Hello there everyone!
Glad that all the news seems to be good for you guys lately. You sure deserve good news, if anyone does. It's nice to hear that you guys are getting out and about quite a bit. That must be a nice change of pace. The weather here in Michigan sure is looking up. It was in the 50's today. Yeah!!! Sorry if my note has a lot of typing errors. My "h" and "u" keys are working as one right this minute. If you saw how dirty my keyboard is - you'd know why. Daniel loves the computer. Too bad he doesn't love washing his hands before he gets on it. Ah well. Noone is perfect. We think of you so much and we pray for you too. Sounds like you'll be back in Michigan in no time. Won't that be a wonderful day!!! Can't wait to hear that you're coming home.

Hi Justin! Sounds like you're still doing well and getting stronger every day!!
I just got back from Boston. I had some athletes competing in a big track meet up there. It was a lot of fun. The track meet was indoors, but it was beautiful outside so every chance I got, I would sneak out to enjoy the sunshine. I'm excited that it is almost spring!
Boston is a fun place to visit, but I don't like trying to drive in big cities. We got really lost trying to find our way from dinner to the hotel! But then, anyone that knows me, knows I get lost pretty easily... even in Greyling!
What sort of things are you up to these days? Is there still snow there? We have a little snow, but not much.
I hope it is good weather to get outside as I am sure you enjoy that!
Keep getting better!
Love, Kathy

Keep improving -- you have to be the most brave person that we know!!! We will try to contact your Grandpa Bob and Grandma Janet when we get back to MI. We think of you a lot... Don & Bernice Loeher

Hey buddy,
Was that third picture a kiss just for me? I can see that you haven't been eating any blue popsicles lately. Your tongue is normal color. Are you beating your mom at trouble? Have you done any puzzles lately? Did you watch all of fear factor the other night? Is it cold out there? We have sunshine today and it is supposed to be close to 50 tomorrow. I am very excited. Well you take care of yourself and stick your tongue out to mom and Ashley from me.

Hey Justin!!!

Keep up the great work! I see you are doing better and better! I just taped your Hulk picture inside the canoe. You will be with me all the way to Key Largo!! Maybe I'll get to take a picture of an alligator and send it to you. If they get too close I'll just flash my picture of the Hulk at them and scare them away!! Is that a Norelco electric shaver your Dad is using on your head? If it is it is the same kind I use to make my bald head shine!! Keep getting better and it will be Spring and time to go home!! Tell everyone hi for me and give Mom and Dad and big hug for Dana and me.

Justin, It has been a while since I last wrote. Shame on me!! So, it sounds like you are doing great with 100%!! Yeah!! God really answers our prayers. You tell that Grandma and Grandpa of yours that they better send Auntie Lil and e-mail. I like getting mail like this. It is very fun. Speaking of fun, it sounds like you had a very special visitor at the Ronald McDonald House. Did you get to play floor hockey? I bet you can really whack that puck!! Shelbie says hello, and her 3rd grade class at Valley Christian School always prays for you and your family. Have a great week. Love, Auntie Lil

Hi Justin...What a nice way to start my morning by looking at your beautiful smile on your website. The chili you were making looked really good too. Very windy and icy here today. Alot of cars off the roads I hear. Did you try any of those tatoos I sent or didn't they work very well? I remember with my own boys, they didn't always look so good. Anxious to see you back home and at our office. We have a new person working with us that you will get to meet.Give your Mom a big hug for me too. Love,Patty (from your favorite dentist,ha ha!!)

Hi there from all the Bourdeaus ! We are so glad to hear that things are going so well and that you have been able to have some fun lately.

Hey Buddy,
I am so glad to hear that you are doing well. We went up north this weekend and it took Chico 3 hours to plow the driveway so we could get into the cabin. There is so much snow up there that the mailboxes are in snowbanks. All you see are the doors to the mailboxes. Michael made a sledding hill in the backyard here. It has a jump. I went down it the other day but made myself fall off before I hit the jump, I was going too fast. He called me a sissy. He came home from school yesterday and said that he wanted a haircut. Within 15 minutes we were at the shop getting a haircut so he didn't change his mind. It was soooo long. I finally have my boy back. It is supposed to be in the 40's here today so the snow is going to go away. Next year Michael will make the same sledding hill and you and Casey can go down it. I won't let him put the jump in it or a snowman in the middle. Continue to get better so you can come home we miss you soooooooo much.
Love,
Lynette

I don't know exactly when but I'm coming to see you soon. I miss you too much to wait much longer. Grandma and Grandpa can watch Dave Jess, and Jake for a few days so that I can come see you. I'm not bringing them cause they need to stay in school. (They wish they could come too though) We pray for you every night when we say our bedtime prayers, and we know that your body is healing all of the time. Jacob is always telling me about silly things that you have told him or done and then we giggle and miss you even more. Love You!

I am so glad to read of your continued progress and I am praying for your complete recovery! I have a little boy around your age ( I think you may have met him once, a long time ago when you were just a little tyke) and I have told him about you and shown him your Hulk picture, which, by the way, he thought was so very cool. I look forward to reading about your continued progress and can't wait for the day that I read about you coming home. God bless you and your family.

Hello there.
Life sure is trying some days, to say the least. We've had such a cold spell lately. And guess what, our furnace went out, so we had no heat from Saturday night until Monday afternoon. It was inconvenient and COLD!!! But all is snuggly warm now. I know that I'm so spoiled with such an easy life. I'm praying that your life gets a little easier every day until the day when you can come home to Michigan. I'm so glad that your cmv numbers are continuing to come down. That has to make everyone's day a little brighter. Keep your chin up! There are SO many people out here praying that you get well real soon.

Hi Justin,
Glad you had a break with a day off. Love the tent and the turtles on the side of your screen. I took a break and went down state to see our grand daughter. Getting big already at 5 months. There's not a lot of snow down there, and the sun actually was shining and above 10 degrees. Sounds like you were having the same weather we were having in the u.p., but we have LOTS of snow......Prayers are with you all. Your U.P. friends. Love, Bonnie

Hi Justin!
I was just looking over some pictures from May that had you in them. It must have been quite an adventure! What was your favorite part? I'll bet your dad and grandpa will bring you down to the river as soon as you feel better...and when it's a bit warmer! I hope you are keeping busy with your school work and keeping out of trouble! Best Wishes, Clark

Hi Justin!

