Hope your appointments went well in Mayo. So sorry to hear about the therapy issued. Michael was denied therapy benefits last August. We continue to work very hard with him at home and continue to see progress. We hope to reapply for services sometime this Spring. This year we must take in a Cubs game together on a cool day. Let's check our May calendars.

Hi Jan -
Just thought I would check in & see that you made it back from mayo ok & hopefully with some insight that will allow Hollister to continue with his much needed therapy. I can only imagine how frustrated you must be. I know that you have had some good drs at Mayo in the past & I hope they were able to share something hopeful with you. Lots of thoughts & prayers to you guys...

A baby asked God, "They tell me you are sending me to earth tomorrow, but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless?"
"Your angel will be waiting for you and will take care of you."
The child further inquired, "But tell me, here in heaven I don't have to do anything but sing and smile to be happy."
God said, "Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you. And you will feel your angel's love and be very happy."
Again the child asked, "And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me if I don't know the language?"
God said, "Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to speak."
"And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?"
God said, "Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray."
"Who will protect me?"
God said, "Your angel will defend you even if it means risking it's life."
"But I will always be sad because I will not see you anymore."
God said, "Your angel will always talk to you about Me and will teach you the way to come back to Me, even though I will always be next to you."
At that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices from Earth could be heard and the child hurriedly asked, "God, if I am to leave now, please tell me my angel's name."
"You will simply call her, 'Mom.'" - Unknown

Thinking of you. Congrats on keeping Hollister out of the hospital. I know you must be completely worn out from the stress of trying to figure out what will happen next.

Tough week. Praying to continued healing and REST for you both. I can believe how exhausted you must feel Jan. Hollister is sooo lucky to have you as a mom. And good job getting that IV in, we all know how difficult that can be. I think you definately know how to take care of him waaay better than any doctors at the hospital. You know him inside and out and always do such a great job! Keep up the good work mama. I can't imagine how frustrated you must be trying to figure out his meds, you always do what is best for him though!!! Lots of blessings sent your way. And if you ever want a second hand to help or take a shift so you can get a nap in im only a phone call away!!!

Hollister - I am glad your heart is well - I have always known you have a good heart. Now if the stupid seizures would stop......
I was thinking about Gramps yesterday also - doesn't seem like he has been gone for 30 years....I am glad he was in our lives daily.
Happy Birthday Dick.....

Sounds like we have to take the good with the bad on this update - glad to hear the dr visit went well, but bummed about the seizure. So glad you were in there with them to help get him safely out. Sounds like you all need a couple more days of rest - take care & lots of love to IA on this valentine's day!!

I am late reading your update and I am so sorry I didn't respond sooner. Living with a child's illness is so challenging and doing it publically is even more challenging when people don't seem to get it. Most are afraid and uncomfortable which is no excuse but an explanation. I want to come visit. We are in Des Moines on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Are you up for a visit tomorrow or next Tuesday?

Hey. Thinking about you and praying for all
of you daily. The kids and I talked about what
we would do if we saw your family struggling at
a school event. At first, we all agreed that we
would feel uncomfortable getting involved. After
we talked some more and read what you wrote, we
all agreed that now we would stop and ASK if we could
do anything for your family. You taught a lesson
today to 17 middle school students. Please know that
we are ALWAYS rooting for Team Tough. We have your back!
Lots of love.

Hi there. I am so sorry to hear about Hooch. That is terribly sad. I cannot believe that no one stopped to help you. That is not right. Of course, a lot of things are just not right. You continue to help others. Continue to see the joys in all things small and beautiful. Don't lose faith and always think about the things that your kids, family, and friends have done to bring smiles to your face. Love ya.

Hello Hollister and family. I just read the latest entry and wanted to let you know I'm celbrating with you!! Hollister you are the strongest person I know. Your determination is so inspiring to me. I know it comes from the outpouring of love you receive from your wonderful, loving family. God knew your family would be there unconditionally to love and care for you and thats why he gave you to them. They truly honor that gift every single day. We continue to pray for you and your family daily. God Bless you all!

