Hey Zach,
Glad to hear the good results of the MRI. God continues to Bless you and I know you will get into Med school. Lots of hard work ahead but you are determined and I know you will do well.
You are an inspiration to all the young people that have met you. They are seeing how strong you are and the determination to reach your goals and not let anything in your way. We are all proud of you for carrying on and striving for what you want and never giving up.
We will pray for the acceptance into Medical School.

God Bless,

okay -- wow. if they do not let him in on that essay alone -- they are fools. I am sitting here at work with tears in my eyes knowing that every word of that essay is so heartfelt and true. What an amazing physcian he will be! I was wondering about a few things he left out of the essay -- calling the pharmacy to track down pain meds, rolling around in his wheelchair with pupils the size of pin heads and of course his general attitude of "mischief". Ha-ha!!!! Love you all! :)

Hi Zach! We were traveling back to Texas today from Arkansas and a fun filled weekend with Chase when we stopped at the Starbucks for coffee and guess what we saw on a car! Your Bumper sticker "prayzach.com" and we just couldn't believe it! We had to get home and see if that Zach was the same Zach we know and sure enough it is! It's a small world isn't it! I hope this note finds you wonderful! Chase has 3 more treatments! Yeah!!!! We will have a big end of treatment party for him!!!

Just a note to say you are thought of and cared for!

I have been unable to attend church lately (work) and probubly won't get the chance to come for several more weeks, so I just wanted to say on here that I am extreamly glad to hear that everything turned out so well with Zach's Biopsy and that there was at least good news...though I am sorry that a surgery was nessesary in order to find out.
My family always keeps your family close in our prayers and I just wanted you to know that you and Zach and the rest of your family are a great inspiration to me and others as you hold so strong, maybe even stronger, to your faith thru everything that has come your way in these last few years. God has his reasons for everything.

Lonoke, AR USA - Thursday, February 22, 2007 12:56 AM CST
Glad things are in your favor. Perhaps the belly button issue won't be an issue because they won't recommend surgery. However, just in case, my vote is to keep the button in place----in fact, I would ask them to build you another one so you have two.
Loretta
Baton Rouge, LA - Thursday, February 22, 2007 11:56 AM CST
Elijah thinks it would be totally awesome for you to NOT have a belly button. I think I may have to ponder it a bit more. I tend to agree with the life giving connection to your mom viewpoint and say that you should keep it. :) That may just be the mom in me though. We can't wait to see you guys! We miss and love you very much.

Thanks for the info on Zach and the rest of the family. You are all so busy. Enjoy these years as they grow up and are gone before you know it. The hummingbird study is so interesting. We have three feeders but only 2 or 3 hummers. We love watching them but wish we had more. To me children are pure blessings from God. Bless you all.

Zach I just want to say that I thank God for the attitude that you have about your disease because God truely is our Lord and Savior and he knew from the foundation of the earth that this was going to happen so its not by chance but this is your cross that you have to carry and if you just believe God is going to bring it to pass. By his stripes we are healed and I know it to be true, I was diagnosed with a muscle disease called polymyositis that crippled me and had me in a wheel chair for two years and I kept believing that I was going to be healed and I am. I am going to be praying and believing that God is going to heal you completly and I know that he will because he has no respect of person, I don't even know you but I know it will be alright because of your faith, God Bless You.

I saw your name and website on a car bumper and I will add you to my prayer list. While I don't have anything as serious as you I have RA and I'm in grad school at TAMU-T and I know what it is like to try and work while sick. I had to take chemo for my disease and I think the drugs can be as bad as the disease. Hang in there. Faith is definitely the best and only first line of defense. I also use my incredibly sick sense of humor and if all else fails when you get knocked down one time too many I use spite. I try to tell myself I won't let my disease take one more day. I hope God blesses you with good health!

I am so glad that you are doing so much better! Keep up the good work! Looks like you have an awesome family to encourage you. I found out about you through a TX-side firefighter named Ken Craig that goes to my church. I know that you will love scuba. I am a "non-swimmer" myself, but have some friends that have taken the class and loved it. I pray that our awesome God will continue to pour out His blessings on you!!!

Hi Zachary. It sounds like I have missed a little bit of drama since I started clinics and have not had time to hit the computer here at work. I am glad to hear the pneumonia is getting better and that the CT scans have been good news other than the pneumonia. What class are you taking that requires the type of presentation you did? It sounds interesting. I hope classes are going well for you and that you continue to feel better. You are always in my prayers, even when you don't hear from me. Take care and lots of love to you.

My husband is handicapped, and we have handicapped critters in our yard. We have a squirrel that has no tail, one with no tail and one arm missing, and a Cardinal with oneleg missing. Humm!