Just want to know we are thinking of you and know you will be feeling better very soon! Doesn't sound like you are missing "too" much outside right now with the nasty cold weather.... I'm glad you are inside and warm with people who love you! Take care, Mary Potter

Hey Justin! I love the picture of you and your mom, but the one of you, your dad and grandpa take 1st prize. That is a very special picture.
It sounds like you are doing good. On the up and up as they say. Shelbie says hello and gives you hugs and kisses (yuck). You are a very special little boy and loved by a lot of people, but there is one who loves you more than anyone could, and that is God. He is awsome and very gentle and kind. I think you know all of this, because I'm sure your mommy shares that kind of stuff with you. Tell everyone hello and I will keep in touch with you.Love, Auntie Lil

Hey Justin -
I really enjoyed getting to hang out with you last weekend- I'm glad that your dad and grandparents are there with you now. You are such a trooper - it was a tough week, but you're on the upswing now, I know it. Keep it up, I think of you all the time and keep thinking of what a great kid you are! I'll keep checking in on you at your website, but wish I could be there with you! Love, Stacie

Hello Justin and family.
Great news about the new cmv numbers and the bone marrow numbers. We're all rejoicing with you and your family!!!!! You're doing great. Keep up the good work.
Boy are you missing some weather here in Michigan. Not only did Daniel have three days off school, but my husband couldn't go to work for two days because we couldn't get out our driveway. Your Uncle Pat was nice enough to come and plow us out about three times. It's been snowing and blowing so hard here lately. One day it only took a few hours after getting plowed out to be snowed in again. We can't wait to get back to Florida. It sure was fun to be playing in the ocean on Christmas. When we move there, you guys will have to come stay with us if you ever want to visit Disney World. Sounds like fun to me!
You'll have to have your Grandma Bradford bring you over again sometime to play with Daniel. Or maybe we could meet at McDonald's or something. Now that you can eat anything you want, McDonald's or Burger King might be fun. Or the park in summer. Or the water park. Aunt Angie and the kids would have fun with us there too, I bet.
I'm getting too chatty now. What's new?!?
I'll continue to keep you all in my thoughts and prayers.

Justin,
I just got home from a VERY long day at work. I had a really really bad night but then I signed on to your website and guess what? Now I feel like laughing and singing and doing gymnastics! Reading good stuff about you made all of my grumpies go away. Too bad it is midnight and I am home all alone with no one to celebrate with. I guess that's probably good cause NO ONE, and I mean NO ONE should ever have to hear me singing. I can't wait until I get the chance to see you all. I miss you more and more every day and I can't wait for you to beat the tar out of me. I love you Juddy Buddy.

I was on active duty with the Coast Guard at the time and we were providing a safety zone for your grandfather and his partner. I was amazed with their drive and determination. I met some really wonderful people that day, I'll never forget it! Your in my prayers! Best Wishes, Jessica

Hey buddy,
Just signed on to the web page to tell you that the kids finally had school but by the last entry in the guest book you already knew that. I see that my daughter is working hard at school. Do you think her assignment for her class was to sign your guestbook? See even when she is at school you are in her thoughts. As you are always in all our thoughts and prayers. Did you finish your 550 piece puzzle yet? Keep practicing because that dolphin is 1000 pieces and I am still waiting for you. You take care of yourself and tell everyone we said hi and we miss all of you!

Dear Justin and mom,
I found your site while visiting your grandpa's website about the Mississippi river challenge and I thought I would sign your guestbook. First off, I have to say that I absolutely loved the hulk hair and gloves - you obviously don't need a guard dog in your room Justin!
You guys are in my prayers.

I have two boys both diagnosed with ALD and Addison's disease also. We were just out to Minnesota from Jan.,03 to Aug 21,03 and we were in room 435!!! Both Tyler and Zach recieved a BMT. Tyler BMT day Feb.8 and Zach BMT day May8. If we would of known about the benefit I would of brought the boys there so your friends and family could meet two successful boys that are doing good. Tyler is back to school and is living pretty much a normal life. Zach is still home schooled we had a rougher time with him but he is coming around. We will be back out there March 17 and 18 hope to meet you. God bless you and your family and we are praying for you to come home.

Hey Buddy,
The kids don't have any school again today. Michael is bored and driving me nuts. I wish you were here so you could entertain him. I finally finished the BLUE!!!! puzzle. I am saving the dolphin puzzle until you come home so we can do it together. It is sooooo cold here. The wind is blowing the snow over the roads, that is why there is no school. You keep up the good work at getting better so you can come home. We all miss you.

Hi Justin--- I haven't written to you in a couple weeks.. oops! My track team is back at school and we have been very busy getting them ready for their first track meet which is on Friday! I'm pretty excited because I have some very fast runners this year, so I hope we do well at the meet!
Today we didn't have school though because we finally got a huge snow storm! I was glad to have a day to catch up, and also to play in the snow.
So, I'm going to try to re-send that package tomorrow and I hope it finally gets to you! I hope you are feeling pretty good and keep getting stronger every day.

Hi Buddy! I'm sorry that I haven't written to you in so long but we have been pretty busy getting ready for your benefit. I wish that you and mom and Ashley could have been there. It was great. There were so many people there, all for you! Pretty soon I hope that I will be able to come out to see you. I'm not sure yet. Tell mom to let me know when would be a good time. Marissa and Kate miss you and Ashley so much. It's hard being apart for so long but they know that soon enough you will be home and then we can play as often as we like. I tried to call out there last night but the phone was busy for a long time. Maybe I will try calling again tonight, but I bet you won't talk to me again you little stinker! We have another snow day today. That makes two in a row! We love it when that happens! I guess it's bye for now. God's blessing to all! Love,

Hi Justin and family,
Sounds like your days are very busy with the clinic and school work. 8:00 am clinic appointments - that's pretty early - do you have to walk outside to go to the clinic? I hope not - it's been so very cold. I'll bet the "Incredible Justin Hulk" doesn't even feel the cold. You have been so brave and strong - we are proud of you. I think puzzles are fun, too. Tell Ashley hello and know that you guys are always in our thoughts and prayers. Love, Aunt Colleen

Hi Justin,
I am a friend of Gordon Nash, whose brother is a friend of your grandpa. He told me about your website and how brave you are for fighting your sickness the way you are. The picture of you dressed in the Incredible Hulk costume is really cool! I want you to know that I am praying for you and that I have asked a lot of my friends to do the same. I don't know why you have to be sick like this, but maybe it is to teach us grown-ups the real meaning of being brave. You have us all beat hands-down - especially with those big green Hulk hands! God bless you and your family -but I know He is already there loving you more than anyone else ever could imagine.

I heard how much you miss him. We had a wonderful time and always thought about you Saturday night! We saw pictures of you and mom and that made it almost as good as you being there, but not quite.

Hey there Justin!
Sounds like the reports your mom is giving us is very good. I bet you are soooooo glad that your dad is coming. I hope he can stay a while too. Tell him, Grandma and Grandpa Bradford, your mom and Ashley hello from Auntie Lil. I love you and pray for you and your whole family each and every day. Shelbie says a big hello. I got tired of her complaining about her hair, so I took the liberty of cutting off 1 1/2". Her mom wasn't very happy with me, so they are at the beauty shop getting her fixed up with a perm. Maybe that will help her a little. If she were a little boy, I would have shaved her head, but little girls look a little different than boys with their heads shaved. You, your dad and grandpa Bradford all look "cool" with no hair. I like it!! Of course you would look good no matter what. Shelbie says hello, and her 3rd grade class at Valley Christian School pray for you. You've sure got a lot of people who pray for you to get better. Thats cool to know isn't it? Well, I've got to go. Much love and lots and lots of hugs and kisses, Auntie Lil Shanks

Glad to hear how great you are doing!!!! Keep up the good work and before you know it you will be back in Michigan shoveling snow and making snowmen! I'll be visiting Grandpa and Grandma Bradford and Aunt Angie this weekend. Wish you were there to greet me too!! Miss you Hulk..get home soon!!

