hmmm - last guestbook message for 2010...wish that on this bittersweet time of year for all of you I had YOUR wisdom, knack for warm/fuzzy/profound comforting words...However, what I lack in those areas - I truly compensate for in sincerity...As such, at this very bittersweet time of year I so wish all of you health, happiness and many many Brentism memories to comfort you during yet another ^angelversary^ time and the start of another year. I hope that the tears shed are mixed with smiles remembering the many wonderful times and special moments spent with Brent. His legacy lives on in many hearts! XXOO-Love, Randy and "the boys".

When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned ; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. For I am the LORD thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour

Hi - thinking aboutcha and wanted to check in. I was just talking about Brent yesterday when spending time with my neighbor/friend. I was telling her all about special Brent and his loving family and how your faith keeps not only your memories alive but your hopes for the future strong and filled with your forever love for Brent...at least my version as per your sharing:). As you know too well, some days are just harder than others for a mom's heart and being in the park surrounded by little ones made our memories of our "boys" childhood bittersweet! And, truth be told, we were glad that she brought ^Johnny's^ dog so that we weren't just two creepy/weepy old ladies at the park on a sunny day! XXOO-Love, me

God's Lent Child
I'll lend you for a little while a child of mine, God said,
For you to love him while he lives, and mourn for when he's dead.
It may be six or seven years, or forty-two or three;
But will you, till I call him back, take good care of him for me?
He'll bring his charms to gladden you, and should his stay be brief,
You'll have the lovely memories as a solace for your grief.
I cannot promise he will stay, since all from earth return;
But there are lessons taught below I want this child to learn.
I've searched the whole world over, for teachers kind and true;
And from the throngs that crowd life's lane I have chosen you...
Now will you give him all your love? Nor think the labor pain?
Nor hate me should the angels call, to take this child back again?
To which the parents did reply...
Dear Lord, Thy will be done.
For all the joys thy child will bring, the risk of grief we'll run.
We'll shelter him with tenderness,
We'll love him while we may...
for all the love this child will bring,
forever grateful we will stay.
But should the Angels call for him,
much sooner than we've planned,
We'll brave the bitter grief that comes,
and try to understand.

My pretend niece is traveling - an organic mission for nine months - and continues to be out and about in your neighborhood...or close. Currently she is in Tennessee - but in very primitive farm territory and from the pictures I am again reminded sweet friend - it is NOT May! However, I DO know and totally appreciate you are a VERY busy lady...just wanted you to know that you were on my mind and in my heart! XXOO-Love, me

Please know that I am thinking about you during this holday season. I would like to share this special prayer with you.
Dear Father who art in Heaven...
Please join our family on this Thanksgiving day
And bless each one as we sit down to pray
As we remember those who have joined You above
So dearly missed and deeply loved.
Please provide us strength on this Thanksgiving day
Bless us with memories of those faraway...
Please grant patience to family and friends as we grieve
And help us reach out to others who are bereaved.
We give thanks to You on this Thanksgiving day....
For Your presence in our lives each and everyday.
For Your comfort, guidance, and never ending love...
And for taking care of our loved ones...in Heaven above.
As we light this candle on this Thanksgiving day...
And it glows in memory of those in Heaven today....
May their lights always shine down on us and give us light...
And may we feel their presence along with Yours tonight.
May the peace and tranquility of this Thanksgiving day
Be an everlasting light within each of us along the way...
Lets bow our heads and give our Thanks to God above..
For our blessings, whether on earth or in Heaven above...
Amen

II Corinthians 12:8-10 For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me. And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.

For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds. Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin.

Hi - me again - saw this quote some time ago and wanted to share it with you when the time "seemed" right??? Uggg...wish there was a proper to do and not to do protocol to follow for sending giant cyber hugs of love & support....anyway - hope just knowing that we are thinking of you, Brent and your "boys" help.
“Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal”.
I know Brent left some pretty special footprints in your heart and of all those who knew and loved him close up and from afar - and it is my "hope" that all of those wonderful, special and very real memories bring ALL of you some comfort when you are missing Brent the most.
XXOO-Love, me
P.S. Jarred had class on Chili's designated donation night- but Brent's pepper was made in advance when all of us were at Jarred's & colored and donated in Brent's name.