Hi Zachary and family. I did not realize you were still having some lung problems. I am sorry to hear that. However, I am more than delighted by the recent CT scan. It sounds like good efforts are coming together to resolve the remaining problems and that is great news about the meds. I am amazed and inspired every day by what God has done in your life!!! Take care and enjoy the workings of a new semester at school. Scuba is probably much nicer in warm weather anyway!! Love you.

We too are terribly sorry that we missed you yet again. I think Chase would really benefit from some of Zach's fighting spirit. We looked for you early, but after sedation and a spinal, he was just not up to much of anything. We will definately have to see you in 2 weeks, we should be in clinic ALL day for chemo. Our prayers will be that they find absoulutely nothing but a completely healthy Zach in the scans. Look forward to seeing you, Carrie, Chase, Matt, and Catie

When we first met, you were in so much pain.. now you are getting ready to go back to school and get your scuba certification!! Praise God! What great news, Zach. We hope we get to see you tomorrow when you come for clinic. Elijah's face lit up when we told him you were might be here. We need to get a picture of the two of you so we can post it on his website.

Hi there.. If we would have had time, I would have liked to have taken a picture of you and Elijah. He had a great birthday celebration at the hospital. It was so great to see you looking so great (limp and all). Elijah will be going in for stem cell harvest soon. I wish I would have thought to have you talk to him about that. He might actually think it was cool if he knew that you did it!! Stay strong!

Jayla's appt. was at 8:15 and we were out of there by 10:15 (this was a record- it usually takes until 11:30 to get her chemo but they were on the ball with us at least sorry you had such a long wait) Glad to hear you are doing so well and the scans came back all clear!! Praise God!! Jayla still goes every week for chemo and her last treatment will be July 26, 2006. So until then we must endure clinic every week unlike some people- Ha!!(I read Steve bragging about this) Miss you all but glad you are done and doing GREAT!! Love, Jill, Jayla and Jace

Zach,

Hey! Long time no see or talk. I have been wondering about you and how things were going. I have kinda lost touch with Michelle here lately. I was pulling on to Richmond road the other day and I pulled behind this suburban that had a bumpersticker that said www.prayforzach.com, so I decided to check it out and here I am. You know I always thought you were pretty awsome to hang out with. Then finally after collecting with you for about a year, tword the end of Field biology, you looked at me and said "You know Misty, you're all right". Oh, by the way I still have the photos of the 3 moons over Galveston, TX. (That picture was taken on the Field Biology trip to the Gulf of Mexico.) Shoot me an email sometime. It would be nice to hear from you.

Zach: I wish I could have been there for the concert with my good friend, Mike Card. Just know that many of us have been praying for you ever since your diagnosis. In two weeks, I'll be running in the Memphis St. Jude Marathon in an effort to raise support for cancer research. I'll be wearing a band on my wrist--as I do at all of my runs--for each of my friends who are currently in treatment. You're among them. So, every mile I will be thinking of and praying for you. May the Lord continue to strengthen you, restore you, and multiply your influence. Standfast in grace.

Hey Zach, I found your page from Caleb's site. Honored to pray for you. Your testemony on the home page is awesome! Hey, with the Holy Spirit hooked up with the fightin' Aggie spirit, you gotta be in great shape. Reading that you are a fellow Ag made me homesick for College Station. Keep up the fight and keep on praising God along every step of the way. I'll pray for you daily and pop into your site from time to time to see how you are doing. Gig 'em! Lis

What an awesome night you all had! I know it was special for all of those involved! Thought about you all alot this weekend -- thankful for all of the good that has come from all of the bad! Love and miss you!
PS I was reading Graham some of the guestbook entries, and when I got to the ones about snakes, he had a question, and it was:
Does Mr. Zach have an anaconda? Because if he does, he should be careful with it!
dont you just love a 5 year old! :)

Hey Zach and Family, I am sorry we were not able to be at the concert. Marissa had a ballgame. She actually got to play for a little bit. I was so touched by the statement on the home page that said patient room number "HOME" that I almost cried. You and your family continue to be on our thoughts and prayers. Continue to grow strong and let God's light shine through you as you already have. In Christian Love, Terri McCullar Marissa's Mom

Hi Becky,
This is Cindy and John Rowland - we met you in Little Rock several months ago at the GuestHouse Inn when Zach was in the hospital there. John has been through 2 sets of chemo, a mega dose(Melphalan)chemo and his first stem cell transplant for Multiple Myeloma. We are back home in Savannah, GA right now (we've been home 2 weeks - were in LR for more than 3 months) and have to return to LR in mid-January for the second stem cell transplant. If you should happen to be there at that time, please let us know. You and Zach have been in our prayers ever since we met you and we often wondered how he was doing. John just found the card with your "Bridge" address in our stuff from LR (it's been lost for several months). It was great to read a few of the most recent comments that showed Zach is doing well. What a great event to have Michael Card do a concert! I hope it was a huge success. Our love and prayers for Zach's complete remission/recovery. God bless you both and your whole family.