Hi! I hope your weekend went well and you got outside for some "sunshine on your shoulders". I'm wondering if Hollister is still recouperating from his marathon bike ride the other day? :) pretty sure he would out race me!
Good Luck to Harrison in the play-off game tomorrow..hope Ames can keep it interesting but w/half our starting line up on the injured list it may take a miracle..and I do believe in those ;)
Hugs to all, always in my prayers!

Hi Jan and Hollister, I am sorry to hear about the seizures but glad to hear about the bike. Mike has been at the Y healthy living center about 4 times a week using the bike. I hope to see you there. Mike's schedule is on the Independent FES schedule at the desk on the 2nd level. Maybe we can have coffee. Prayers, Deb

It must have been something to be at the Iowa State vs Iowa game last week. Historic!! I just read Iowa State won last night too...on a roll. I hope. Think about your family often and may there be more highs on that roller coaster ride. The FES bike sounds great.

I am sure it was so nice having her home for the summer. Kailey just returned from her mission trip to Guatemala - not sure if it is the same one Hill went to, but she absolutley loved it!!

Hi Jan, You are the definition as to why the waiver is needed. I don't understand why the powers that be can't figure out financially they are so much better off supporting us in caring for our kids at home. We still have not made it off the wait list so haven't familiarized myself with the benefits. Thank You for all your work in supporting this program. Think about you and Hollister daily. Mike still wears the Team Hollister T-shirt. Try to take care of yourself. Love, Deb

Hi Jan,
Thanks for posting the update on the hearing. I talked to our case manager and it is going to be on Aug. 15th at 1pm. Morgan and I won't be able to attend that day. I need to zip off some email letters to our reps. You and I seem to be in the same boat, we use medicaid and respite thru the BI waiver also. I guess we need to use some respite and get together for coffee sometime.
Hope Hollister is enduring the heat well. I know you all stay inside most of the time when it is this miserable, but sometimes you just have to go to an appt. or whatever.
Take care, and give me a call or text sometime.

Thank you for the update. I have been thinking of you all. I heard about the Respite changes and about fell out of my chair. Imagine if the systems put in place to help our kids and families actually did the job, instead of putting us in a position to have to fight not only for the health of our children, but for the services they need, as well. What a world it would be, huh? Instead we will keep fighting the good fight and praying for a positive outcome. Know that I will be sending my thoughts and prayers.

Hollister, We went to the midnight showing of Harry Potter 7 PT 2 last night. It was a lovely way for the series to end. I came home and cried because you and I never got to see a Harry Potter movie in the theater together. I still remember how you were at Mayo when the first movie came out. Before you, I'd never even heard of Harry Potter and now it's one of my favorite series because everytime I hear the name "Harry Potter", I think of you dressed up on Halloween as Harry. I read all of the books because of you. Keep fighting kid. We pray for you every day.
Love, Laura Pfeffer

We also appreciate your updates and walking this difficult journey with you. The only sad thing about "judgement day" coming and going last weekend was for people like "Not a Hollister Fan" who chooses to write on a page they claim no one reads! I would love to see where they end up by the ONLY TRUE PERSON WHO CAN JUDGE! Love you and stay "tough"!

Good to hear from you. I hope Hollister is able to get some fuel in him soon - I know he needs the calories & meds & can get back on track. Tell Hill, it is completely normal to change her major - nothing wrong with that. She is so young & has a whole life in front of her - she is wise beyond her years - I am sure she will find something very rewarding for her & those around her. Take Care to all of you!

Spring is COMING! You can tell how
excited everyone at JCC is for better
weather. I think almost everyone of the
kids who wrote made reference to it.
We haven't finished the book that
the school said we all needed to read.
We decided to take a break, though. :)
We decided that writing to Hollister
was more important than reading today.

