BACKGROUND - Beth & David Lorson rushed to Barberton Citizens Hospital at 11:00 P.M. on June 3rd 1983 soon after her water broke. On June 4th 1983 at 3:00 A.M. labor began. The baby was up high in the womb and took a while to come down, therefore, the Ceasarean Section team was on stand by. Essentially, after a exhausting 9 hours, at 11:50 A.M. their 2nd miracle was born. He was born weighing in at 7 pounds 14 oz - and was 20 inches long, with a 34 inch head circumference topped with Brown / Blonde hair. Beth & David decided to name this child after 2 boys that her mom babysat for, Brian & Michael -- giving the baby the name Brian Michael Lorson, who now is 25 years old, standing at 6’1 and weights 145 pounds with auburn (reddish-brown) hair & dimples.
After the birth of Brian, the newborn was close to having a blood transfusion. Instead this child was placed under Bilirubin Lights - also known as Phototherapy. These lights are used to help infants with juandice, a yellow coloring of the skin and eyes related to abnormal liver function. Phototherapy is performed on infants who have elevated levels of bilirubin in the blood. Blue fluorescent lamps generate specific wavelengths of light that help break down bilirubin into nontoxic water-soluble components that can then be excreted. Bilirubin in the blood is normally converted by the liver to an easily excretable form. A newborn infant's liver can only convert a limited amount of bilirubin into this form. If blood levels of bilirubin become too high, the liver may be overwhelmed, leading to sustained high levels in the blood. When this happens, bilirubin may enter body tissues, producing the characteristic yellow eyes and skin of juandice (hyperbilirubinemia). Bilirubin also may enter brain tissue, where it can cause permanent brain damage if levels become too high.
Beth & David’s first miracle was born on October 2nd, 1980. This child would be my sister Nicole, who is is my only sibling. I can not release her middle name - she will shoot me, but she is now 27 years of age and got married on May 6th, 2005 to Matthew G. Freed, who is 31 years young.
Recently, on October 5th, 2007 Matt & Nicole had their greatest gift arrived into this world. They had a little girl, Kaitlyn Marie! She was born at 10:33 am and weighed 4 lbs - 14 oz. She arrived to this world a little early, but due to the situation they believed it was best that she came out and joined us. Mommy Nicole and Baby Kaitlyn are both doing just fine -- which is awesome! You can view tons of photos of the 2 in my photo albums!
As a young child I was the type of kid who was a "momma's boy". I was basically her shadow - where she went, there I was! The day I was scheduled to start kindergarten, I cried because I did not want to start school. I was scared so my mom actually let me start a year later. However, once I started school & I seemed to enjoy it... and did quite well. I attended Memorial Elementary, Highland Middle, and Barberton High School.I was known (or lack there of) as the "kid who didn't say a word" so I wasn't obviously well known. I was born SHY and still remain shy, but not nearly as much -- now I'm just not much a conversationalist. If I don't talk to you, that doesn't mean I dislike you or hate you in any way, it's just simply that I'm a listener... not a chatter. For those reasons, I made few friends, basically I just went to school, did my work, earned my grades and left. I wasn't there to assiciate with people. However, I have met awesome friends off the wonderful thing called the internet a while back - who have made better friends with me than the ones I befriended in real life. My BEST FRIEND however, is my one and only 2 year old golden retriever TOBY! (My sister & Matt are the proud owners of Toby’s sister, SADIE -- so we’re just 1 big family!) Toby is really the only one I can trust, besides family. I’m learning as days pass to live life by three letters, DTA which stands for DON’T TRUST ANYBODY.

THINGS I ENJOY - playing sports (baseball, basketball, bowling), catching a horror or comedy movie, hanging out with friends (if and when they come around), chatting on-line (which I'm on quite often since I don't have much of a life), keeping up to date with WWE (professional wrestling) and country music. I enjoy getting the pleasure of meeting stars from the WWE & Country Artists & collecting their autographs. I have met so many stars from both categories in 2006 and hope 2007 holds the same - I can't thank 94.9 WQMX enough!
I also spend my time once a year going Ghost Hunting. Sounds crazy right? WRONG! It's super Fun and for all you skeptics out there.. Paranormal Activity & Ghosts DO Exist. I have a stash of ghost hunting equipment such as: Digital Camera, Video Camera, Infrared Night Vision Glasses, EMF Detector, a Temperature Guage (which detects any change in temperature - any sudden drop in temperature shows a sign of paranormal activity) and a Digital Voice Recorder (picks up voices from beyond the grave, also known as EVP - Electronic Voice Phenomenon) If you haven't been to Gettysburg, PA... I highly suggest going!
(Expecially 13 days before Halloween, is when it all happens)
CAREER - I am currently employed at Busson Photography / Busson Digital . I began working there on February 14, 1999. We are a company that produces Church Pictorial Directories for churches located across the United States. My current and main position there is "Delivery Driver". I drive a Brand New '05 Chevy Express 2500 Van... all around North East Ohio. I deliver our Commercial Jobs to our clients and Church Directories to Churches. When I'm not delivering, I collate and bind church directories. We collate the church directories in a 20 bin (Duplo 5000) collator, which produces books at a very great speed. We have 4 printing presses. 1) Heidelberg SpeedMaster (4 color), 2) Shinohara (6 color), 3) Heidelberg Printmaster (2 Color), 4) HP Indigo 3000. Our newest addition at Busson Digital is the brand new Shinohara.
Busson is a nice place to work, but lately the people there have been pissing me off! It used to be a fun place to work, but now that we've grown into a large & better company it just seems as if it's a slavery camp [for me anyhow -- "Brian, Brian, Brian..." is all I hear! Also, all the employess who actually DO WORK get paid the shit wages, while the people who DON'T work get paid superly.. it's totally "Bass Ackwards"
