Dear Karen and family,

I am so late coming by this year to wish you a Happy Countdown to Jesus birthday! Please know that you remain in my prayers always, even on the days when I don’t get to let you know. I read the updates often and pray daily for your needs. I was hoping to read an update on how Jen was feeling. Karen I am so sorry for my lack of letting you know I AM here! I appreciate all of your care and support and love to see you have been by to visit Lisa's site. God Bless you! Praying fervently for the cookbook fundraiser...nothing is too big with God and He KNOWS your needs! I praise Him for what He is about to do once again for your family!!!!

Asking God to give you a blissful Christmas, with family and loved ones all around. MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Love and Blessings,

Judy and Lisa

Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at Angel_Wings

Thank You, God, for everything ...
The big things and the small,
For "every good gift comes from God" ...
The Giver of them all.

And all too often we accept
Without any thanks or praise,
The gifts You send as blessings
Each day in many ways.

And so at this Thanksgiving time,
We offer up a prayer;
To thank You, God, for giving us
A lot more than our share.

First, thank You for the little things
That often come our way;
The things we take for granted
And don't mention when we pray.

The unexpected courtesy,
The thoughtful, kindly deed,
A hand reached out to help us ...
In the time of sudden need.

Oh, make us more award, dear God,
Of little daily graces,
That come to us with "sweet surprise,"
From never-dreamed-of places.

Then, thank You for the "miracles"
We are much too blind to see,
And give us new awareness
Of our many gifts from Thee.

And help us to remember
That the "key" to "life" and "living,"
Is to make each prayer a "prayer of thanks,"
And every day THANKSGIVING.

~ Helen Steiner Rice ~

SO relieved to read an update, I have been concerned with the rains and floods going on so near you! Jen, Praying your lab levels get back to where they need to be, I know that this is a balancing act (Like Lisa's coumadin). Jon sending excellent thoughts your way that the job works out! Are you still playing guitar? It is such a stress reliever for Rachel! IV iron...so much fun. Give it time to help Karen, it can be quite stressful on your system as it builds up, how well we know with David. It DOES eventually help perk him up though. I am SO thrilled to see the job is going well. That is definitley answered prayer an MANY fronts! Hang in there!

Dear Karen,

God bless your HUGE, loving heart! Rachel was thrilled with her birthday card, You are so clever and thoughtful!
She thought it was great you designed and made it yourself! I do hope the doctors can do the surgery so you can feel better, you deserve that! Of course, Jon deserves his test to be done as well. It is so disenheartening to have to choose what to pay for and what gets forgotten, how well I know that feeling.

We didn't have this option when we were paying out $1,200 COBRA payments for 6 months; however, does Obama's stimulus package help Jen at all? I know if we had to pay NOW, it would be 400 vs the 1,200. Still terrible, but far more reasonable! That might be something to look into, I have the link on Lisa's site SOMEWHERE in the journal histrory (Sorry I can't look it up, I only have a minute before I have to get the children up).

Praying EVERYONE gets a job and KEEPS their jobs who need one...been there done that this year too, as you know...I just have to BELIEVE it will work out for you all. I hope some of my tips you asked me for helped....

Thank you for always being there with a surprise! PLEASE know I am praying fervently for all of your needs and for your sanity as you yet again endure all you have to on a daily basis!

Love and Blessings,
Judy and Lisa

A Day Of Wonders
by John van de Laar

The darkness may try to hide it, God,
but this is truly Good Friday;
a day of endless miracle, of incredible wonder.
That you would welcome the beam to your shoulders,
and beckon the nails to your flesh,
to crucify darkness in your own fragmented body.
That you would hold the gaze of hatred,
look boldly in the face of evil
and speak the soft words of forgiveness.
That you would embrace in your paralysed arms
your hardened companion in death,
and all who would seek comfort in you.
Promising a world made new,
and an eternity brought into the present moment.
Yes, absolutely a day of wonders and miracles
and we are in awe before its beauty.
Amen.






Praying for your family as we remember the sacrifices God and Jesus made to give us eternal life. May you feel His presence in your life always!

Karen, Praying your weekend is FULL of family!

Before I read your update, my attention was diverted by the pictures of Jen and Jon. They look amazing, and it made me smile.

I know the life of a liver kid is expensive and overwhelming. We were dealing with it for awhile.
And then the money problems were gone, and so was my daughter.

I do remember the stress of it, and I don't want to minimize yours......but just like you are envious of those who got a liver and stayed well, I envy those who got a second chance at all. I envy those who say goodnight to their kids at night.
I would give everything I have to have another year, a few more months even.

Try not to let the appointments or the cost get you down. Or even the worry. God does not want us to worry....He tells us quite plainly it doesn't help anyway.
Just love them. Have fun with them. Blow off your co-pay and take them to lunch. It's only money.
I have an even better idea. Come visit us for a week! Your lodging and meals will be free. We can even get labs with no dr co pay attached....and we will all just relax for a week. Sound good??

Karen,

I am so, right there with you, even though we just have Olivia. We have been in the hospital every month except December. In December I begged to do everything at home. And we are almost 9 yeas out from transplant. I too get down sometimes with those that get a liver and go on in life. Thank you for sharing your heart. Because I could just duplicate it and sign my name to it :)

We did get GT help for the first three months of his Cobra. And I had the money set aside for this payment but I thought surely it could not be more than $1300. I was so wrong, it is going to be $2600. But, out of the blue, Helping Hands sent me their monthly report and I was shocked. There is enough in there to cover it. YEAH!