Hello Zach, this is Connors mom, Lacey Kennedy, He was the little boy who ate your bacon. I am glad to see that you are doing well and hope you continue to do so, connor has stayed in remission, thank god, and is still waiting to see wether it will come back or wether he is here for good. We have high hopes that it will stay gone, but in case you are wondering he still eats bacon every single day. We will continue praying for you and everyone else on 3 gold.

Good morning Ramsey family,
My name is Becky Pfister and I am Jennifer Robert's mom.
I just wanted to say hi and let you know you are in my thoughts and prayers. I don't know you personally, but have met you through Jennifer.
Zack, you are a true example of what Jesus would want us to do in times like this. You are amazing! Your strength in God is so strong.
I know God's wonderful love also. I was diagnosed with cancer in April of this year. I gave it all to God and He brought me through as He promises. I was so sure He would heal me I never even considered having to go through chemo or radiation therapy. 6 months later I am well on the road to recovery. Our God is so wonderful!!!
I'm looking forward to the concert this week-end. Hope you will be there. In God's love------------Becky Pfister

Hey there. We just wanted to drop you a note and let you know that you are always in our thoughts and prayers. We are getting ready to plan Elijah's 5th Birthday Party and he said "be sure to invite Zach, Mom". I told him you all lived a bit too far for Zach to come to his birthday party but I would be sure he knows he is invited. We will be at ACH this weekend, or we would be there for the concert. We know it will be wonderful evening for your family.
Peace and Grace

Hi Zach... I've just read about you and what you've been going through. You sound like you've got such a fabulous attitude and a wonderful mom to be your cheerleader. God does do great things... so we can never give up, we have to keep our hope and our faith, and pray pray pray! I tell you all this because I know how this is... you see, my son is Chris Hailey of Texarkana who has just turned age 22. He was originally diagnosed with osteosarcoma (bone cancer) back in 12/98 when he was just 15. After 14 months of treatments and 3 surgeries, he was doing really well. Then BOOM.... in June of '03 it was back - more chemo, amputation of the right leg above the knee, and more chemo. It moved to his lung and on 8/2 he just had his entire right lung removed and still on chemo. He's always been just like you even over 7 years now..... never cried, never asked why, but always trusted in our Lord. We KNOW prayer works! I would love to get you and Chris together some time when you're home. You or your mom could e-mail me and maybe we could arrange it sometime... I would love to meet you both, too. Hang in there! You're on my prayer list and I'll pray for you every day.

Dear Becky, you are such a witness of what God wants mothers to be. I appreciate you and how you have related to the things going on in you life. Zach is so blessed to have you for a mother. God has such plans for our lives and we never know what is in store for us till we get there. If we keep Him in our lives we can make it through anything. I have never had a sick child but I was called to be a single mother by the loss of my husband when my children were small. I could not have done it without Jesus as my guide and protector. I did not raise my children alone. He was right there with me. I am not telling you anything you do not know from experience. His love and guidance have been with you through this time of Zach's illness. Well done, he will say to you. Love in Christ, Ms. Sue

So glad to hear that you are improving a little each day. You were quite the talk of the unit when you called the other night. Everyone was happy that you were back to your old self. Chase wants to know how your snakes are? He said that he wants a snake, since you too are a cancer patient that must mean he can have one too. I have told him for the last 3+ years that he couldn't have any animals until we were finished with his treatments. We had actually planned on getting a turtle the day he relapsed. I think a snake is out of the question, cancer or not, lol. Stay strong and keep getting better.

Hello. My name is Shannon Labhart and you don't know me personally. I have at least two things in common with you though. First of all, I used to live in Texarkana. I lived there with my husband from 1996-1999. Secondly, I have a son with a rare form of cancer as well. I was informed about your website through a friend. Her name is Jerrye Grigsby and she is a friend of Zach's sister Jessica. Jerrye thought I may like to read Zach's website since both of our son's have a rare form of cancer. My son's name is Drew Henry Labhart and he was diagnosed on August 16, 2005 with Pleuralpulmonary Blastoma. He is 28 months old. He underwent a 4 hour surgery to remove the softball size tumor and is now receiving chemotherapy. Next week he will have an apheresis cath placed for stem cell harvesting. Anyway, I wanted you to know that someone in Indiana was praying for your son. We just returned from the hospital today and I have read your journal entries. From reading, I can tell that Zach and you are very strong people. I can also tell that you have put Zach's cancer in God's hands. I have done the same. When and if you have time, and I know you are busy, please look at Drew's website: www.caringbridge.org/visit/drewlabhart

Hi Zach and Family. Stephanie and I were at ACH for her physical thearapy treatment Friday, and we took a trip up to 3Gold to hopefully pay you a visit, but were told you were probably not up to visitors at that point in time. Stephanie will be back Wednesday afternoon for another therapy session, and maybe if you are still there, we can pop by and say hello. Hope things get going better for you.
Hate that you had to come back in again !