Even though I don't know you well, you have become one of my heroes. May God continue to heal your Justin's precious, little body, and give you and your family strength.

Dear Justin,
Hi, I heard you are sick. It sure isn't fair that a child can be so sick. I don't know if you worry about little things in your day, but you sure are helping me and my family not to complain. We got a kick out of your picture with the green hair and beard. My children asked if you can get it off. I am a mother of four children and do not have anything as hard as you do. I wish I could hug you and make it all better. I can't! I can tell you about a loving God who knows you and your pain. He loves you so much He gave up his own son so that we could know Him. I know I wanted to be loved that much so I believed Him at His word and it has made all the difference.God loves you Justin and wants you to love Him back. I have asked God to give you the faith to believe in Him and to heal your body. Me and my family will keep praying for you.

Dear Justins mom and dad, I am a mother of four and I hurt just to hear about your sons. You sure know heartache. Life isn't fair and it doesn't make sense.I don't know your pain and I can't say anything to make the hurt go away. I do know the God who knows you, your sons, your pain and your needs. I know He wants you to know Him. Please talk to Him, He alone can give you what you need. I have Justins picture on the fridge to remind us all to pray for you and Justin.
most sincerely, Jean

Hey Justin, I know I wrote last night, but couldn't pass up the good news and really great pictures tonight. I love Sully and Mike, they are really cute. When the movie first came out I went out and got the little automated dolls for my nephew who was about 1 1/2 at the time and he was SCARED to death of them. He would watch the movie, but the dolls he would just look at from a distance and when we would make them talk he would get upset. Anyways, I am really excited about the good news. I will continue to pray. You continue to get strong. Take Care

Dear Justin,

I heard about you from my sister-in-law Anne Knickerbocker, who is friends with your aunt Tammy. I was a little bit scared to go to your website since I thought it might be sad. You know what, it was really great. You are really an encouragement to me. You seem to have a great attitude and strong spirit.

I read the updates that your mom puts in the log. It sounds like you are doing really well. I pray it continues and that you can be totally healed.

I see you are a Hulk fan. I haven't seen that movie, but I would like to some time. I used to read the comic books when I was about your age. May be your medicine might end up making you strong like the Hulk. That would be something, wouldn't it?

Anyway, I am sure that you have some times when you are scared or worried, and I am sure your parents do too. I don't know why God lets things happen the way He does, I just try to have faith that He knows what is best. I find that very hard sometimes. I do know that He loves you and me (even when things aren't going well for us).

Justin, I really hope you get better. I will pray for you and your family. Stay strong and rely on God to get you through.

Hi Justin,
My sister, Anne Knickerbocker, is friends with your Aunt Tammy. Anne wrote to me and told me about the suffering you are enduring right now. I am so sorry that your life has become so complicated and painful at such a young age. Life gets complicated and painful for all of us, but it is especially sad for adults, like me, to see children, like you, struggle. Thankfully we are ALL in God's care no matter what our age. I have come to depend on my relationship with God far more than anything else in my life and I am thankful that He loves me enough to remain faithful to me when I cry to Him.
I will be praying that God warms your heart and so that you know He is with you day and night.
If there is anything from Dallas Texas I can send you I would be happy to, just let me know!

I see you have had a slight setback and returned to the hospital but you are at it again. You keep up the good work! Boy, You sure have a large mouth to swallow all those pills........I loved the pics.......especially the one of you forgiving your Mom. What a fine young man you are. You are so special to be loved by so many people....even when you make the ugly face when it is time for your pills. I will checking in on you again soon. Keep your chin up big guy......oh that was suppose to be.....BIG GREEN GUY. I forgot you are the Incredible Hulk. When my oldest son was young the Incredible Hulk was his favorite show to watch....he was 5 years old then and he is now 28. That was a long time ago but I see you are helping to keep the Incredible Hulk alive. Take care Justin and we are praying for you and your family.

Justin, I am probably going to have to have a bone marrow transplant like you only i'm 42 and was really nervous until I read about you and how brave you are. I found the address for your page on the Lance Armstrong website and how you want people from all over to write to you. I love the picture of you with the Hulk stuff on and the green hair and goatee. You are a handsome young man and sound like a very, very brave one, too. Thank you for giving courage to the rest of us who are going to go through what you are going through. You are going to be a handsome man one day and will look back on this as a journey that made you into a stronger person. I hope your family has a wonderful new year and will include you in my prayers. You're a trooper! Thank you.

Hi Justin, Haven't spent much time at the computer for a while...looked into your journal tonight to catch up on what's been going on with you. Bet you are happy to be back at Ronald's house and we are happy to read about you and the progress your are making. You are ""something special"" when it comes to taking all those pills. I know some grown-up people that complain to take a few pills. Tell your Grandpa Bob and Grandma Janet we are getting lots of snow here in Caseville also.. Stay strong, keep being brave and think about the Springtime,, Our thoughts and prayers are with you and all your family. Don & Bernice Loeher (we know your Grandpa & Grandma from GM.)

I love the picture of you and your Mom together. You both look so happy. What a lucky boy you are to have such a great Mom and Dad, sister, grandparents, aunts and uncles, cousins, and tons of friends! I was so happy to hear all about you from Lauren. Now I understand a little better what your days are like. Lauren brought me an apron from the Ronald McDonald House, so every time I use it I will think of you - and pray for you. Tonight I will pray for you and your friend Cade. God bless you. Keep up the good work. We are all proud of you.

Hi Justin!!
We are so glad you are feeling well and we hope you come back as soon as you can to school becouse we miss playing with you and we love and pray for you all the time. We like the yuccky face picture of you having to take your medicine. We hate medicine too!! But Joey's favorite picture is still the one with your green mohawk. Maybe your mom and dad could let you wear your hair like that when it grows back. We wonder if Mrs. Houbeck would like it?? Tell Ashley that Aubrey says Hi and misses her too, and the kitchen just isn't the same without your mom!!
Love and Prayers,

THIS IS NOT JUST FOR JUSTIN, I WOULD LIKE EVERYONE TO READ,

I just got done spending 4 days with the most brave person I know. I have learned a lot from this visit. You can not imagine the things that he goes through in a day and NEVER!!!! do you hear him complain. When Denise asks him to take his pills, all 47 of them, he never says a word he just says ok and takes them down one by one. If he gets up in the night to go to the bathroom, he goes directly to his mom when he is done to get a little squirt of hand sanitizer. How many six year olds do you know that would remember to do that in the middle of the night. When he has a stomach ache he does not carry on about it he just says my tummy hurts and that is it. I have heard him get sick right down from the toes and never during that time did he whine or cry. When he ran his fever all he said was I am cold and layed on the couch. I know that most people would complain about the littlest thing when they are sick, but not Justin. He just keeps sticking his tongue out at some people, which means I love you. That is his kiss because you can't get near him. Justin I am sooooooo proud of you. You are certainly the most brave person that I know. Keep up the good work and take care of yourself. Thank you for our time together. You are forever in our prayers.