Hi Tonya & "boys"...Have not forgotten about you - just seem to really be struggling trying to get out of my own way these days...More than usual.
However, have been thinking about all of you and wouldn't let the day go by without sending love and good wishes to Brent, Gabe & Zach's very special dad, Link.
Although it is hard to say Happy Father’s Day when it is so bittersweet, but surely Link deserves/needs to be recognized and acknowledged for the awesome guy he is.
I have gotten pretty good at plagiarizing (always admitting it though) and keeping a look out for things that I think are incredibly meaningful (from my heart) but not in my words on other kids caringbridge/care page sites…. Thought Link would prefer short and sweet coming from “me” for a change instead of my normal stressed babbling!
“Life brings tears, smiles and memories.
The tears dry, the smile fades but the memories live on forever.”
With Love and special thoughts of all of you….

Hey Tonya,
Thanks so much for the update! I know this is hard for you.
It just seems like "yesterday" I met you and your precious family. We were one of the many blessed families that got to know Brent.
Gosh, you can "try" to describe how special he was, but you would have had to see him to witness this. Words just can't justify.
We miss Brent so much, especially ANY time we come to St. Jude. So many memories here. For us, it was all GOOD ones. (Praise God...)
The last time we saw Brent, Link was bringing him in for an MRI, Jordan and him were in the back together. Even though he wasn't feeling great that day, he had the sweetest smile and his attitude was so GOOD.
What a special young man he was. You are right, he's just away, and soon we will all be together again.
Sorry to ramble on, couldn't resist when I saw you had updated.
LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.

1. I know that my Redeemer lives;
What comfort this sweet sentence gives!
He lives, He lives, who once was dead;
He lives, my ever-living Head.
2. He lives triumphant from the grave,
He lives eternally to save,
He lives all-glorious in the sky,
He lives exalted there on high.
3. He lives to bless me with His love,
He lives to plead for me above.
He lives my hungry soul to feed,
He lives to help in time of need.
4. He lives to grant me rich supply,
He lives to guide me with His eye,
He lives to comfort me when faint,
He lives to hear my soul's complaint.
5. He lives to silence all my fears,
He lives to wipe away my tears
He lives to calm my troubled heart,
He lives all blessings to impart.
6. He lives, my kind, wise, heavenly Friend,
He lives and loves me to the end;
He lives, and while He lives, I'll sing;
He lives, my Prophet, Priest, and King.
7. He lives and grants me daily breath;
He lives, and I shall conquer death:
He lives my mansion to prepare;
He Iives to bring me safely there.
8. He lives, all glory to His name!
He lives, my Jesus, still the same.
Oh, the sweet joy this sentence gives,
"I know that my Redeemer lives!"

So cleansed by Christ, I fear not death.

And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.

Hey Tonya,
I signed your blog, and thought I come on over here to Brent's page too.
It only seemed like yesterday our precious buddy went to his REAL HOME! A place he was so ready to go.
I'm so grateful for all I learned as I watched Brent faced so many battles. I've never seen a child so brave and so full of faith.
He was so pure in his love for Jesus, and truly in the end days I believe he was granted his greatest desire, to see the Lord! (still gives me chills)
Anyhow, I'm thinking of you today and your family. I'm remembering, and I'm giving THANKS TO GOD for the purposes and plans he had for Brent.
My life will never be the same.
Sending lots of love your way, and hugs too.
Your friend,

A brand new year stands before us. Sometimes a new year is very hard to face. Other times a new year is welcomed with open arms, with hopes that it will be better than the last one was. However you look at it, know that every day of this new year is in the Lord's Hands. He's already there waiting for you with open arms. And I'm here praying as always.
And saying tons of extra prayers as you face all the memories of today and tomorrow.....

Two years ago today I got to meet you, Link, and your beautiful Brent. Before meeting him I had always thought that caring or loving someone was easy. I have learned that sometimes it is not so easy and that love comes with a price that your heart pays by breaking. But what a blessing that meeting was for me! My heart is broken but it will heal thru Christ which is where meeting you all has led me. It is broken but it still loves anyway. It is broken but blessed all the same and I thank you for sharing such an amazing person with the world. Praying without ceasing for you.