Hi Zachary. I am sorry to hear that you are back in the hospital. I guess maybe your friends there missed you too much and wanted some company for a little while. Anyway, I am glad they are looking a little closer as to why you are having the fluid build up. Maybe they will find the answer this time. I will keep you in my prayers as always. Love, Loretta

He had a spinal tap and didn't feel like hanging around. His spinal came back clean and clear! We hope to be at your concert in November. Ty wouldn't miss it.

Your progress brings great joy to me in the mix of saddness down in Southern LA due to the recent hurricane. God has been so faithful to show His light in the mix of the darkness.

You are in your own house, in your own bed... and hopefully, they ain' goin' put mo pison in yo bod. Can I get a hallalujah, can I get an amen? God bomb! (to quote the Reverend somethin' or other from Song of Susanna). Anyway, Jacki and I are checkin' out your site and we're stoked that you are cancer free and just dealing with the afterburn... and it sounds like it's worse than some of the chemo and radiation, too. So we're still praying for you and yours--hoping that you're still up for the fight. We love you and miss you and your family. Soli Deo Gloria.

Dear Zach,
I am Chase and his mama Carrie's, Aunt Libby and wanted to wish you and your family a Happy Labor Day! I'm a Nurse Practitioner and have been in the medical profession since about the time dirt was invented. I am thrilled that you are through with your treatments and I will continue praying for your on-going healing. I have a daughter who has a degree in biology/chemistry (TAMU Kingsville) and is a research scientist at MD Anderson at the Science Park in Smithville, TX (She's about to give me my 1st grandchild in 30 days!). She loves her work but knows she needs to advance her degrees if she is going to continue this work! I read that you like to collect snakes! Here is a story for you. I had my husband digging up daisies for some friends on Father's Day morning. He hollered and jerked back his hand to find two fang marks. While he went in to wash and apply ice, I found the cooperhead snake who had "shook his hand." He is a Geologist and spends lots of time out collecting specimens and is USUALLY obsessed with looking out for snakes. Can understand if I had been bitten because I just plow ahead, but HE is always so careful. Believe it or not, all they did in the emergency room is watch it swell for 4 hours and then send us home! No anti-venom was given beause of the bad side effects. He is much better, but the finger/hand still swells a little in the heat! Just a reminder for YOU to be careful on your collection trips! Nice to meet you, Zach! Love,

Aunt Libby <libbyposton@earthlink.net>

Hey Zach and Ramseys,
Just talked to Jaime last night (after the wind blew off the roof of one of the outbuildings at church!) and was so glad to hear of your improvement! I just logged onto this website today and although I see y'all almost every week, I was amazed at how much you have already endured and overcome. God has blessed your family with so much strength and faith, and He's not done yet! You are in our prayers every day. Hannah prays for your snakes also. Your reptiles have made an impression on our little ones!
Love from the Traugers

So very glad to hear that you are doing so much better. Chase and I have been checking up on you everyday, praying for your strength and healing. You have some real fans here on Gold. They all seem to think you have some kind of fighting attitude, lol, wonder what that is all about. Actually I think most on Gold, DO! I know Chase does. He wants things done his way and if they are not up to that then he will tell them how it is going to be. We will pray that you are completely off that respirator very soon, so you can tell em how it is. Keep up that fighting spirit. Chase really wants to meet you. He loves your pictures, and hears such wonderful things from all the nurses and techs.(Exp. Ms. Cecile, she seems to be one of your biggest fans). WEll hopefully we can go home today, so maybe you can come "home" to Gold and get our room. We would be more than glad to be kicked out of here. WEll God Bless and Take Care.

Hey Zach and Family, We continue to pray for Zach and your family. I didn't know until this afternoon that Zach was in PICU. I hope and pray by now that he is back on Gold by this time where he will be more comfortable. Today was Marissa's first day back to school, she was so nervous I thought she was going to be sick. We had to drive around the block twice before she could get out. Typical teenage girl for you. Jennifer of course was ready to jump out of the car before we even stopped. Again we will continue to pray for strength to get through this struggle.

thanks for the update! I am glad things are going better! Knowing Zach, he will do much better on Gold -- they better move him as soon as he is off the vent, or else take the phone out of his room -- he will be calling gold to come and get him! miss and love you all! so glad you are getting such good support right now! wish I was there to give some also...