Now, have you checked into the HIPP program? They reimburse your payments but it is a mess. When GT paid our payments for us, because they did not send "us" a check, we were rejected out of the program and have to reapply...I know God always provides...but, the hoops sometimes are just so tiring. :)

You guys are on my prayer list!

While Fiona has been going through transplant evlaution that is something this new center told us, that many transplant receipents get diabetes. Sorry that Jen has to add another problem to her list. I know she has been doing better and I hope this won't slow her down. She is a miracle and doesn't need more obstacles in her way.

Hi! Though I don't know Jen or Jon I came across them while doing a search for information for my father. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. May miracles continue to happen for both of you! My father had a heart transplant nearly 19 years ago and has done well with the exception of the side effects from the cyclosporin. Look to the Lord for your strength. Every trial we face is for our growth.

HOW TO OBSERVE THANKSGIVING.

Count your blessings instead of your crosses;
Count your gains instead of your losses.
Count your joys instead of your woes;
Count your friends instead of your foes.
Count your smiles instead of your tears;
Count your courage instead of your fears.
Count your full years instead of your lean;
Count your kind deeds instead of your mean.
Count your health instead of your wealth;
Count on God instead of yourself.

Stopped in to check on things and assumed things were better....so now that I know, I will be praying. Just a thought, but you know I am the Bile Duct Queen, take a look at her Alkline Phosphate numbers too...if that number is going up as well, it might explain some things. It can be an indicator as well if you have a bile duct problem or not. But if it is holding out in normal range, you may be in a good place and it is just a viral thing that is making her ggt off....

Praying for you;....In His Grip

Karen, I joined liverfamilies and read your update. I then went to your website. Let me start by saying WOW! You are an amazing mother. Your strength and faith in our Father above is awesome! I know that it is Him that is getting your through each day. Many times people ask why me, or blame God. You have been through SO much with your two beautiful children and you keep your faith and praise God for the blessings he has bestowed! That is great! I have a 6 month old daughter with biliary atresia and I have found that God is the only way to make it each day. Without his love and guidance there is no way I would be able to function. I just wanted to let you know you are an inspiration to me! I wish you and your family the very best and know I will keep your family in my prayers!

The children are tucked safely in bed and thought I would take the opportunity to let you know that I am still here and still praying, in spite of the events of the past two weeks. I check in as often as I can, I am just not always able to leave a message. More time in the car just gives me more time to pray though!

I have been so sorry to read about Jen and her troubles with school. It can be quite overwhelming to learn HOW to study for all of this medical stuff, it is so foreign. It DOES get easier! Jon, I haope you are well, I haven't forgotten my Number 1 and pray for that all of the time!!!!

Asking God to give you a BEAUTIFUL week full of love!

This may not help Jen but when I started school I wanted to go to nursing school. Like Jen, once I started getting into it I thought I could not handle it. I could not have been more wrong. With all of Olivi's stuff, I have been able to handle it and have compassion doing it. Jen has a lot of compassion and that will make her great at what she does. I am ptaying that she will be able to push through because we need more people in the field with a big heart.

Always in my prayers,

Your prayers, support and GB messages mean the world to us...THANK YOU!!!! The photos were breathtaking/awesome (from the last updates) I WAS reading, just no time to encourage, I am so sorry! I am extra pleased to know the pleurisy is improving it is incredibly painful Poor Jen, she deserves to feel well to enjoy this new adventure in life! As for Mr. Jon, he will always have my heart....I can SO relate to doing the school work wherever you land! (We use Lifepacs for some of our subjects too).

I am so glad I dropped by. The kids had been doing so well lately, I have been lax in checking in. Glad I did though. I will be praying for Jen. I do know how you guys feel about putting off the labs until you have too. So I will pray that whatever it is will heal before those labs. She has been doing so well for some time now. No set backs would be great, maybe not reallistic, but great.

Please let us know about Jon as soon as you can. The Kings will be praying for you guys.

I wish you had the automatic updates on the older sites...but I will check back in!

How WONDERFUL Jen, that you are FINALLY able to follow your dream and head towards the career path and life you have worked so hard for! Prayer is so powerful and it is evident when you see all that He has done for the entire family (I haven't forgotten my NUMBER ONE, Jon!!)

May you have all of your hearts desires, it is what God wants for us all. How happy I am to be part of your lives, to see so many prayers being answered!

Yes, I KNOW I am early; but, I will not have access to a computer at the appropriate time and this Patriotic American had to send you wishes on this special occasion coming up!

As you know, we are leaving Friday to take Christian to High Point and Pete to Johns Hopkins, so this may be my last GB entry before our journey. With how busy this summer has been, I wanted to make sure you knew we are thinking of you!

God, open my eyes so I may see
And feel Your presence close to me ...
Give me strength for my stumbling feet
As I battle the crowd on life's busy street,
And widen the vision of my unseeing eyes
So in passing faces I'll recognize
Not just a stranger, unloved and unknown,
But a friend with a heart that is much like my own ...
Give me perception to make me aware
That scattered profusely on life's thoroughfare
Are the best gifts of God that we daily pass by
As we look at the world with an unseeing eye.

I don't expect to get the tax stimulus check (we didn't qualify last time either). We pay taxes, but have so many medical bills, it cancels everything out. In fact we always have more deductions that we don't get to take. I am SO HAPPY to read you will get yours this year!! That is aweosme news and couldn't come at a more needed time, I know!