I disagree that you had a "choice". This is our lives and what our purpose now is in life. The "why" is what I don't understand. Someone very smart told me that God gave us our children to care for and we accepted that gift whether it be hard or easy. You like few other mother's are the extreme example of what motherhood is all about. I model my role based on you. Deb
Deb McNamara <debstravel@mchsi.com>
- Wednesday, January 19, 2011 2:50 PM CST
I love your entry. I'm not sure how anyone could critisize your "choice" to be home with Hollister. You are a mother first and despite the "sacrifices" you have made, it is obvious that you have gained far more than you gave up. I believe that Hollister is with you because of your undying dedication and determination and he certianly has benefited from your knowledge as a nurse. I am sure the biggest benefit for him is the love that you give him each day, the kind of love only a Mother can give. I know this goes both ways. The patients that you served were very lucky to have you but the luckiest people are your 3 kids. I honor and respect you and think you are the strongest, most hard-working Mom I know.

You made a choice to be an RN and your expertise has helped many along the way-including your son. Your quick thinking has saved his life many times. We all love you for that, my friend.
Now, if you continue to have blue Mondays...crank up the heater, put on some shorts, and make a pitcher of margaritas. Just a thought.

Thinking of you and wishing you happiness - and some level of peace - even on the saddest days.
Sometimes life is just too hard - but then we turn and pray..
Give us this day our daily bread - not our monthly bread or our annual bread or our lifetime bread ... Our daily bread.
and...
Thy kingdom come; Thy will be done;
Today - in my life - on earth as it is in heaven ...
Peace.

Merry Christmas Eve!
and Now some quotes from one of your favorite Christmas movies.....can you guess??
"Have you seen these toilets? They're GINORMOUS!"
"The best way to spread Christmas Cheer, is singing loud for all to hear."
"We elves try to stick to the four main food groups: candy, candy canes, candy corns and syrup."
"What about Santa's cookies? I suppose parents eat those too?"

Thinking of you. I am saddened to learn of Judy's diagnosis. My Mom had a large melanoma removed from her arm now 24 years ago this month. I pray the same outcome for Judy. Wishing you Christmas blessings. A tree is just a symbol. It's what YOU carry in your heart all year that is Christmas. Thinking of you and yours, sending love and prayers to all.

Your words are so powerful. You give voice to Hollister and MELAS by your words. You have no idea how many you have helped by your words alone. You give strength and courage thru your words. You give a name and a face to the disease that is MELAS. You make others aware. In some way, I hope it is beneficial to you to write as I know it is beneficial to so many others. Those of us who read feel connected and hope you are able to find some small comfort in messages sent back to you. We want you to feel the love and the prayers. Your words are so powerful and meaningful. Please keep writing. Love and prayers to you always.

I wish I was there to take care of you. I wish I could take away your feelings of despair and sadness. I wish MELAS did not exist. But my greatest wish is that I wish I had your courage and wisdom to write like you do. You are amazing and have done wonderful things for your family. Hollister, Hillaree, and Harrison, are all exceptional kids. We love all of you.

It's impossible to truly grasp the struggles that your family has faced over these past nine years. Here is what I can grasp....Hollister is an amazing and wonderful young man. As a matter of fact, your entire family amazes and inspires me. Even with the sorrow of wondering what could have been, you all live life to the fullest. It is just not the life you envisioned or a life that our society defines as full. You live a life of sacrificial love and we could all learn a little bit about that!
Anne Dols

Jan ~~ Don't ever stop writing about Hollister and about how you feel. I know I am not the only one who waits patiently between updates to hear how he is doing. I like hearing your feelings because very often they are similar to mine and you just seem to have a way of saying it that I could not put into words.
Our lives are similar, in a way, except that what you have gone thru with Hollister seems much harder to me than what I have gone thru with Morgan. Even though Hollister is older, we have been going thru it longer. Yet, God met for us to meet at His time. I hope you know that I am always here for you.
Now that Morgan is back in school we should try to get together sometime. If you can't get away I could sure come to the house. Let me know.

What you have said is not offensive - what it is is eye opening. So many of us have not nor will ever experience the living nightmare you are in - but then again, the in blink of an eye that CAN change for anyone!
Please continue to write about Hollister and please continue to write period.
I will continue to follow and pray!