Dear Zach,
It really stinks to have all that fluid in your body and, if you're feeling up to it, it probably also makes you a little cranky. That said, we are all praying for you and believe that God is holding you and yours in his great hands.

grace & peace,

I am praying for you, Zach. My daughter, Anna, just married a young man named Zach. They return from their honeymoon tomorrow night. This caught my attention. Your name was given to me through another young person with cancer. I will lift you up to the Father, but just know that if you believe in Jesus as your Saviour,you have no reason to live in fear of whatever happens to you. The Apostle Paul said, "That to live is Christ and to die is GAIN." I just wanted you to know that no matter what happens to you it is going to be wonderful. Much Love,

Zach,

However difficult understanding God is, one thing I know for certain: perfection manifests through love. I, too, have struggled with life-and-death health issues over the past two years. It is the love others demonstrated to me that made me experience God's perfection. Don't think for a moment I think myself perfect. Rather, God is being glorified through the love of friends and family toward me. Nothing could give me greater joy than experiencing, even for a moment, His glory.

My prayer for you is this: that you experience the glory of God through the intense and selfless love of family, friends, and your medical caregivers.

As I have said to Palmer during her journey, God will hold you close and give you all the strength you need to endure this Cancer. We are going thru this with a family member also. Her name is Joyce and I ask that you pray for her that she will come to know the Lord as you do and that she will feel his comforting arms. Stay strong and know that even a stranger as myself loves you and will pray daily for your recovery. Take care.

Dear Zach,
Am thinking of you this morning. I was reminded of the verse in James 1:12...Blessed is the man who endures temptation; for when he has been approved he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him. I know you are tempted to grow weary and give up. But Christ has PROMISED you something wonderful. Rev. 2:10 Be faithful...and I will give you the crown of life. This must be a special blessing because it is promised to those who must endure and it comes from the hand of our heavenly Father. Hang in there, guy. I'm praying God will give you mental peace as well as physical relief today. Your sister in Christ, Toni

They also remembered Eli... they said it had been too long since we came to see you and your family. They say true. Cry pardon. So we pray for you and yours and hope to see you all soon. Until then, you and your family continue to stand... to stand and be true.

Hi Zach. Stephanie passes on her hello to you. Hang in there big dude, and hopefully this will pass. Stephanie had a similar problem several months ago. She was in severe pain, stomach cramps, for almost three weeks. The had her on all kinds of pain medicine, and nothing seemed to help. Then one day, good old Kori walks in, sees Stephanie's stomach, and says she think it may be gas. Well..Kori put her on some over the counter stuff called Simithecone (not sure how it is spelled), and within two days of being on that, Steph was much better. All the pain medicine in the world wasn't helping, because it was a gas problem. So could just be something as simple as that. Congrats on finishing up that radiation. We were all so happy once Stephanie completed that phase !!

Zach... it has been long and long. I cry your pardon for not calling or emailing sooner. I'm having this "I don't know what to say" problem. Say sorry. So I say sorry. I miss you and your family. I miss your calls at various times throughout the year. I should make some myself.
I think about you often, and though I pray less than I should, I pray for you sometimes, too. God is the holder and healer of man and his life and soul... you know that and cling to that even still, and I commend your faith. Amen. May you come into long days and pleasant nights very soon.

Zach,
We have been kept abreast of your life and illness faithfully by your brother and your family through emails; and all along we have been praying that the Lord would be glorified in your illness and that you would be fully restored. Sometimes there are more restorations than we might think, I know He holds you in the palm of His hand. Sorry to hear of your latest setback and the disappointment in this unexpected turn. God is fully able to restore. May it be so.

Dear Zack, I don't know you in person but I'll tell you that I could not care any more deeply for you if I did. You are going through the valley for sure and I wish I could in some way help you. All I am able to do is to ask our Father to help you, bless you, give you strenghth, support you physically, mentally, and spiritually. He will be your high tower, your help in times of stress, your fortress, your hiding place. God love you. I sure do.

HI Zach, I pray that you are feeling good today. You are often in my thoughts and prayers. I have been checking your website to see how you and your family are doing. Marissa went to her first basketball practice that she could participate in yesterday. She said it felt good but she could definately tell that she was out of shape. I know that it seems a long way off from recovery but it won't be long Zach until you are out there hunting snakes again. YUK!!! Tell Becki Hi for me.