Love, Lynette

Dryden, MI U - Sunday, January 18, 2004 4:54 PM CST

Justin,

As you get older you will realize that there are real heroes in the world that are not always the people that you think they will be. It isn't always some superstar athlete that makes several million dollars a year and whines about everything that he has to do. Or some movie star that makes a good impression on the movie screen but whose life is a mess behind the scenes. Nor are they super heroes that are fictional characters like Superman, Spiderman, or the Hulk, which only exist in print or in the movies. I would think that all the people that read this guest book would agree that a young man of your age that could endure all you have been put through and not whine or complain could truly be called a hero. I could only hope that I would handle adversity of this magnitude with as much dignity and class as you have. Justin I say this with all sincerity, you truly are "My Hero".

You just keep getting better little buddy.

Justin,
We have about ten inches of snow. Dave & Jake went snowmobiling with Uncle Pat, Jan, and Bryce yesterday. Jessica gets to go today. Almost every school is called off today. (except ours that is) We miss you and we love to see the new pictures every day. Your mom sure does a great job of keeping everyone up to date on how you are doing. I can't believe how many people have came to your website. Today Lynette and Lauren will be there. I bet you are all excited about that.

HI all, sorry to read about the "bump" in the road, let me just say, your apologizing for seeming negative is like me apologizing for needing to breath. The time it takes to sign this guest book and keep all of you in our thoughts and prayers compares to a second of your day. It's great to come to the site and see that Justin has had a good day but when the day hasn't been so great your dissapointment,worry,or any other feeling could never be looked down upon. Praying harder.

I am so glad to hear that each day gets a little better! Your stromboli looked great! I am one of your Grandma's cousins from New York--and it was 25 below zero yesterday morning. That's way too cold for anything. I live on a farm and even the cows were cold. Glad you were riding a chair to get inside quick on your way to clinic!

Hi Justin- I thought I wrote to you yesterday, but I must have clicked the wrong button! I have been so tired since I got back from Hawaii that I've been doing a lot of goofy things like that! Anyway, I am SOO happy to hear that you are back at the Ronald McDonald House, up walking around, and having some fun. That is just great! I told a friend of mine, Max, about you- he is from a tiny little island in Micronesia called Yak. Isn't that a funny place to live? (don't tell Max I said that!) He is going to write you a letter because he loves to canoe race.
I hope that you and Ashley have fun with the stuff from Hawaii- we thought it would be fun to have some things from some place different. We had a great time there and are planning to move there for the summers so maybe you will come visit sometime with your grandpa! We would love that.
Keep getting stronger every day- I'm so proud of you!
Love, Kathy

HELLO JUSTIN!! All the stories sound like things are going well. That's great! I am up the Mississippi River a couple hundred miles from where you are, in the town of Bemidji. Ask Grandpa Bob, he stopped and stetched his legs by Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox here, during his canoe trip this spring.

Grandpa Bob maybe has a record in the canoe, but it sounds like you have a record in the pill taking department. What a strong guy you must be to do all that work of taking pills! Keep up the good work!

I went bowling today and all of those ladies asked how you are doing. They all miss seeing you at bowling and can't wait until you can come back there and see them. You will even get to pick what you want from the candy machine and the snack bar. Won't that be cool? I hope you are driving Mom, Dad, Ashley, Grandma, and Grandpa crazy. I wish I was there so you could pick on me. I'm working lots so I can come and see you again soon. Love you.

Hi Justin Liz and I just got back from Calgary - Canmore -Alberta - Canada with a visit to our grandsons. 3 families met . we went skating on the pond . The tempeture never got above 25 below. 3 days we went for a ski. 2 days we went with the dog team. There was 6 dogs - Malmutes very large but friendly and good pullers. We road on the dog sled then we hooked 3 dogs up to my grandson Kenzie and myself and they pulled us on skies. It was a very fast ride but we did stay upright. It was a good Christmas holliday for all of us. Hope you are getting better . your friends Bob and Liz Vincent.

Justin,

I hope things work out well for you and they let you get out of the hospital as scheduled. The Ronald McDonald house sounds like it might be more fun for you, but probably a bit more stressful for Mom, Dad and the rest of the family.

You keep your strength up, keep eating plenty, and do ALL the things that the Doctors tell you to do. You will remain in my prayers and never far from my thoughts.

Your friend.

Hey Justin: I am a friend of your Grandma and Grandpa and have been keeping up with your stay in Minnesota.

You are so cool, and look pretty strong on that bike for the BIG break from the hospital into a nice little cozy apartment with the family. Mom and Dad are excited, I'm sure, to be bringing you over to the Ronald McDonald house, and Grandma and Grandpa will be there to cuddle too.

At least it will save you a call every morning to tell them to get their 'Butts' over to the hospital, ha...

Have a GREAT day, and I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

Love, Bonnie Riley

Hey Justin,
Did you know that in the last picture, the one where you are resting after riding your bike, your tongue is the same color as your shirt. We went to Dave's game last night and everyone was asking about you and Ashley. Dave plays very well. He plays much better under pressure though. He made 3 three point baskets at the end of the game. The last basket he made was a half court basket. It was awsome. Eight more days and we will be there. Lauren and I can't wait. You keep up the good work on getting better. Our prayers are always with you.
Love, Lynette

Greeting!! My computer just found your exciting Guestbook. (I was using the wrong program earlier.) You are one handsome young fellow, and the green hair, WOW!
I know you are putting up a great fight and working hard, just as your grandpa did on the Mississipi River. You must have so much confidence with so many wonderful people pulling for you. You are the captain of your team at the hospital. We are all your cheerleaders and fans. The best part about your fans: they are all praying for you! And that means, you are well connected all around!

Hi Justin
This is your cousin Shelbie. I think about you a lot and can't wait until my grandma (Auntie Lil) comes to Michigan again, so I can come and visit. It has been cold here for the last few days. One morning it was -23 below zero, and this morning it was -9 below. Now it is snowing like mad and there is supposed to be 10 new inches of snow by tomorrow. You are probably used to cold weather like that in Minnesota. I had to stay in for recess yesterday and today at school. It was a real bummer. I love to sled down a hill at school. But the teachers said it was too cold to go outside. So we had to play in the gym. It was OK, but not as good as playing in the snow. Well Justin, I have to go and take a bath. You take good care of yourself. Tell your mom and dad hello and Grampa and Gramma too. Lots of Love,Shelbie
My Grandma & Papa send their love and especially prayers to you too.

Justin- Nice green hair dude! I wish my hair was as cool as yours. I don't know you yet but I met your Grandpa Bob at the Ausable Canoe race a few years ago. I'm a good friend of your Gramps friend Verlen Kruger. I am praying for you and hope you are feeling better. Im sure that place doesn't have very good pizza, popcorn, or mac and cheese either maybe someone will sneak you in a few treats. I wish you the best and glad to see you have a lot of support from family, friends, and stangers like me. I know that with positive thinking,determination and teamwork by the staff and friends it will be very helpful to you. I will add a link to your web site on my own site and maybe it will bring more awareness for your cause and help with support. In a couple of months I will be paddling solo from St. Louis to the Pacific retracing the route of Lewis and Clark. Not sure if you know who they are yet but they worked as a team (like your hospital staff) and made many discoveries and accomplished their goals too (Just like you). If you like drawing pictures while there and feel like drawing one for me one of lewis and clark I will post it on the web site for other kids around the country to see your artwork. www.lewisandclark-2004.com I will be thinking of you and wish you all the best. Take care little guy!