Many years ago, my son was in elementary school at St Theresa's and he brought home a flier announcing a benefit for Hollister. I have followed this site ever since but never posted. I'm sure there are alot of people out here like me. I want to let you know that I check in several times a week. I always wonder how we would handle something like this if it was my family. I truly think your family is amazing!! You are an angel here on earth!! I admire all you and your family are doing. My prayers are with you all.

Thinking of you. We are at only 18 months so neophites in comparison. At this time I try to numb myself from milestones by watching TV and thinking only of the minute. I believe the word is I am paralyzed. I know you have heard it before "1 day at a time" and "It's all in the hands of God".

Don't spend too much time thinking about the the people that run away. You can walk into a room and radiate energy. Hollister gets that from you.

Jan, as usual, your words are so powerful. Having taken Katie to school just a few weeks ago, I can share some of your same feelings. Having Hollister's sister, friend, helper leave is something I can only imagine. Your feelings of joy and sadness are so justified. Thinking of you all as you adjust to the next chapter. Sending love and prayers to all of you in DM and now to USD as well. Good Luck, Hillaree!!

I am so happy that Hillaree has this opportunity! She is an amazing young woman who is going to do amazing things. I know you will miss her terribly, but she is now learning to make her own place in the world.
I know what you mean about wondering where Hollister would be if it weren't for his "stupid" disease. Inside I know he is just as pleased as you are about what his sister is doing. And, yes, curbs do definitely suck!

I hope you loaded Hillaree with 3 liter "Pepsi" . Just wanted to bring a smile to your face, my friend. She's gonna be great...I can't wait for her to spend Spring Break at South Padre. You'll have to come with her. In the meantime, just know that she is in the right place and will excel and whatever she does.

Please pass the tissues! I am sitting at work balling - i hope no one comes over to my cube. I am not looking forward to the day that any of our 4 move out, but I know how well prepped Hill is for this. She has been a trooper on many fronts - early morning diving practices, her trips to the orphanage, babysitting on Friday nights to earn money, and of course, her selfless devotion to Hollister. She is a world changer... Kudos to Hill & lots of love to you Jan to get you through!!

Wish we were all still neighbors and the boys were little!
When were spending our time bowling or going to the beach.
Hollister and Little Gary were bestest buddies.
Life was so much easier then. I know for a fact how much
you love Hollister and Hill and Harrison. They are the luckiest
kids to have you!
Who would have thought that we would switch places...You
are the Mom and I am the provider...Tee Hee!
Miss you.
Hoping Hollister can do amazing things, when he feels better!
Love ya...

I, and the countless others who love and adore you and Hollister will continue to come here. We know that what you all are going through is very real. As someone who loves you, I wish it wasn't real, but I've known you guys for a lot of years now and have seen, first hand how real your life is and with how much dignity and respect you all handle your circumstances.

2. If this site bothers you so much, STOP COMING HERE!
The people who visit this site LOVE HOLLISTER and love getting updates on how he and HIS ENTIRE FAMILY are doing.
3. Get a life you small, soul-less troll.

I am one of im sure many people who truly appreciate your updates. Especially now that Hollister is in the "adult" category as far as the hospital is concerned this is my only line to check in on hollister and your family. I feel that you have been very generous to take the time to continue to update everyone on hollister, both good and bad. I love to hear how well Hollister is doing as well as when he is having a rough time so we can be there to support you.
I hope that rude comments come to a hault. You already have enough on your plate without ignorant people adding to it. I truly believe in my heart the only reason Hollister has done so well is because of your love and dedication over these years. YOU are the one who is there every day and night making sure he is taken care of, bathing him, figuring out his medications and feeds, doing CPT in the early morning....lol, and most of all advocating for what he needs! You are truly amazing and inspiring so please dont let anyone make you feel any less!!

You have blazed trails where no one dared walk before & for that, I am sure you have mnay doctors, nurses & friends grateful for your patience, perseverance & persistence. Hollister is in good hands!

