. You are ALL in my thoughts... if there is anything I can do please feel free to contact me.
Peace and Love to all...

I knew Brittany through her mother and then later as a co-worker at Kennedy Tech. She had a gentle heart and a zest for life that I always appreciated. She has left a multitude of people behind who are the better for knowing her, which must be one of the best legacies that anyone can leave behind them. I pray that she finds rest in the Christ's arms and that her family is wrapped in the Lord's peace that passes all understanding.

We did not keep in touch often after our high school days but I am deeply saddened by the news of her death. The Brittany I knew was funny, open-minded, caring, and a free spirit. I knew her for almost 18 years and every time I was with her was an exciting and great time. I can't believe this has happened and am deeply sorry for Britt's family's loss and grieving.
Until we meet again Britt...