So that's a little about me and I hope to see that you get lots better and get to come home real soon. Any way, just so ya know one of my daughters has had her hair pink and even purple, maybe someday you can ask her out on a date!
Be well.

Hey, Justin! We're so glad to see that you're Walking the Halls! I like Mr. Bill's idea of drawing on your mask -- like fangs or mustaches, or something else really neat. Be sure to show us if you decide to do that. ... Captain Stan is getting ready to canoe in the WaterTribe Everglades race in Florida, so he's getting excited. He wants to be sure and let everybody know about you, Michael, and Amanda when he goes down there. Maybe you and your family can come up with some good ideas or a "team name". Captain Stan will be paddling with a guy named Porky! Sounds like they'll have a lot of fun, huh! ... Well, you just keep eating and walking and you'll be fit as a fiddle in no time! Give everybody a hug for us! ... Love & Prayers, Dana & Captain Stan

I'm off to work today after Christmas holidays.....not exactly looking forward to that....but I'll still be checking in on you all the time!! I'm wondering if we'll still get your news after you leave the hospital? I know Ronald Macdonald houses are great, but I don't know about computer access? Maybe mom or dad can tell us in their daily messages!! Hope you have another great day kiddo!! Keep smiling !!!

Justin,

I'm very happy to hear that you are up, moving around, and getting out of your room. I'm sure you like that a whole bunch. Sorry that I haven't written in the last several days, I'm fighting a case of the Flu, even though I got my Flu shot early. Nothing like the aggravations you have to put up with daily, but a pain in the duff none the less.

I read that you have to wear those masks when you leave your room. Do you have any idea of how many cool designs you could draw on those masks? Fangs, mustache, Billy Bob Teeth, all kinds of stuff. The mask must be a little bit of a pain so have soom fun with it, if thats OK with the Doc and Mom and Dad.

Some of your Moms messages mention that your not eating as much as you could. You need to chow down when you have the chance, if you want to be as strong as your Dad and Grandpa.

Just remember you are never far from my thoughts, stay strong little buddy.

We were getting very excited because they said we were going to get a ton of snow tonight so we thought that maybe we would get a snow day tomorrow, but I think that they have changed the forecast and now we are only supposed to get a few inches. So I guess it's back to school for us. Are you still doing your school work? You better be. I know that all your friends at school miss you. I will tell them tomorrow how well you are doing. They have gym class tomorrow. What game do you think we should play? Maybe hockey because I know that is your favorite. I can't wait until I can come and see you. Love you lots!!!

I hope you get better soon...You will be in my prayers from here on out...If there is anything that I might be able to do, please do not hesitate to email me. I will try my best to at least put a smile on your face. Take Care

Justin - You make a great HULK!! My grandson loves the hulk too. He has the same great big green hands like yours but his dog Oreo chewed up one. Boy was he mad at her. I love the picture of you and your dad. You guys look just alike except maybe you are better looking. I wish you a full recovery and will add you to my prayers. I know your family loves you very much and is so proud of the way you are fighting your illness. Keep on keeping on.

Justin I am a police officer with the Department of Veteran Affairs. My name is Jason. I think you are way bigger than hulk and that you should have played the part of hulk. I believe God has something special for you Justin. You just keep talking to God and He will always listen. God bless you Justin.

Hello from Toronto , Ontario, Canada
Justin, I just was visiting Lance Armstrong's site and thought I too would drop you a line. I hope your hav'n an o.k. day today. I too have done the chemo thing and yes it's rough. My chemo didn't make my hair green though, nor my hands...Must have tak'n something different. Now thinking about it maybe I should have asked for pink hair chemo.... I'm a grade 7 teacher and my students think that homework is the worst thing ever. They have no idea that being sick is the worst thing. I do hope your on the mend and I'll be think'n of ya and sending you lots of positive energy and love. All the best little guy.

Hi Justin and family, just a little note to say Hello from the Legg family. We hope you all had a very Merry Christmas and we pray you keep getting better. Hopefully, you can soon take that walk in the halls and look at something other than the 4 corners of your room! We love you and pray for you, Jennifer, Eddie, Adam, Alex, Joshua and Celine.

Hi Justin!
I read about you in the "Lance Armstrong Guestbook". I hope you're doing well!! I wanted to write and tell you and your family to just take one day at a time and say lots of prayers because God does listen! I know cancer can be a very difficult thing to deal with. My little brother (he's 16) was diagnosed with a germ cell tumor (in his chest) on November 2nd, 2003. He had to have emergency surgery at the Children's Hospital in Milwaukee, WI and is now going through chemo. Andrew, along with the rest of my family, has been very inspired by Lance Armstrong. Anyways, I hope you are doing well! Keep your head up high and stay positive! You will get through this :)

A big 'Howdy' to you,Justin, from West Texas!!
I sure do hope that you are feeling good today...and that you will continue feeling good & getting stronger .
A friend of mine sent me your Caring Bridge page, and since I am always so curious, I decided to take a look.
Sure am glad I did...Seeing that 'Hulk' picture of you made my day!
I read where you will be going to stay at the Ronald McDonald house for a while during your outpatient therapy.
I gotta tell ya,Justin,....Ronald McDonald houses are Fantastic!
When my youngest son was sick, we stayed in one at Galveston, Texas. Right near the ocean. The people are always sooo nice, and of course the kids that are staying there are all 'SPECIAL'....just like you.

Ya know, Justin, I am just an ole' grandma here....But I think sometimes with age comes wisdom.(Or, at least when you get older you 'think' you know more...) Anyway, whichever it might be in my case,... I think that the 'Man upstairs' must be thinking that you and your family are extra special people.
I think he must have a lot of plans for you in the future. Maybe even helping kids just like yourself.
Who knows....but....wherever your future takes you....know that you touch many people everywhere you go. You become a part of their life, and they become a part of yours. Even if it is for only a second.....a quick 'Hello', or 'Bless you', can change a person's day, week, or life.
And know that indeed...you are special.

I will keep you & your family in my prayers

Dear Justin, My name is Susan Morris and I love canoe racing. I live in New Hampshire and today it is snowing. I do not know your dad, but know he is a great canoe racer. I love your picture. You look great in green. I actually saw those Hulk hands in the store and couldn't resist trying them on but I didn't buy them because I have two dogs and they would probably love to chew on those. Please know you are in my prayers and I hope to meet you and your family soon.

Hey buddy,
Happy New Year. Our new years eve just wasn't the same without you here. I just read what Lauren wrote to you about making brownies. Let me tell you, you better be glad that you weren't here to eat her brownies. I don't know what her and Dave did to them but the center of them was just like eating the batter out of the bowl. She is not a cook, but as her dad would say, she is cute though. When you come home we will have Michael make you brownies, his were good. You take care of yourself.
We miss you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Justin,
Wow! You have got alot of friends pulling for you to get healthy and strong!I just heard about you yesterday so if you wouldn't mind add me to your list of paddling pals pulling and poling for you.

