‘She does not want to be remembered for this but I think we all know she has a big purpose here that will far surpass the memory of this accident. I am forever grateful she gets the opportunity to experience all this amazing life has to offer her!’
After taking a step back from social media earlier this month to respect her daughter’s privacy as she heals, Michelle said she had special permission to post about this pivotal moment.
‘As she gave me her permission to share this picture, I want to thank you for respecting our privacy and allowing us to process all of this on our own time. Looking forward to a new and beautiful life with this kid. She is my hero.’

Brielle was found by neighbors after coming off her skateboard March 29. The teen wasn’t wearing a helmet and suffered numerous fractures to her skull.
Having endured severe head trauma, she was put into a coma to relieve pressure on her brain once under medical care.
Brielle dealt with another setback come April 8 when she came down with pneumonia.
Luckily, she recovered and was able to be moved out of the ICU on April 12.
She will now continue her recovery at home, a process which dad Ryan said could take six-months to a year, if not longer.
