I only joined yesterday but feel like I've already met a group of new online friends. I'd like to share something I hope others will become as interested in as we are as a family. A relative and son of a former Techster is a contestant on the new America's Got Talent premiering June 17 and it already appears he is capturing the hearts of America.

If you watch much TV, you've probably already seen this promotional video (wait through the brief advertising).

Donald "Chips" Braswell, the man singing "Wind Beneath My Wings", is my husband's cousin's son. Chips had just begun a promising singing career when he was seriously injured while touring with an opera company in Wales. He was hit by a car while bicycling, his neck and throat damaged to such an extent he was told he'd never speak normally again, much less sing.

This is his first stage appearance in eleven years.

If you watch the video clip and want to, please leave a comment.
