For Brett Bramble, Sundays in autumn are meant for Falcons football. Brett's dad purchased season tickets when the team played in Fulton County Stadium, and recently, he gave them to his son. Missing a game is not usually an option for the Georgia native.
Next season, however, will be different.
Bramble has put football on the back burner as he embarks on a long, winding journey: After losing his sister, Brittany, to overdose in 2014, he’s begun a cross-country walk to raise awareness for drug education and treatment.
“I wish that no one else ever has to have the same hole in their heart," Bramble said.