Hymn to a Good Wife

10 A wife of noble character who can find?
She is worth far more than rubies.

11 Her husband has full confidence in her
and lacks nothing of value.

12 She brings him good, not harm,
all the days of her life.

13 She selects wool and flax
and works with eager hands.

14 She is like the merchant ships,
bringing her food from afar.

15 She gets up while it is still dark;
she provides food for her family
and portions for her servant girls.

16 She considers a field and buys it;
out of her earnings she plants a vineyard.

17 She sets about her work vigorously;
her arms are strong for her tasks.

18 She sees that her trading is profitable,
and her lamp does not go out at night.

19 In her hand she holds the distaff
and grasps the spindle with her fingers.

20 She opens her arms to the poor
and extends her hands to the needy.

21 When it snows, she has no fear for her household;
for all of them are clothed in scarlet.

22 She makes coverings for her bed;
she is clothed in fine linen and purple.

23 Her husband is respected at the city gate,
where he takes his seat among the elders of the land.

24 She makes linen garments and sells them,
and supplies the merchants with sashes.

25 She is clothed with strength and dignity;
she can laugh at the days to come.

26 She speaks with wisdom,
and faithful instruction is on her tongue.

27 She watches over the affairs of her household
and does not eat the bread of idleness.

28 Her children arise and call her blessed;
her husband also, and he praises her:

29 "Many women do noble things,
but you surpass them all."

30 Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting;
but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised.

31 Give her the reward she has earned,
and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.

~Proverbs 31:10-31 (NIV)

Dear Karen, Jen and Jon

I do hope you will forgive my lack of signing in lately, it has not been for lack of reading about you all, nor for many prayers being offered up for you! I just can't seem to keep up on days the children have school. I do know you realize that and yet, I want you to have a message from me much more often than I have been able to lately!

I do pray so hard that ALL of the appointments went well! If only people could put themselves in our shoes for just a day, maybe they would understand better how their lack of doing their jobs impact those of us with so many health needs to arrange!

Congratulations Jen!! I am happy for you and proud of you!!

Praying that you are all having a lovely weekend and that EVERYONE is feeling well!!

Much Love and many Blessings,
Judy and Lisa

Karen,

I am like you at times I wonder if I should keep Ashley website/blog going. Noone every leaves a message, well maybe two people have. I thought giving the people an opportunity to sign up for automatic email updates will intice people to sign her blog and say Hi I was here and I care about you Ashley.

Despite the lack of traffic on Ashley's website/blog, I will keep it going...for me and for the chosen few who decide to check in every now and again.

Karen, what I am trying to see is keep it the journal going, call it therapy.

God's Blessings,

Dear Karen,

I for one LOVE to come by and visit and see what is going on. I know how discouraging it is to type day after day, week after week and feel as if no one is looking or leaving any encouragement! We would go a month without anyone signing the GB and then I started finding some other CB sites and signing their GB and they started to follow and pray for Lisa! It was awesome to click on her GB and see someone had let me know they had been by to hi and let me know they were praying!

I think until you have sick children, people don't realize what an encouragement it is to hear a kind word on a DAILY basis! No matter HOW many times they may have signed in before!

Please Know I am always praying, it is sometimes difficult to always let you know, but I DO try!!

Hugs, Prayers, Love and Blessings,

Easter Reflections
by : Helen Steiner Rice,
With OUR EYES we see
the beauty of Easter
as the earch awakens once more...
With OUR EARS we hear
the birds sing sweetly
to tell us Spring again is here...
With OUR HANDS we pick
the golden daffodils
and the fragrant hyacinths...
But only with OUR HEARTS
can we feel the MIRACLE of GOD'S LOVE
which redeems all men...
And only with OUR SOUL
can we make our 'pilgrimage to God'
and inherit His Easter Gift of ETERNAL LIFE.
I pray for a blessed Easter for your family

Easter Joy

Jesus came to earth,
To show us how to live,
How to put others first,
How to love and how to give.

Then He set about His work,
That God sent Him to do;
He took our punishment on Himself;
He made us clean and new.

He could have saved Himself,
Calling angels from above,
But He chose to pay our price for sin;
He paid it out of love.

Our Lord died on Good Friday,
But the cross did not destroy
His resurrection on Easter morn
That fills our hearts with joy.

Now we know our earthly death,
Like His, is just a rest.
We'll be forever with Him
In heaven, where life is best.

So we live our lives for Jesus,
Think of Him in all we do.
Thank you Savior; Thank you Lord.
Help us love like you!

By Joanna Fuchs

May you feel God's eternal Blessings on this beautiful and Holy Day!

Praise God for good labs for Jon and that Jen is FINALLY going to be allowed to attend her program choice! I am scrambling to help Chrisitan to find money for school as you know, all I can suggest is that she do as he is doing and write LOTS of essays. Let me know if you want me to send you some scholarship websites! We don't even qualify for the Tax incentive except for 300 dollars because we pay so much in medical bills it cancels out our tax....Many people don't understand that, but it is true.

Praying for ONLY good news as we help our childrne in ALL their endeavors!

Dear Karen

I just had to let you know that although I can't sign in very much I am ALWAYS praying for you my precious friends! I got spoiled at Christmas when I could sign in daily and say hello! I miss that!

I was eager to read an update as always. Praying Jon is ALL better and that You and Jen feel MUCH BETTER very soon! This stuff seems to linger for weeks! Asking God to continue to give you mercy and get those nasty germs FAR away from your house!!