You see Justin, part of the reason people push themselves hard racing boats or skiis (this time of year in New England) is to get healthy and strong. It makes us feel good and happy to push the limits of what we think we can do.
Even though it hurts sometimes when you train and race hard pushing with all your might, we know it makes us better. Personally I think it's fun!
Now---- YOU DO THE SAME!
Best Wishes for a Healthy New Year!

Hauoli Makahiki Hou Justin!! (that means Happy New Year!)
In Hawaii they shoot off TONS of firecrackers on New Years. Sometimes there are so many that the next day the streets are all red from the papers around the firecrackers! It's very loud right now, but it's kind of fun too. We got some firecrackers and shot them off down at the beach. I don't think I will stay up till midnight (although it is already midnight where you are so maybe that counts!) because I am going paddling at 6am tomorrow.
I hope you keep feeling better!
Love, Kathy

I am so happy that you are feeling better but I am very, very upset that you wouldn't talk to me on the phone. So I have decided to return your Christmas present since you are a little stinker! Ok maybe I will keep it this time but you had better talk to me the next time I call!!! I love you buddy

I heard you have a signed hat from Lance Armstrong,he is a very strong and special person who knows what it`s like to be very sick and then recover to be stronger and fitter than ever. You can do it too. Tonight I`m going to pray to God for you so he will give you strength and a full recovery.

He brought me a home theater system so I can watch DVD's and it's like being at the movie theater. Santa also brought my two dogs, Dodger and Diesel big bones to chew on. They were very happy.

Well, I should go but I wanted to say Hi. Tell your Dad I said HI too!

I am sorry that you are not feeling very well. I sure hope that fever goes away soon.
I think you look very grown up with your shaved head. And I really like your Superman pajamas!!!
Things are quiet here at our house. Especially since David is hardly ever here. He is at Lauren's a lot - maybe he is just going to make sure everything is okay at your house, what do you think?
You are in my thoughts and prayers all of the time. I sure hope you feel better soon.

I know it sucks but you are VERY brave and you just hang in there. We are all thinking of you and everyone out there. So let everyone know we send our love and prayers. Get some rest and get rid of that nasty fever, okay?

Howdy Justin,
Your green hair looks waaaaay cool! And you know, if you're allowed to get around, you can make alot of friends with your hair. Kids will take one look at you and say "Duuude! That's awesome!" Green is just like army colours. It's strong and puts up a fight. So with hair like yours, how can the germs do anything but run? Stay strong. :)

Hello Justin
I got you details from the Lance Armstrong guestbook. Hope you are feeling much better.
I am 32yrs old and I have breast cancer which had spread to my back, neck, lung and liver. I also had broken my back. Now I am back on the mend. The cancer has gone from my back, neck and lung and I have been out of my body brace and neck brace since September. Stay positive, you can fight it!

Hi Justin-- I'm very sorry to hear you're not feeling well! You must be pretty sick of that, but I hope that you are a lot better today!
I am writing from my "home" in Hawaii. This is where I grew up and it is so much fun to be back! The part of Hawaii I lived in is "ranch country" and does not look tropical like most people think of Hawaii. It is all green hills and lots of cows and horses, goats and chickens. We went horseback riding one day! Then we went camping in a rainforest for two days. Today I think we will go to the beach. A friend of mine is a good outrigger canoe racer and he is going to take me paddling with the whales!! I can't wait to do that, but he has to work today so I'm not sure when we'll go.
I hope you feel better today- ask your Grandpa to send me your address and I'll send you some postcards so you can see what it looks like here. Then ask your Grandpa to bring you for a visit when you get better!
Love, Kathy

Hi Justin, Sorry that you're not feeling so well. I think you look pretty funny with the glasses on. So do you think that you will stay up to midnight on New Year's Eve? I don't think mom will let you. Maybe you could talk Ashley into staying up with you. Marissa and Kate want to stay up but we told them they will have to do it alone. Me and Uncle Chuck are too old!! Have a great New Year's and say hi to everyone. Love,

Yo, Justin! Your new pinball game looks like it is a lot of fun -- and quite a challenge. And that spiderman outfit is cool, too. Doesn't quite match up to the Hulk, of course, because nothing can beat that Green Guy! But the "monster truck slime ball arena"? ... Well, I think you can keep the slime, if it's okay with you.... Have a good time on Sunday. Just think, I only have one more day and then I have to go back to work. hoo boy, what fun.....

Justin,

I hope your Christmas was everything you wanted it to be. Did you get to see Santa at the hospital Christmas eve? I guess Santa was busy this year, he came through our neighborhood early Christmas morning. My dog Argus woke me up growling at about 3:00 AM. When I went to investigate, what he was growling at, I found several presents under our Christmas tree and some of the milk and cookies gone. Darn it, I missed him again! I hope you had better luck than me.

Justin, tell Grandpa that your mail arrived today, and I want to thank you for helping to make my Christmas special. I will not forget this Christmas nor you for your kindness.

Let us all pray for a wonderful New Year.

Stay strong little buddy.

Remember that Jesus loves you and is praying for you, and so are Captain Stan and I and a whole bunch of other people. Please give Ashley, Mommy, Daddy, and everybody else a big HUG and KISS from us. {{{ huggles }}} Dana

Hi Justin,
You don't know me, but I raced against your Grandpa Bob in the Yukon River Quest in 2002. (And I got my butt kicked!!!) I learned a lot from your Grandpa and his partner, and I'm a better racer now for having gotten beaten by them, and if I would've won that race, I never would've learned those lesson they had to teach.
I wish you all the best in getting better, and taking what you learn from all this and being able to kick some butt of your own. I'm pulling for you, and I wish you a Merry, Merry Christmas. You take care, Justin!!!!

Your Friend,
Brandon Nelson

Thinking of you Justin and the rest of your family this Christmas Eve. I'm glad to hear you are tiring your mom out. It means you feel pretty good. Why don't you tire out your Grampy Coggins, he could use it. (ha ha) I love all your pictures, keep them coming. Hope you all have a nice Christmas. I miss you.
Love,

Hey ya Justin!!!!! I love your green hair and the mohawk. Been thinking i need a new do, maybe i should copy your hair. heehee. My name is Malvena. I go by Maggiblue on the net tho. I am a mom, cept my baby is 24 y/o now. And i have a sweet little devilangel grandson in the midst of the terrible two.s, His name is Austin and I love him more than words can say. I bet exactly how your friends and family feel about you! I am from Vancouver, Washington, right across the river from Portland, Oregon. I am working 1000 miles from home right now so won't be seeing my family for Christmas, but you can be sure I will be burning up the phone lines calling them. I work nightshift and I am a nurse. I deliver babies so tonight, Christmas Eve I am wearing my long johns cuz I am sure I will be busy flyin around with the storks delivering bundles of joy, nothing like new babies for Christmas.. I hope your Christmas is wonderful and I hope your feeling okay. I am sooo sorry you are sick and i will say prayers that God smiles on you and lets you stay here a long while more. I hear heaven is a pretty great place too, with lots of clouds to play on and lots of loving people to make your days special and love and watch over you. But I do hope you get well and stay with your Mom for now. Tell your Mom Merry Christmas from me too. You are both in my heart and I will be praying for you both. I care lots!!!!!!!! Keep that beautiful smile on your face and make sure those nurses treat you right. I just betcha you are their very favorite patient though, I just have a sneaking hunch, being a nurse myself. Hey let me know what color of green hair dye I should buy and who cuts your hair:) Peace to you Justin. With lots of love, Malvena Goetz aka Maggiblue

Justin,

Just a little note to let you know I'm still thinking about you and to let you know I think you look KOOOOL with that new hair cut. Not every guy can wear that kind of haircut and pull it off, but it looks GOOD on you.

