This is the story about how he survived. He has a dad who lived up in Canada. Brian was on his way to see him because his mother had cheated on his father and divorced him, so his father moved away. Brian's mother didn't know that Brian knew she had left his father for another man and the secret was killing him. His mother gave him a hatchet before he left to see his father.