Thanks for sharing such intimate pictures. I know from experience you can almost smell the room when you look at those pictures. I can't believe how upside down our life has been since September but seeing those pictures reminds me of how faithful God is to us and our kids.

Jen, you were beautiful then as you are now. Loved your long hair, that must have been hard being confined to the bed. Praying you NEVER have to endure another transplant!

Jon, also praying you are feeling more like yourself.

I hope you all had a Blessed, Joyous Christmas!

Merry Christmas you guys! We are thinking of you daily and praying for you too! I pray that you will be blessed as you attend services this Christmas with the joy and peace that comes from knowing our Savior, the reason for this season. Know that no matter the circumstance "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever!" In Him we can rely, rest and trust! My fav. verses are

Lamentations 3: 21-25.
"Yet this I call to mind
and therefore I have hope:
Because of the LORD's great love
we are not consumed,
for his compassions never fail.
They are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness.
I say to myself, "the LORD is my portion;
therefore I will wait for him."
The LORD is good to those whose
hope is in him,
to the one who seeks him;

My prayer for you all is that God will reveal himself to be your portion each morning. That you will awake renewed in strength. That God will be your provider in every way....health, peace, financial, hope and strength. We are praying for you. We have the promise that when 2 or 3 agree on any one thing in prayer our Father God will do it. We believe this and we are agreeing in prayer for you Mark, Karen, Jen and Jon!
Merry Christmas!

How about a spaghetti dinner??? We had a blast doing ours years ago. And a local bread place donated ALL the breadsticks! You could host it at your church and charge $5.oo a plate. It is a fun time, great for scrapbooking and always a nice benefit! Also adding drawings for donated prizes can boost the fundraising!

We are praying for you, so glad he is HOME and just can't wait for 2008 for the best year yet for your family.

Place your HOPES and GOD.. and don't forget to TRUST HIM, He Loves you so much

Oh Precious Jon! We are praising God with you that you are better, receiving the help needed and especially that you are back home! We went out Christmas shopping last night when Matt got off work. We got a treat for you! I'll be sending it out tomorrow! So, keep your eye spied on the mailman's delivery! Congratulations on having the patience needed throughout this year to get the treatment needed at the time you needed it. You are a very strong young man. I know it's hard to be you sometimes. But, that is when God is our strength. Continue to trust him. Lean on that very strong family that God has given you. Know that there are friends who have you in our hearts and prayers daily. Welcome home Jon! I have tears now saying that. I'm so thankful that you are better and home!

I will not tell you not to worry (I might as well say stop breathing)!

I am asking God to send His Grace to you as you wait for the following labs. Praying you have peace in this joyful season and feel Him wrapping His arms all around you as you wait (I have a picture I posted this week on Lisa's website of God hugging Lisa, I promise you can actually see it)!

If you told Jon the news already I hope he took it well.

Always lifting you up!

Love and Blessings,

Karen,
I am thinking about you and Jon. I see the numbers, and maybe a biopsy would be good. Has he had one before? Try to live for today, and not worry so much. (hard, I know) Sometimes the numbers do not tell it all. Don't worry so much about the next lab tests. Do what you can and know what you can't do. Worrying comes naturally, but really does not help anything.
Be positive! Say prayers.

Rachel played her Uncle's guitar while we were in Maryland and I had to smile as I thought of you having YOUR wish come true!

Jen, You are not forgotten and wondered how you are feeling and if you are still taking classes. My prayers are always with you as well!

How I am praying you are all well! I love your Thanksgiving Poem, how wonderful and well thought out! Praying for John's liver as well and for ALL your needs, spoken and not. I have to tell you how excited I was last week to read about the wish trip to pick out the guitar...HOW AWESOME! Jon certainly deserved that and more! I am so happy for him and only wish ya'll were closer so he and Rachel could play their music together. She is actually quite good and so devoted to learning, just as I am know Jon is. It gets into them and they have to play!!

We will be away for a few days visiting Pete's family in Maryland; however, I couldn't leave without wishing you a wonderful Thanksgiving. Sending LOTS of LOVE your way.
May you feel God's Love and His Blessings in all ways! If you are surrounded by people who love you, then you are Blessed!

Happy Thanksgiving!!!!

I have been keeping up with everyone even though I haven't signed in. I am delighted Jon is off the medication and will be so happy when the nasty effects are COMPLETELY gone. Praying for Jen's colonoscopy to be event free and for you to have the stamina to get her there. Praying a LOT for you, because you are the glue holding everybody together and you have not been at your best physically or emotionally I know and that causes lots of wear on your heart!

Always keeping you close in prayer!

I'm so bummed that the treatments have been so tough on Jon (and family!) I sure wish there was an alternative. Glad he like the package from Alaska- we had fun picking it out. Marek is telling me what to type "Tell Jon I hope he feels better. Trains and freight cars make me feel better". OK, just remember he is 4 and train nut so he thinks trains make everyone feel better :-). Wish it was that easy. Hugs and prayers from us to you! We will be praying that Jon's healing continues without the medicines and that Jon will be healthy.

As a side note, we use to live in GA too. It was a long time ago, before we had kids but we lived in Marietta and I worked in Alpharetta. Seems like it was a different life now that I have 3 kids and live thousands a miles away but I enjoyed my time there.