Hi Zach, How are you doing?I have a book by Charles Capps called "God's Creative Power for Healing" and I would like to share some of it from time to time. It is such an encourager. Proverbs 4:20-22 "My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. Let them not depart from thine eyes;keep them in the midst of thine heart. For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh." I'm glad you and your dad got out and did some fun things while he was there with you. Wish I was close and could be a part of the concert in Nov. Will be there in prayer. Give your mom love from all the people who pray for you all. Love Grammy Malmay

Good Morning Biology Major, I have kidded you about snakes but this morning my devotional was centered around I Timothy 4:4,"For everything God has created is good, and nothing is tobe thrown away or refused if it is received with thanksgiving."

Zack:
Hope all is well today. The road to recovery is long and and has so many highs and lows, but then one day, the clouds part, the sun comes through and life returns to what it once was. I never would have believed that until seeing it happen for Abby. If I didn't see her fuzzy little head I can honestly tell you it would seem as if the past year was a dream/nightmare and that it never actually happened. You'll see it too and looking back, you won't believe what you endured to get there.
Love and prayers,

Dear Friend Zach, I think about when I was a little girl and my momma would rock me in her big chair when I needed comfort. I am 66 now and still remember the feeling of comfort. It makes me think about Jesus holding us and comforting us because he loves us so much. God bless you and your family. Wish I could help you all and comfort you.
Love to a special young man of God.

Abby is doing really well and fuzzy hair is starting to appear on her head. She started playing basketball again, and she is getting stronger each day. Joanie, Nick and Abby are all in Seattle visiting family and friends. I will be taking the kids to Gonzaga basketball camp in about a week. We will pick you up a ZAG shirt while we are in Spokane.

We look forward to seeing you soon. Thanks again for your friendship and inspiration. Your faith, courage and attitude is so awesome.

Best Wishes Always,

Zach
I am probably about the same age as you, as I am a senior at Bowling Green State University in Bowling Green, OH. You touch me with your story because you are probably the same age, and cancer can happen to anyone. You can take on this battle and fight right through it. Just think about getting through graduation, your wedding, those moments where you are just acting funny with your friends.
I heard of you from Abby Grant's website. I just had the opprotunity to spend a weekend with the Grant family for a wedding. From reading your webpage I noticed that you have the same spirit and strength that Abby shows! You are in my prays, and I promise I will ask God to GRANT YOU STRENGTH just like I did for Abby. Keep being strong and fight for what you want.

It was good to here that things are going better and good to hear that you are feeling better too. I will keep you in my prayers as you move into this next phase of treatment. Oh, I like the new pictures. I think you must have everyone at the hospital wrapped around your finger. God bless and keep you.

Zach, I discovered your website through a special neighbor of mine, Abby Grant. As you know, she is quite an incredible little girl and has taught most of us adults about courage. You also know the meaning of courage based on reading your history. I just wanted to let you know my friends and I will pray for you and your family as you continue your journey. When my husband was 19 and in college at Iowa State University, he was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Disease. He is now a wonderful father and husband, with a successful career at Wal-Mart. Keep this and other stories of hope in your mind and remember that people that you don't even know are praying for you!

Zach, we are wishing you and your family the best. As of May 18th, Stephanie is now off treatment. She will come in around 1:00 p.m. the next couple of Wednesdays to get her weight checked, so chances of bumping into you in clinic from now on are pretty slim. If possible,we will drop by to see you whenever we are there for anything. Keep that positive attitude !!!

Hi Zach, I just heard about your illness through Palmer Richardson's website. Her mom's dad used to preach for us in Springfield MO and I knew her mom, Lori, when she was 'growing up'. Rom 8:28 caught my eye as it is our favorite scripture and I know God is working for good in your life. I pray that your next phase of treatment will go smoothly and God will continue to comfort you and your family.

Hi Zach,
I read about you on Abby Grant's Website - she's my cousin. Sounds like things haven't been easy for you. I am sorry to hear that. Thank you for helping make Abby's treatments more bearable. She is a blessing in our lives, just as I'm sure you are in hers.
Stay strong, continue your fight and know that there are people thinking about you each day that you don't even know.
I will be sending you my thoughts and prayers in hopes that you will be in remission someday and will be able to finish your degree in biology. I graduated in Health and Human Performance and spent much time in my biology classes studying and enjoying every moment of my time in AND out of class!
Take care of yourself, keep smiling and remember to Make it a Great Day!

Hi Zach,
I saw your picture on Abby Grant's website, Abby is a special girl. I remember Abby telling me about you, you are the guy with the great sense of humor! You have the same sparkle in your eyes that she has. I am praying for your full recovery and the time that you will return to school to finish up your biology degree. I was a microbiology major back in the day. It sounds like the doctors made good progress with your recent surgery. I am sorry about the pain that you have been having. It is good that your parents are there to be your advocate with the hospital team in getting your pain medications, that is so important. Take Care :) Julie K.