We haven't met but a few years ago someone told me about a report on Hollister getting his wish to meet the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders on a Des Moines TV station. What tweeked my interest even more was your family's last name. At first, I read your posts on the Caringbridge website to figure out if our families were related. Then I got hooked on Hollisters' website. Now I check in to see if he is having a good week or what is new with your family.
I am sorry to hear that someone felt the need to be malicious to you and your family. I also hope that you will be able to set aside the ignorance of some and continue to inspire the rest of us. Now, in this age of computer it's easy for cowards to make hurtful comments in emails.
I hope that Hollister had a good report from the Mayo Clinic.

I'm sorry that someone felt the need to be horrible on this page that has meant so much to those of us who don't get the chance to see Hollister very often, but still love and care for him so much. I know, too that it hss been a good outlet for you guys to communicate your feelings and where things are with Hollister to those who love you guys. I would have choice words for those who were offensive, but this is to be a forum of love and caring for Hollister and I will not go there. We love you guys and think about you every day. Mike and I like to be twins and wear our Hollister T-shirts a lot these days. Take care and hope to see you soon. With love, Cara, Mike and Grace (faithful members of Team Tough 4-ever) ; )

Those who chose to post cruel words must be the weakest of the weak. Will never understand why there are those who deliberately choose to be cruel. Please rememeber that there are FAR MORE many people who love and care for you all and that love is FAR STRONGER than any negative thing that can be thrown. Team Tough is LOVED and please don't let the saddness and desperation of a few weak people stop you from writing on your site. Your words mean so much to so many and Hollister's fighting strength is stronger than anything I have ever seen!! Stand strong Team Tough and know that you are admired and LOVED!!!

Then so apply to stairs!!

What a miracle that Hollister is doing so well after such a tough hospital visit. Hollister and family can really roll with the punches but I guess that is what we do. The Cubs game sounds great. After we get home (July 20th) maybe we can meet you there for a game.
Take care and stay strong.

I am sorry that you were in the hospital for so long and so scared. I am also thankful for the care you received, and although it was hard to transition from peds to adult - trying to find a positive about a hospitalization - that is actually a good thing to have to get used to :) - you are tough - stay that way

Thinking of you today. Sorry to hear
of the rough night. It sounds promising
that Hollis was able to have his seizures stabilized
more easily than last week. MELAS is so
complicated for someone not in the
medical field to understand. Thanks
for continuing to educate all of us.
Because of Hollister's struggles
I was able to more easily understand when
a local baby boy was diagnosed with a
mitocondrial disease. Thank you
for helping me become more aware.
Love to all of you.

We are very sorry to hear about your son, Hollister. We came close to losing a son once and spent 3 days in the ICU at Blank and 2 1/2 months trying to diagnose and then followed with a surgery. We were very lucky, but it's unexplainable what a parent goes through. If there is anything we can do to help with Farrell (to or from baseball, football, school, staying with us) just say the word. Prayers and peace, The Montgomery's

Can't even begin to imagine the emotions you are feeling with Hollister so sick and Hillaree out of the country!!! My prayer for you today is: Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God's peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7. Love you Team Tough!

Hey Hollister,
This is Dallas Clark of the Indianapolis Colts. I just wanted to say "Hi" to you and your parents and to let you know that I am thinking about and praying for you. Reading your journal, I can tell you are a man of great courage and strength! I admire your fight and the love you have from family and friends. "All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. God is our merciful Father and the source of all comfort. He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When they are troubeld, we will be able to give the the same comfort God has given us." 2 Corinthians 1:3-4.

We are sorry Hollister remains under the weather, and that the medical care you have received has been horrendous. It is unfortunate that one good doctor means you have gone through 50 horrible medical staff to get there. I would think that since MELAS is so rare, that they would consider it a great opportunity to learn.......but what do I know?
You are justifiably frustrated and rightfully angry!