I hope Santa brings you everything you've asked for this Christmas little buddy. I'll bet there's a chance that you might see him sneakin' around the corridors of the hospital tonight if you keep a close lookout.

Well I gotta go, lots of things to do today, but I do want to take a moment and wish you and your entire family a very "MERRY CHRISTMAS!"

Mr. Bill

In all of the Christmas hustle and bustle and stress I had a good chuckle when I clicked on your site and saw a smiling green haired boy!!! very cool!!! I'm not sure how old you are but I wanted to tell you about my boy, his name is Tyler and he is 11, he will be 12 on December 30. He has diabetes which means he gives himself 4 needles every day, I think you and your entire family are very brave!!! I know it's hard to smile some days when your heart is hurting. I wish you and your family a very merry Christmas!!! Ty and I look forward to coming back to see what Santa brings you for Christmas.

Hi Justin! I've never Emailed anyone with green hair and chin wiskers before. We paddled with your Grandpa and Grandma last spring on the Buffalo River in Arkansas. Those green hulk-muscles are pretty big but they will never be as fast as your Grandpa's. Unless they were camping we never got to see anything but the stern of their canoe, cuz they were always ahead of us! We are sending you a special Christmas Gift that was "secretly" given to us one night on the Buffalo River. We've never known for certain who gave it to us, but we think it was your grandparents. It carries within it the strength of the endless river. Watch for it in your mail! Merry Christmas and we hope you feel better while at the McDonald House. You will hear from us again.

It's not nice being sick, but there's always someone special to make us realize what life's all about, that someone special is you! My baby has diabetes, so I know what it's like living each day not knowing what's going to happen, just makes you care more. We wish you the very best , be strong and hang in there little buddy!

Hi Justin! I am another friend of Deb's. We have a very big group of good friends from all over the world in our Yahoo lounge. It is a pleaure to visit your website and add to your guestbook. When i saw your green hair, it reminded me of my son, who dressed as the Hulk on Hallowe'en. He even had green skin! He is 22 years old and very muscular. The girls thought he looked great. He didnt tell them he had green knees and elbows for a week. The stuff was hard to wash off!

Hey Juddy, how are you doing? I'm going to bring Mega Man X7 for the PS2 so that we can play it together when I come up to see you. (I'm on the last level) Maybe I'll bring the car game that you like too. (twisted metal black) I can't wait to see you the day after Christmas.
Love you,

I am sending you a letter but I will probably be there in person before it gets to you. I hope you are drawing lots of pictures in that book that I sent to you with my mom. Try to fill it with drawings of things that you see while you are in the hospital. I can't wait to see you. All of the kids in my class at school want me to tell you hi.

Hey Mr. Bratboy, how are you feeling today? I hear that the sores in your throat are not so much fun. I know how brave you are though and I bet you are being extra tough, just like the Hulk. I can't wait until the day after Christmas when I will be back in Minnesota to see you. My arm and leg are all recovered and I'll be ready for you to show me how much you love me again.
Love you buddy,

Hi Justin,
A friend told me for Christmas you would like people to sign this book. I have 2 little boys myself and I am willing to do what I can to help another. I hope tomorrow is a better day for you and maybe Hulk will come down your chimney with presents OR is that Santa that comes with presents. Wishing you and your family all the best this holiday season.

Hi there Justin,a very good friend told me that you like to have everyone sign your guestbook!! It just so happens I love to sign peoples guest books.I live just north of you in frosty Winnipeg.I am sorry you are not feeling well,but we can only go one day at a time. I have added you to my prayers now.I happen to know the angels watch over us at Christmas and all year long,but I seem to feel them nearer now that Jesus's birthday is almost here. Stay strong like the Hulk you so resemble.

I love you. Wish we were there with you to enjoy your new toys. Looks like you really know how to build with them already. Say Hi to Grammy and Grampy for us. My friends are doing this for me and if you would like to e-mail me at any time you can do so at: boofer1@comcast.net.

It has been very cold here. Frost every morning for the last week... Brrrrrr......But it is supposed to get warmer during the next few days. Hope it does because Tammy and Dave and the kids are coming down for Christmas. The kids don't know they are coming yet and it is supposed to be a surprise. they are not telling them until they get in the car and are on their way....Sounds like fun huh? It probably will be hard for them to have Christmas without snow, but maybe Papa will dribble soap flakes off the roof so they can think it is snow....yuk yuk Also we have no chimney so Santa will have to find another way to slide into the house. Maybe we will just have to leave the door unlocked. He will get awfully hot down here in his suit so we will have to leave him a Coke and cookies not the usual milk and cookies.

Thinking of you every minute, and again, we love you. Write soon to us.

Hi there Bradfords, the Bourdeaus send warm wishes your way. Annalise led prayers last night and Justin was in the limelight. Speaking of limelight, she is not thrilled with the green hair -haha! Hope today is a better day, that's all you can do - right? Gabe came down with a fever yesterday so I think my last minute shopping plans may be no shopping plans, but we'll see! You should get your letter soon. Love the Bourdeaus.

Hello Justin, I was going to try to get up to the hospital to see your GREEN hair. It looks GREAT. I have been checking on you through your parents. You may not remember me, I'm the lady that has the little boy that has blonde hair and it is curly. I have blonde hair and it is long and thick. Zachary has been doing so well after his surgery, we are getting to go home Sunday. I am going to keep in touch with you through caringbridges. I hope your stay will be short and sweet. I know you will have to stay 100 days but maybe not much more after that. Goodluck and you are in our prayers.

Dear Justin,
Did you get the Merry Christmas picture from the Kindergartners? We all miss you and pray for you every day.
It is good to hear that the itching is getting better. That must not be fun. I love all of the key chains you made - they look so pretty all together.
Well, school is over for a few weeks. Everyone is excited about sleeping in a little, but we are mostly excited about the coming of Jesus! I am sure that He is right by your side during all of your hard times - I hope you can feel His presence.
On Wednesday the Kindergartners, first and second graders were great in the Christmas play. They were all dressed up like angels, stars, wise men, shepherds, bells, and candle - And, of course, the Blessed Mother and St. Joseph. They sang songs about Christmas Bells and Away in a Manger. Some of the big kids recited poems, played the piano, and sang. Some of the teachers (including me) sang in a little teachers' choir. It was fun, but we missed you.
On Friday we had a little party. Mrs. Rasberry came and the kids made presents for their parents. I am sending a present for you to give to your Mom and Dad. I know they will like it. It probably won't be there on Christmas Day, but remember that there are 12 days of Christmas!
Our family will be praying for you every day - we hope that you have a wonderful Christmas Day! God bless you - say hello to your Mom, Dad and Ashley for me.
Love, Mrs. Houbeck

I hope you get well really soon, and I hope maybe you'll come to the AuSable canoe marathon this summer and I will get to see you. I was out with my greyhounds, Zelda and Tippy today and told them to run a race for you. They did-- you should see how fast they are!! I'm not sure who won, they were so fast.