The pictures are PRICELESS! How wonderful to have such great friends to support Jon in the dark days, it means the world I know! David would have loved that model as well, Mustangs are his dream cars!

If Rachel was closer she would LOVE to play guitars with him as well. She loves the old rock and roll tunes from when we were younger, so I could listen to her all day.

How Blessed to read of some happy cheer being sent your way, you ALL deserve that.

Harry Potter is a favorite of all of ours as well, but I would have to pass on the Jelly Beans flavors, yuck!

Praying for you all and a special Hello to Princess Jen (You are NEVER to old to be a Princess)!!

Hi! Thanks for signing Isaac's guestbook. Isaac got the Homework kills trees shirt at Kohl's. They had a bunch of shirts with funny sayings.
Isaac likes getting mail too. I am still amazed how much a little note can brighten his day.

Good Morning DEAR Friends

I wanted to check in and see if there was any better news....I have been coming by to see how things have been progressing at your house and I keep praying for God to put these evil side effects at bay so that sweet Jon can continue the end of treatment. I can only imagine how this is tearing you all up in side!

Praying God gives you the peace and grace you deserve and that you feel so many lifting you up!

7 Weeks left! I can't believe it...there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Now that I know when, can you send me your address again. My computer not only crashed, it crashed and burned and it has taken over a month to get back up but I lost everything and that was your address as well. I have to contribute to the big day!

Love to you and we are praying

Dear Karen,

I haven't signed in for far too long; however, that doesn't mean I haven't been praying and reading! Forgive me for my absence. I can't believe how long it has been since I actually said hello! I am always overcome with all that I want to say and don't have much time to say hello and then I say, next time and next time has turned into a month...FORGIVE ME PLEASE!

I have been rejoicing when the news is good and having my heart ache so when times are more rough than usual. Praising God that the end of treatment is in site for Jon. I know October seems a long way off; however, it seems a long time ago we chanted praying for number one as well!

How I wish you didn't have to go so far to get quick, accurate lab results; however, how I DO understand!

Lifting EVERYONE up to God for special Blessings. Praying you are enjoying a festive holiday weekend and that you are all well!!! Praying you are getting some much deserved rest and downtime! Praying the guys are having a great time camping (My brood loves to camp, my idea of roughing it, only three pillows instead of six at the closest motel :o) I hope you and Jen enjoyed the girl time and some GREAT movies "the boys" wouldn't have wanted to watch!

Love and Blessings,

The news sounds so good. I am glad that you guys are getting some "emotional" relief. You needed it. I was also going to ask you about procrit when his hemoglobin gets low. I have a friend that is in need of a Kidney transplant. She is not close to that yet but her numbers dropped like Jon and they started her on a weekly shot.

Just a thought, I know there is always a reason for everuything.

Hey Karen. I know this is not the news you wanted to hear- no where near. I wish there was something I could do to help. Sometimes I feel guilty for having had 5 healthy kids & 10 healthy grands. You've only had 2 and a world's worth of terrible probs. My heart aches for you and Mark & Jen & Jon.
I can really commiserate with you on some of your health probs. Low iron & hemoglobin steal so much from you. Chronic tiredness0- which that alone causes depression. Short term memory loss, feeling like you're living in a mental fog, can't keep a thought, sometimes forget you've forgotten something- till weeks later it'll pop up in your head as if your mind was shut off and all of a sudden popped back on. Makes a person feel very powerless.
My prayers are with you & yours all the time as they are with Jummy & Debbie & Ernie & Janice. I was trying to tell one of my grandaughters about Sydney and why her mom & dad chose not to to let her go to the funeral & I cried & cried while telling her -even now-. This is a trajedy that will never go away.
I love youy dearly my sister. Love, Pat

Oh Karen,

That was NOT the news I hoped to hear either! I hope you went to Scrapbook and were able to lose yourself in the memories of happy times!

I am praying that you feel God's grace and peace as you wait yet again to repeat labs. The stress of always dealing with the other shoe dropping weighs heavily at times and when you aren't feeling well ANYWAY...it is all the more difficult.

I hope many more who are close enough reach out to give you a hand and to lift your spirits.

Please know, I am ALWAYS praying for you!

Love and Blessings,

Please let Jen know we are thinking of her and praying for her to feel peace as she decides exactly what she feels God is calling her to do.Pete ad I always say write your plans in pencil, because you never know when God will ask you to erase!

Praying the visit last week out of town went well and you and Jen enjoyed some great "girl time". Praying also that Jon's treatment is pleasing to his body! I hope the distractions/stress busters bring some relief!

I hope you are all able to enjoy the rest of the summer with some fun and peace!

I know you have searched valiantly to find the answers for Jen. I would like to say that this just isn't possible, however, seeing how things work I Know all to well it is. I am sorry and I do pray they are able to make an exception for Jen based on her medical needs. I am waiting on a response from my sister-in-law to see if she has any ides. She works for NIH (National Institute of Health) and might have a thought of whom to call.

I am praying for Jen to pass all of her classes, That answers will be found to allow Jen to pursue her dream., That Jon's labs are excellent and restart treatment soon. Always thinking of you and praying for stress relief for you all!!!!!

Okay, FIRST, I have to say How adorable Jen and Jon look in the photos from oh so long ago. It brought up memories of Christian and I meeting Pete after being in Desert Shield and Storm for almost nine months...I have pictures of greeting him and had video of CNN showing us reuniting. I am so thankful he is HOME and not there now!