How I wish there were more people in the world like you. I am disgusted with the "care" you and Hollister got at the Mercy ER!! It makes my heart sick to think of what you went through and lack of concern on the "professionals" part. As I have said, God gave you to Hollister for a reason. You are the strongest Mom I know and your love and dedication to your family is unwavering. It is so obvious that you strength, dedication and love has worn off..you must see it when you watch Hillaree and Harrison step in and help. You are a remarkable mom with incredible children. Know that others see this and want to learn from your example. I hope you have a Happy Mother's Day and hopefully will hear from Mayo soon..with good results. Thinking of you all, sending love and lots of prayers.

God's peace and Grace.

Happy Mother's Day Janet!!!!
I am so sad about Hollister feeling so rotten, and I am disgusted that you have to fight so hard to get appropriate care.
Hillaree is amazing with Hollister - she is the most caring person I know = especially for an 18 year old, and even for most adults I know.
Love

I cried as I read your entry... I can hear the frustration in your voice and I would just like to say that I'm so sorry that there are idiots out there that cannot do a simple thing as using a fax machine or even emailing results. I love you and want you to know that you are one of the GREATEST MOM'S I know. On Mother's Day, my wish to you is that you dream of your family sitting on the beach. Basking in the sun, Enjoying the sunset, Drinking Hammer Heads or a cold Corona. One day soon, this dream will come true. Until then, live your life as only you know how. That is, being the GREATEST MOM in the world. You are the best and we all know it!!! Happy Mother's Day!

I'm so sorry. I wish that people could be made to experience life from other's perspective when they are behaving ignorantly. We would all be changed. We'd be kinder, gentler, more sensitive, patient and understanding. Thank you for writing about your situation. It does change people's perspective. It makes a difference. I know that my students that read what you write, care and are changed. Hollister and your family matter to them...to all of us. Hang in there.

I wish things were better for Hollister. It must be very frustrating and make you feel hopeless; but keep in mind that you are not alone. A lot of us continue to pray for him and your family. I hope things get better soon and that this feeling of hopelessness goes away and that you get all of the answers you need. Take Care.

I can't imagine your frustration. I have enough of it with Daniel's health issues and doctors not having answers, and Hollisters are so much more! He is lucky to have the family his has (and of course you are lucky to have him too!) But MELAS sucks. I'm sorry for what it does to Hollister and his family. I'll be saying extra prayers that you and the doctors can get the latest issues figured out.

Just wanted to say hello to everyone! It's been awhile since I posted a comment but read your updates often Jan. Sometimes I laugh out loud as I read them and sometimes I cry inside. But always I read in amazement at how amazing you are and how lucky your family is to have such a fabulous mom! I giggled at your post about being a "homemaker". the funny thing you, you have been a homemaker the past 22 years. and you are definately the best nurse i have met. you have just been doing it 24/7 the past 11 years without any PTO, holiday pay, or health benefits. luckily the benefits hollister gives you everyday i'm sure make up for the other stuff. anyway, just wanted to share my amazement with you as i know i am not the only one who shares this feeling! tell hollister hello for me! i look forward to hopefully seeing everyone at graduation this year, anhtuan's sister teresa is graduating and i would looove to see hollister!

bleahhhhhh (Peanuts cartoon) to the homemaker thing.....but I do have to say you make a MEAN cheesecake, Hollister would say you make a great tuna sandwich - and don't remind me about the peanut butter sandwich I made him once, and he said it was OK, but it wasn't as good as his Moms...... and you...do a great job of getting stains out of clothing :>) but homemaker......NOT!!!! It takes a NURSE and a MOM to take care of Hollister, and a MOM to take care of Hillaree and Harrison!!!
You are a MOM and a nurse!!!!

I love your homemaker entry - I am not sure that any of us are ever cut out to be homemakers...I mean really, if you like to vacuum, dust & clean toilet bowls, soemthing is definitely wrong! I like the baking cookies notion though -nothing better than fresh out of the oven cookies & cold milk.

Reading your Easter Journal, has made us think not of
Mary and other Mother's who have seen their child suffer.
We have seen that look in your eyes, your face, your tired
body, and your whole being. Your commitment and devotion
to Hollister is rare. It has been a honor for us to be a
part of it! Sometimes throught the eyes of the sick child,
we are the lucky ones!
