It is always challenging for us as Christians to convince the secular world that when people become ill, medicine is not the only resource to aid them in regaining their health. Brany was not cured yet he lived a healthy life. He has lived almost forty years and openly expressed that faith is what has kept him alive all these years. He also gives credit and recognizes that without modern medicine approaches his life would have been much worse after the formal diagnosis of PKAN. This contrast goes beyond secular comprehension when one realizes that more physicians have started to use prayers in their practices. Does religious faith contributes to better health? Despite lack of solid evidence, advocates of a growing trend are integrating religious practices in addition to medical treatment and are finding that it works. Many treating physicians are enhancing their effectiveness as medical healers by considering, inquiring about, and attending to the spiritual needs of their patients. Proponents from diverse medical backgrounds are already applying these concepts to their practices considering prayer as the medicine of the future.

In 1990, he obtained a bachelors degree in Secondary Education, while at the same time becoming a U.S. Army Reserve officer, received his commission as a Second Lieutenant. Looking for ways to advance his career after many years working in the non-profit and private sectors, he determined that education was the only way to become more marketable.

At the present, he remains working in the vocational rehabilitation industry assisting individuals with disabilities to achieve competitive employment. As a chaplain officer, he also has the opportunity to provide guidance to culturally diverse individuals in and out of the United States. Today he can affirm that the rehabilitation process will never be completed unless individuals are seen as a whole person. He believes that the inseparable connection between mind, body and spirit will always be part of a holistic and integrated process to live a healthy life one can achieve on this earth as instituted by God.