Hi Zach, I did not know that you had a website until today. You may not remember me I am Marissa's mom Terri. We visted some at the hospital with you and especially with your parents. The last time we spoke you were still in the hospital after your surgery. I was so excited to read that you had gone home. We have been praying for you and your family. Marissa has one more pre-algebra test to finish school for the year. One of her teachers has been taking her golfing. The first time she forgot to wear sunscreen on her still slightly bald head and got sunburned, now she is pealing. That is a strange sight. She will go to meet her new basketball coach for next year tomorrow. She is very nervous. I was not surprised to read of your faith in God. Your attitude has been about the same as Marissa's. She said I don't know why God chose me for this, but I am just glad that it was not someone else. We will continue to pray for you and now that we know about your website we can stay informed. As one of Marissa's Drs. told her "Keep the Faith".

Hi Zach..
I am Shelby Clinton's mom..I saw your page by looking at someone else's..Anyway, good to hear that you are improving..You have been through a lot but with prayer, God will continue to bless you. He has done wonders for Shelby. Shelby is doing great. He is gaining weight and feeling better and better each day. We have been so blessed and I know that you will too. Don't give the nurses too hard of a time. Shelby got a kick out of you in the hospital.
We are just coming every 4 weeks to get his port flushed and then every 3 months for an MRI. Please keep Shelby in your prayers that his cancer will not return.
His webpage is www.caringbridge.org/ar/shelby. Check it out sometime.

Tell all the nurses on 3-Gold that we said Hi.

Our Prayers are with you.

Hi Zach! Like alot of others I learned of your struggle through Palmer. I want you to know that I am praying for you and your family. My daughter has been a patient at ACH for 3 years tomorrow. When she was 13 months she was diagnosed with dilated Cardiomyopathy which almost always results in a heart transplant. Sydnee is living proof of God's healing power. She just turned 4 and is a bundle of energy (without a transplant!). You are at a wonderful hospital surrounded by people who truly care about you.
Zach, I will pray for you as I continue to pray for Palmer.

hi zach! just found out this morning from Palmer that you have had a website and I did not know about it! I have read back through all of the updates and now wanted to leave you a message! I know the last few weeks have been horrible, but keep the big picture in sight -- you are so special, not only to your family, but to all of us on gold -- especially the other patients -- they all adore you -- as does all the staff. praying for you often....

PS the people in the pharmacy are still talking about you calling the pharmacy looking for your pain meds. I have had to swear up and down that I did not give you the number! ha-ha

Hey Zach and family. I just found out about the website. I wish you were feeling better- it has been a slow and painful recovery for you and has been difficult to watch- so I only can imagine the way you and your family are feeling. You mean so much to us- as does your family. I am here as you all need me- praying for your recovery and cure.

Hi Zach!
My brother is a senior Biology major at OSU in Stillwater, OK. When I read about the things you like to do, I could've been reading about my brother. I bet you guys would've been great friends if your paths had ever crossed. Who knows - maybe they will someday since you're both in the same field.
I am one of the numerous people who read about you on Palmer Richardson's website. While I don't know Palmer personally, her grandfather is the preacher at the Church of Christ I attend in Dallas, TX so I am always checking her website and she is constantly in my prayers. I want you to know I will be praying for you by name as well.

we have been asked to give special prayer for you from the Richardson's. We have been asking God to protect and heal Palmer, but we also have asked him to watch over all of you at ACH. Your courage and determination is humbling to those of us with good health. God has a purpose in all he does. We will pray for you by name and give glory to our heavenly Father for his work thru you, Palmer and all the rest of ACH patients. Be strong, keep your faith and hug your parents as they need your strength. I will keep in touch thru you website and thanks for allowing us to get to know you. GOD IS GOOD.

Zach,
Know that we (and our church) are praying for your recovery from surgery. Mom and Dad tell me that you were joking around last time they saw you. It's good to know that you're still Wacky Zachy despite all the hardship. We're making a trip to Arkansas in the end of May. I hope we'll be able to see you (hopefully in Doddridge, not LR).

O God, the strength of the weak and the comfort of sufferers: Mercifully accept our prayers, and grant to your servant Zachary the help of your power, that his sickness may be turned into health, and our sorrow into joy; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

Love,

Hi Zachary,

I am a friend of your Aunt Rose here in Virginia Beach.

You are about the same age as my son Michael. I can't bring myself to call him "Mike" like his friends do, so I hope it's okay if I call you by YOUR full name! It's a name that is so special. It's the anglicized version of the Hebrew Zechariah, the father of John the Baptist! And it means "remembered by the Lord" or "YAHWEH remembers." I know HE knows just where you are and what you are going through, and I know He must smile with particular joy when He observes the way you reach out to other kids at the hospital!