Now to Jen...You might remember I am a RN and I have NEVER known of a healthcare worker not being allowed to work or even enroll in school because of lack of immunizations due to health reasons~after all this ISN'T the military where you have no rights.... the most I have seen happen is work restrictions for susceptible employees who are exposed to vaccine-preventable diseases. My advice is contact the CDC ~ CDC . They will be able to tell you if there are any laws on the books governing this. You might find some answers here as well CDC Healthcare Workers. Praying this all gets resolved soon and that EVERYONE is feeling well! Have an AWESOME weekend!

Love and Blessings,

My situation (I am a wheelchair user) is very different to Jen's AND I live in the UK, but I found with school and college especially that a lot of the time regular staff weren't aware of the special arrangements adaptations that were available to me. Is there somebody there who works with students with other needs you could contact. Disability officer or some such? Contacting them often showed that I was right and the staff were wrong. I will be praying that this is just a lack of knowledge on the directors part.

Good Early Morning my precious friends. Wanting to say hello to as many as I can and wish you a truly happy and Blessed Memorial Day! I am here praying even when I can't say hello!!!

Continuing to pray for the labs to get to a steady level so it all makes sense! Glad to hear Jon is feeling feisty enough to get in a bit of mischief...and good for you Mom for keeping him in line! Happy to hear the emotions are settling down some with the meds on hiatus! Ouch to the Poison ivy/oak! So happy to hear the cream seems to be working but isn't it always the way when you see the doctor the "strange" stuff NEVER happens when you are there.

Jen, Praying you are continuing to feel good and that school is on break!

Praying you all continue to feel the loving arms of God and all of the prayers lifted on your behalf!!

Love and Blessings,

Hi Karen. We are so relatively new to liver disease that I have to admit I don't understand all of the issues you are facing right now. I'm sorry that times are hard. I DO understand the peace you feel through salvation. With Alan being an infant, I haven't thought much about dealing with a critically ill older child. What a wonderful peace!
As far as a celebration...is Jon a movie watcher? Would it be fun to close the curtains and bring out some snacks and a good movie? ....best I can think of right now. Good luck!

Karen,

Glad UAB is taking good care of Jen. I know that can be so hard and going to two different centers. I guess that is what happens as they get older, things just change.

Sorry/Glad we missed you last week, we try to stay away as long a possible but I think next week will be our visit. Olivia is having a hard time with pain herself and we trying to get through Easter Sunday since we have missed last two at home.

You guys have a happy Easter and hope to see you soon.

Wow, changing teams is a big step and realizing Jen is an adult, I always wonder how I will be when Olivia gets that age. You take care of them so much and then to start letting go...anyway, I shouldn't be musing. I am thankful though to hear things sound much better at your house and Jon seems to be coming back out of his depression some so thank you Lord for answering prayers.

You guys will stay in our prayers...and praying for stability because I know what that means.

We love you,

My dearest sweetest sister,
I just got finished reading your update & even though I've known all this, it really hit me anew. My God- it was SO hard for you- along with hard for everyone- but you seemed to get a particularly bad hand dealt to you.
And came though with sanity. See why you & Mark are 2 of the people I admire and respect most in the entire world? You guys have been to the ends of the earth & back & still have brains & wherewithall to be able to function completely normal. I Love you & yours dearly Karen,

Thank goodness for good labs! The kids have had a rough 2006 but I will pray with you for 2007. It is amazing to me when we have to have our own medical stuff done isn't it. Olivia loves it because she knows I understand a little more and it gives her a chance to tell me what it is going to be like. Prayerfully all is good with your ultrasound and if you have to have the scope...well you know the old stand by verset (sp)I am sure. Just have them give you lots of it. Thanks for checking in with us, right now we are not downtown yet but tomorrow is another day!

Her angels have been with her and I KNOW yours are with you. Praying YOU all are feeling so much better now, after being so sick.

I am sorry I haven't been by in a while, I have absolutely NO excuse! I HAVE been praying for Number one though!! I missed telling you HAPPY BIRTHDAY JON! Forgive me!

First, thanks so much for leaving your website address on Olivia's site. I wanted to know how Jon (as well as Jen) were doing and we talked a little on email but now I know everything. Second, I think I forgot to tell you but Olivia is always listed (just always very, very low on the list) We meet with Dr Heffron around the first of they year and will know where we are going from there. It could be a while or shorter, we are not sure.

Last and most important, I will be and have been in prayer for your family. We were so blessed to get to know you better at camp and we think the world of you guys. You have awesome hearts and we are just so honored to know you.

Faith isn't handed to us on a silver platter, it is something we have to work on, discover, grow in. I feel like I have a Happy meal size of faith when I really crave the buffet table...

I hope Jon doesn't need those extra shots. Hopefully his body will get used to the new meds. Poor thing, a tired 15 year old. I have my 16 yr old stepdaughter with us and she is bouncing off the walls when she is not on the telephone.
I can just hear them over the flu shots. That is to funny!
I hope labs stay good!

Wow, I checked earlier today for an update and I am glad I came back. Way to go Jon, believe it or not it WILL get easier to give yourself the shots. It is NOT an easy thing to do, you are SO BRAVE and such a fighter! I love your spirit and the fact you keep pushing through everything, you truly are amazing...

Speaking of amazing, Jen you are just as tough. Praying for your labs to get to a happy level and STAY there! Wondering how school is going, or have I missed that (I might have I have been up since 2 this morning and might have forgotten if something has changed).