Ahoy mate!

Justin, it sounds like yesterday was a good day and a bad day for you. Good that you received your transplant, bad that you had to go through the high fever and hives. Well I hope the worst of yesterday is behind you.

I have a question for Justin. When your Mom or the nurses give you that bad tasting grog to drink, do you still say "Arrrgggh!" like a good little pirate when your done? I was sitting around yesterday thinking about your doing that last Spring and it brought a smile to my face. One of life's tender moments.

Well, stay strong little buddy and I hope Santa fulfills all of your wishes. Talk to you again soon.

Justin,
Well here I am back in Michigan and back to my "stupid work" 'cept all I can seem to think about is you, your sister, your Mom, and your Dad. I miss you like crazy already. My favorite present is going to be coming back to Minnesota with Jake, Jess, and David and see you all. I printed the picture of you and your mohawk and took it to work to brag about how cool you are to all of the people there. They could tell from the picture that you are the coolest six year old ever. My arm and leg still feel bruised from how much you love me. When you are all better and feeling super strong again it will be my turn to show you how much I love you. I think that I love you even more than you love me. Remember to pick on your dad, mom, and Ashley for me, that way they won't even notice I'm not there. Give Ashley a wet willy and tell her it's from me.

Hi Justin,
My name is Jim and I used to work with your Grandpa Bob. We miss not seeing him every day so we're glad you get to see him alot. He's a pretty fun guy. That green hair you had was pretty cool. You need to get Grampa to paint his head green to match.
Good luck with your transplant and hope you feel better real soon.

Justin, "The miniature green haired pirate"

I LIKE YOUR "DO"!! That green hair looks good on you dude. I've only got one ear ring and here you are with two already. Way cool!! Your hair reminds me of a British movie made in the 1940's or so called, "The Boy With Green Hair". If you ever get a chance you should take time and watch it.

I was looking at your photograph and laughing to myself. You have hair on top of your head and none on the sides, I have hair on the sides and none on the top, now ain't that a hoot.

Justin tomorrow is my birthday and we all know it is your special day too. So I've asked all my friends and family that if they have any special thoughts, wishes or prayers for me, that they ask the Lord to bundle them all up and send them your way. I'll be thinking about you little buddy, stay strong.

Hi Buddy, the pictures look great!! What a smile! I agree with Lynette, your mom should dye her hair too. Since your dad and grampa shave their head I guess they will just have to "paint" their head green! Take care buddy and have a Merry Christmas.

Hi, Justin I'm a canoer also. I had the great privilege of paddling along with your Granddad and Clark for one day this spring from St Cloud to Minneapolis Minnesota. I know some day you will be as strong as those two. Last Sunday we paddled for two hours on the Mississippi River. We seen about one thousand " Trumpeter or Tundra" Swans. These birds are all white and about 5 feet long and have a 8 foot wing span. Those giant birds were flying all around us. The sounds were ausume. Some day you will have the thrill of seeing such a sight. Get well as soon as you can!!

Ahoy Mate! How's me little pirate buddy? Are ye still collectin' them thar ballast stones like we started doin durin' the Great Mississippi Challenge last spring? You had guite a collection of them thar rocks before the race was over.

I'm sure it feels like someone knocked the wind outta your sails about now but we all are expectin' you to be ship shape, your sails full of wind, and you to be flyin' right along afore we know it.

December 18 will be a day we both will remember. You will be receivin' a great gift, and it will be my birthday. But I want you to know that you will be in my thoughts and prayers that day. Hang in there little buddy, maybe we can skip stones on the water again some day.

Hi Justin!

Just wanted to send you a friendly "hello" from Mary and Clark from the East coast. Clark was your granddad's paddling partner down the Mississippi about 6 months ago. I've seen many pictures of you and your mom and dad and family from that trip! You remind me of our own son, Noah, who is your age.

I'm glad you are able to share your hospital stay and pictures with all of us - I almost feel like we are there with you :-). I hope you feel better soon! I'm going to keep checking your website and will think best thoughts and wishes for you and all of your very kind family.

Take care,

Hi, Justin,

My name is Gareth. I'm another one of your Grandpa's many friends. I make magazines about canoeing. The next one will have more pictures of Grandpa and Clark, and tell the story of the people who helped them when they paddled on the Mississippi River.

I spent today with my wife (Lucy) and my two dogs (Gracie and Tess). We mostly worked at our computers, let the dogs in and out of the house a hundred times, and warmed up again, sitting by the fire (and putting more logs on it) !

Good luck with the transplant. Lots of people will be thinking about you, praying, and wishing you the best.

I look forward to meeting you one day.

We all send our love,

Gareth

Hi Justin, I met your Grandpa and Grandma on the Mississippi river challenge last spring. I also met your cousins, my little girl who is 4 had a fun time playing with Jessie. I also have a girl who is 10 and has Rett Syndrome. I will be following along on your website to see how you are doing each day and saying a special prayer for you too. I live in Minnesota, about 3 hours north of where you are in the hospital, at least you are used to this cold weather we have here. Keep building those towers, you sure are good at it. Take care!

Hi from Dorchester Ontario. Hope your doing OK. I was out paddling and trimming trees today and fell in the river from a very high tree. The water was deep and cold!!! I went back to the hot tub and that felt Great.
Bob and Liz Vincent <bob_liz.vincent@sympatico.ca>
Dorchester, ON Canada - Saturday, December 13, 2003 2:10 PM CST

Hi Justin- I loved that tower you built! Do you like legos too? I think legos are really cool. My son, Greg, loves to build with them. I think I met you in Michigan when you were there to watch your Grandpa and Dave paddle in the Ausable. I paddled with Lynne and we spent all night racing with your Grandpa and Dave. That was my favorite part of the whole race.
What else do you like? Dogs? I have two greyhounds that used to be racing dogs. We adopted them and now they are couch potatoes! They are very spoiled. They still love to run though, so we take them to a big field where they can chase each other and pretend they are still race dogs! Tippy is the oldest one- she really likes to win the races, but it is hard for her now and Zelda is getting faster. They are good friends though, so I don't think they really mind who wins.
I hope you are doing well and being strong. I know how strong your Grandpa is, so I am sure you are too.
Love, Kathy

I am sure you will do just fine. Trust in your mother and father and grandpa and grandma. They love you and will do everything they can to make you strong again and get you out playing with your friends.

When you are feeling bad just remember that everyone loves you.

I bet your Grandpa wants to get you out paddling!!

I didn't know you played basketball. I remember throwing the football and playing last summer on the river with you. I also remember the way you waved those big orange flags so your Grandpa knew where we were. If you hadn't done that for us we couldn't have set the world record!!! I remember seeing you guide that big ship while we were following your Grandpa. If you become a river boat captain when you grow up will you take me for a ride in your boat? Gosh I hope so.