I'm a cancer patient also...surgery, chemo and radiation are now over, but still on a couple of drugs with their side effects and still have frequent checkups and screenings. I know this is not my whole life, though. My REAL life is full of all those little PRESENT and precious moments I have I have when I feel good. Sometimes I just catch my breath with the beauty of His creations, sometimes I just have a peace sensing His awesome love for me. How about you?

I look forward to meeting you someday, just hang in there Zack, You are the Best!!!!

Zach: The body of believers at Salem Reformed Church lift you up continuously in prayer to our Soveriegn God. It sounds like God is using you in so many ways to help others there in the hospital. May you always glorify Him. Remember He is The Potter and we are the clay. Continue to use your vessel for Him. Reading from 2nd Timothy today.

Aloha, I'm glad to hear that things are going better with the pain control and the surgery went well. We are thinking about how to fix a new box for You. First we need a new box! Maybe we can find some things for your small friends to pop out of it. I hope things keep getting better. Lots of Aloha, Aunt Shery and family.

Hey ZR,
You know I call you that because Jeff does. One thing for sure, you have lifted my spirits much more than I have yours. You have entertained me with your(pain management) personality. I am looking forward to the days where I can sit down with your children and tell them stories about the time their daddy was not quiet himself but funny. I am looking forward to sitting down with your children and your mom and dad reflecting upon God's goodness and mercy. May God continue to bless you and all those that come in contact with you and your family. ZR, don't give the nurses to much of hard time. I love you very much and you are always in our prayers

Hey, Zach! Lori and I keep you in our prayers. I ran into your mom at Walmart the other night and got this website. Last year when I found out about the cancer, I immediately started requesting prayer for you and your family at our chruch (Faith Assembly of God). We have all been praying for you. And just reading the results of your recent surgery on Wednesday, the power of prayer is awesome. We hope you are feeling better now. You are an inspiration to us. I guess you know Travis is married now. He married is high school sweetheart. They had dated almost 7 years. She is a wonderful Christian girl. Lori is working toward her chemistry degree at SAU and will graduate next May. She plans to further that in either Pharmacy or Dentistry, or something along those lines. Anway, enough about us. We do pray for you and we all know that "God's grace is sufficient". There is NOTHING too big for Him. We will keep in touch.

Hey Zach and family! I read about the surgery, that's GREAT!!! I was praying all day about it. It's hard after surgery to deal with pain sometimes, sorry you had to go through it. Hopefully recovery will go well. You and your family are always in my prayers, if you're there when we come up next (May 4th I believe) we'll visit you. Good luck with everything, I'm sure we will stay in touch.

This is a great idea. You are an inspiriation to many and I want you to know that you are constantly in our prayers.

I spent a couple of hours with your breaux last night. He was delivering pythons to me for a short snake-sitting stint.

Next time you see him ask him about water in the gas tank!

Keep the Faith brother. God is at work.

Hey Zach! We watched home movies (taken in Avery) a few months ago where my 5 yr. old John (now 23) said "... and ouw fwiends Zachawy and Caleb ..." That was pretty fun! :)

Hi Zach!
We are so happy that you have a website so we can keep up to date with your progress. We wish you a very speedy recovery from your hospital stay ~ we are definitely going to try to help get some weight on you the next time we see you at Children's. I think Krispy Kremes are in order don't you? Abby is on the tail end of her antibiotic treatment and feeling much better. She has her labs on Monday, and we will find out if she will be admitted Thursday for cycle #10.
We pray for you and your family continually. Hopefully our paths will cross again soon, and we look forward to your journal entry saying that you are feeling better and heading home.

Psalm 139:

1 O LORD , you have searched me
and you know me.
2 You know when I sit and when I rise;
you perceive my thoughts from afar.
3 You discern my going out and my lying down;
you are familiar with all my ways.
4 Before a word is on my tongue
you know it completely, O LORD .

5 You hem me in-behind and before;
you have laid your hand upon me.
6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
too lofty for me to attain.

7 Where can I go from your Spirit?
Where can I flee from your presence?
8 If I go up to the heavens, you are there;
if I make my bed in the depths, you are there.
9 If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
if I settle on the far side of the sea,
10 even there your hand will guide me,
your right hand will hold me fast.

11 If I say, "Surely the darkness will hide me
and the light become night around me,"
12 even the darkness will not be dark to you;
the night will shine like the day,
for darkness is as light to you.

13 For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother's womb.
14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
15 My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place.
When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,
16 your eyes saw my unformed body.
All the days ordained for me
were written in your book
before one of them came to be.

17 How precious to me are your thoughts, O God!
How vast is the sum of them!
18 Were I to count them,
they would outnumber the grains of sand.
When I awake,
I am still with you……….


Loretta
Baton Rouge, LA - Thursday, November 18, 2004 7:59 AM CST