Praying for ALL of you!

Praising God for the news that the medicines are COMING! I know it just starts a new prayer request to ward off side effects and money issues. Not going to soapbox (Much :o)...When is this country going to wake up and SEE what these devastating bills do to us?!?

Praying for ALL of the treatments to be pleasing to Jon's body and praying both Jon and Jen are feeling good. I loved the latest picture of Jen on the site. I will email you tonight and tell you how I post pictures into the journal page later-It is fairly easy....(It has to be if I can do it!)

Dear Jon,

I am an RN and I wish I could be there to give you your shots (I have been told I am pretty good at it :o) Before you get the shot have the person administering tell you to wiggle your toes (It REALLY DOES take your mind off the shot :o)
Dear Jen,
Way to go on your numbers! WOO HOO for you!! It is always great to get good news!
Dear Karen and Mark,
Sending hugs your way and praying for peace for you. May the insurance fight be QUICK and the medicine show great results for Jon. I am always praying for you and so thankful for the update.

So Thankful for the update! The verse you put (Proverbs 3:5-6) is one I often put in guestbooks, because having a medically fragile child, that is the ONLY way to live in peace. Praying for wisdom for all of you, as well as the medical team, knowing full well the Great Physician above already had the details worked out! Praise God for Jen's lab report and asking God to give comfort to Jon as he waits and peace for ALL of you!

You have been an inspiration, support and friend for 3 1/2 years. I know GOD was so precious when he placed our children in the same ICU together at the same time. I am praying for your family, and feel a peace that this will be for God's Glory. I know Satan loves to attack those who spread the word of God, but you have the AUTHORITY to tell Satan to LEAVE.

I pray that you have PEACE and comfort and wisdom... all promised by God. Remember when paul asked for his thorn to be removed.. God said, "I can not do that.. but I can give you GRACE to handle what lays ahead".... I pray for Grace

Dear Jon, Jen, Mark and Karen,

Wow! I didn't check in yesterday and everything starts to happen at once. I know you are Blessed with a good church and that is a huge help; however, when finances get out of hand as they ALWAYS do with major illness, that isn't always (NEVER) enough! I am praying for the treatments to be pleasing to Jon's body and for Jen to get stronger as well. I am praying for relief from these huge bills you are facing and for peace as you digest this shocking, unexpected news. How wonderful that you can feel God protecting you and knowing that He WILL meet your every need even as you come down to the wire on things. Every year I wonder how the bills get paid and realize it is the one area of attack that is constant for me! I am lifting your precious family up and asking God to bless you beyond measure for your faithfulness!
Blessings,

Good Morning,
I found your site while visiting another CB site. We too understand those enormous medical costs and everything associated with them. Too often, unless someone has walked in your shoes as much as they think they understand (they really do care) they really don't have a clue. We will pray for this specific need plus good reports for Jon.

We think about you often and miss the times"""
I still tell the doll story and remember the many trips
to Dallas when Jen was inpatient.
I sure hope you all stay healthy and out of the hospital.
I visit this page often and catch up.

I am so overwhelmed, I don't even know where to begin, so to God goes the Glory!! So happy you came by to visit and share Jon and Jen with us. How BLESSED you are to have a good, SUPPORTIVE church, that seems so hard to find here!

Jen, you are beautiful and I am rooting you on in school, I became a nurse for many of the reasons you want to be a RadTech! How strong you are!

Jon, you are the same age as my oldest son and so handsome!

Sending love and good wishes your way and praying for the day money is no longer an issue to health care for any of us! No one can begin to understand the money issues until they have walked in a medically fragile child's life.

Oh that question. "We've had several people inquire on why
we need to fund raise since both kids already have been
transplanted." Karen, I want you to know that we get hit
with that one too. I think more the further we go out from
tx. I only wish people would understand. The txs didn't
make all the medical stuff go away. It just allowed our
children to live. I hear you. My prayer tonight is that
others do to. Best wishes with your fundraising campaign.
I hope you have lots of success.

Janet,

I was so pleased to meet you at Egleston. I can't believe with as many admissions that Olivia has had we have never met but I guess it is just the age difference. We don't see many young adult/teens. Please know that I will be praying for you and the kids. I know what ups and downs there can be and so I want you to know the prayers are very heartfelt. God is obviously blessing you so when you can't see a way, God will make a way.

k jen, is there a cute doc or nurse there that u have a crush on?? is that why u are staying in club med? NOT!!this prograf level 'stuff' is for the birds!!
samantha is a nut case today because it is her birthday tomorrow, she thinks it is like christmas and she should have like 4 parties and gifts tonite at midnite then in the morning then again tomorrow night, whatever, she is almost driving me nuts!! BUT that is good, her numbers were much better today almost normal, BUT since we did them at homebase instead of hospital we do not have the prograf level back yet...........the prednisone finally caught up with her face and she is puffy, which is not cool, but oh well.
u two try really hard not to hurt each other, know very well how getting on each others nerves can be!! so sorry u are there, but very happy they are making sure the levels are ok so jen will not even think about losing this liver.
your insurance will be fine!! I can feel the good vibes!
we are saying extra prayers and thinking of u two, wish we were there to come amuse u!!

Glad to hear the numbers are going in the right direction! What the heck can they do to stabalize the FK? Jen has to be able to have a life. Are they researching this? Pester the crap out of them for more.

Hi family. I'd surely ask for refunds of those tickets- ugh! Did you know that prayers are said for you every weekend at synagogues and churches across GA? We enter your names everywhere we visit (one of the few perks of having a traveling job). You know that you all are loved. Hope to see you soon. Have a healthy holiday.

I know it's been like forever since I've visited you.
I have just been so busy.
But I think of you always.

FOR THE CHILDREN WHO RECENTLY WENT TO BE WITH GOD.MY HEART GOES OUT TO THERE FAMILIES.I WILL KEEP YOU ALL IN MY THOUGHTS AND IN MY PRAYER'S.


My First Christmas in Heaven

I see the countless Christmas trees,
Around the world below,
With tiny lights like Heaven’s stars
Reflecting on the snow.
The sight is so spectacular,
Please wipe away that tear,
For I’m spending Christmas,
With Jesus Christ this year.
I hear the many Christmas songs,
That people hold so dear,
But the sounds of music don’t compare,
With the Christmas choir up here.
I have no words to tell you,
The joy their voices bring,
For it is beyond description,
To hear the angels sing.
I know how much you miss me,
I see the pain inside your heart,
But I am not so far away,
We really aren’t apart.
So be happy for me, dear ones,
You know I hold you dear
And be glad I’m spending Christmas,
With Jesus Christ this year.
I send you each a special gift,
From the heavenly home above,
I send you each a memory,
Of my undying love.
After all “Love” is a gift,
More precious than pure gold,
It was always most important,
In the stories Jesus told.
Please love and keep each other,
As my heavenly father said to do,
For I can’t count the blessings of love,
He has for each of you.
So have a Merry Christmas,
And wipe away that tear,
Remember, I’m spending Christmas,
With Jesus Christ this year.

Hi Karen,
Hope you are feeling better today. I think we all need time to process new information. Sometimes I worry, sometimes I choose denial for a while(now there's a way to cope!LOL).
Moira has been put on imuran so as to keep her prograf lower. I think the docs are all looking ahead to preserve kidney function. That's a good thing.
Keep us posted on how your kids are doing. I can't wait for CLASS to come back.

Hi Jen & Jon (and mom and dad),
I am the mother of a 2 1/2 year old daughter who had a liver transplant 8 months ago. I live in San Diego, CA and heard about Haley, who is waiting on a liver transplant at Children's Hospital. I came across your message on her Carepage and checked out your Carepage. Being the mother of a recent transplant patient, it was nice to hear the great news of how well you are both doing. It may be already 8 months for my daughter, but for me it seems like it all just happened and the uncertainty scares me. I like to hear the wonderful success stories and you both are perfect examples of what I need to hear.

I wish you both all the best. May God bless you and your family.

Hey Jen, Jon, & Karen -

Just dropping in to say hi - hope you guys had a great Easter. I wasn't baptized until I was about 20 years old, and it was very memorable for me. Hope it's the same for you, Jen.

Happy Birthday Jon. I found this lovely site through Cheyennes.
I too have been blessed with 2 wonderful children. Johnny my 10 y.o has had 5 surgerys. After all this was left with 1 lung chronic asthmatic, chronic broncities, and ADD. My 8 y.o soon to be 9 had a brain tumor at the sweet tender age of 3. She has plenty side effects. But all in all, all that stuff does not count because they are here to be with me. I wish all the best in world. And I commend you because I know how hard it is to go in and out of hospitals. I give your children and yourselves all the love and hugs I can give.

Hi Karen!

Hope you got our recipes & book order. Saw Dr. Daniel on Tuesday - we love that man. He has been such a Godsend to us - completely reassured us on many issues and we are much more comfortable with KC & Dr. Andrews again (I think we caught Dr.A on a bad day)

We'll keep Jen in our prayers for decreased joint pain - I have osteoarthritis at a very young age, so I can sympathize somewhat with the pain. I hope you can get to the root of this evil & take care of it soon.

You are in our prayers - as always.

I am also jealous of Jen's labs! May Anthony's LFTs get there one day, please!

I am so glad for all of you, and I pray that Jen's joint pain eases soon. I also hope that the the Ritalin works for Jon. It's a wonder drug and a curse all in one, I know!

Your family is in my thoughts and prayers daily.

I'm glad that everyone is doing well, and that there are only "minor" issues to worry about this week. It seems as if one thing goes wrong, then it all snowballs!

Anthony is doing well. He said "Mama" on Saturday while pointing to me. I almost fell over! Mark's still working on him to say "Dada", but Anthony won't do it! Men!

We will send recipes over the upcoming weekend.

Hello! I just wanted to drop by to check on Jen and Jon. I hope this potassium thing gets figured out for Jen without more meds. I also hope that Jon gets the help he needs to excel in school...I know how frustrating that is; I was diagnosed at 10 with severe ADHD. I don't take anything for it anymore, but I do have to watch myself and "concentrate on concentrating" (my doctors exact words).

Karen, I am going to email you about the recipe book. I collect recipe books like crazy, and would also love to submit a recipe or two if you still need some!

Keep healthy!

Hi Mark, Karen, Jon and Jen,

I visited your site after getting a reassuring note from your Mom Karen on our CaringBridge site. First I would like to say I am so happy that you are doing so great! You truly are a big ray of sunshine for us, as my Dad is going through a slow recovery from liver/kidney transplant now. But we will be fishing soon :)

I am very very happy that you both are doing well and feeling well, and I thank your Mom for encouraging others and specifically for encouraging us that better days lie ahead. Thanks,