Hey guys,
I know Holidays can be the worse. We lift you up in prayer. This beast must be cured. It knows no bounds but our God is great and will let man find a cure we all live for that day. I remember walking down the hall one day with Link and he said to me I pray you never walk down this road. Now I know what he meant. Westin our grandson 4 years old has now relapsed with this disease. he has cells in leg and shoulder. We began chemo here in Memphis this week. AS you guys know the doctors give you the worse case outcome but we believe the report of the Lord. I write you guys to say you have been a real inspiration to us as you walked your journey. Your faith has always remained strong. You guys were the best examples as parents as we see. Julie and Joel are doing ok but they are in the fight mode and so are we. Pray for us.
Love
Paw Paw and Mi Mi Miller

Holidays can be hard for so many different reasons. Saying extra prayers right now.
Colossians 3:15-17 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.

Hello!
I am very sorry to hear about the loss of your son, but just always remember that he is totally pain-free, and he is healed for ever, and some day you will be back with him. He sounds like he was an amazing young man and I am sure he brought great pleasure to your life while he was here, and I hope his memories continue bringing you joy.

Guess a New Year's Resolution should be to once again keep updated b'day calendars. Happy Belated Birthday Tonya - I hope it was as WONDERFUL and as SPECIAL as you. Now like every other whinny brat I am going to blame Grammy Susan - who has spoiled me with early updates on Jordan's site of special events/milestones and BIRTHDAYS-LOL. Seriously and sincerely, lots of hugs and good birthday wishes...which brings us to Happy Thanksgiving to ALL the Nasons. No matter how large or small the gathering, just know and feel that everyone will be bringing to the table a little piece of Brent in their hearts and so many special memories in their heads. And, I am also guessing a few of his favorite recipes for their stomachs. For each day, holiday, family gathering please know that Brent is still loved, missed, thought about - and that extends to his wonderful family too. XXOO

Tonya,
I still check Brent's web site often, and each time I offer up a little prayer for you and your family. God has used Brent and his life to touch so many people who feel like they have traveled along with him in part of his eartly journey. His battle with cancer brought not just the Mathiston community, but a nationwide Christian family together in concentrated prayer in a very unique way. The Nason family's faith has been an example to all and the prayers offered for you have been an instrument that has grown and deepened the faith of many. Every time we check this site, see our "Brent Day" fan, or hear someone mention the name Nason, we remember Brent and his witness for the Lord. His legacy of faith, hope, and courage will live on and on in all who came into contact with him. You will never know this side of heaven how many lives have been touched and blessed because of this young man with a giant faith. Thank you for sharing the miracle that was named Brent with all of us. We pray that God will continue to strengthen your faith, give you the 'peace that passeth all understanding' and bless the entire Nason family. We haven't forgotten and we are still praying.
In Christ,
Ginger

This month is a big one for us as it is for your family... We are remembering him with you! I had shared his story with my family(Mom, Dad, and sisters and Nana) and Nana went home to be with the Lord on June 25th of this year... I am so sure that she is there to give him a hug if he needs it- she thought "his eyes looked angelic" when she saw pictures on this site over two years ago- even when he was really sick- his eyes always sparkled!!! I love you all and we still pray for your family - we have a picture of all of you on the fridge! Have a great week! ~Kate

Happy birthday Brent!
As a teenager, you may feel too old for balloons, but the last time I had a birthday while Mamie was here, she was very particular about having lots of balloons, so I expect she's keeping the archangels up tonight inflating them for you.
I know you will enjoy seeing who wins the birthday drawing. I hope that, if I should happen to win one, my prize will be given to someone who needs baked goods more than I do. (I have an allergy to that sort of thing - it makes me break out in fat.)

When I share this passage I normally only include verse 4 but this whole section is really good. Continuing to pray!!!!!!!!!!!
Revelation 21:2-5 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.

Hi, it's just me snooping and looking for those promised pictures...not to fear - I will be back. Very sweet of you to continue on Brent's giving mission in his honor and memory - but each time you update, share a memory of Brent & your boys/his brothers, Brent continues to share. I hope you feel that too. Brent and his sweet ways captured a piece of many hearts (can you just imagine his blushing at that comment?) After all, how many other boys have an entire parade honoring him? Yes, I am full of Brentism's myself and it is ALL from your being generous enough to "share" - like Mother like son/sons??

I keep meaning to make some of the bread but have never done it. I would love to try it! I usually make zucchini bread because that is what our family loves but maybe a new favorite is in order. My kids will probably want it warm with marshmallows on it, HEHEHE.
I had never seen the photo of his shopping trip that I can remember. It is nice to see it and hear about his generous heart. Kevin, my son who brought me to Memphis to see you all ended up getting a cast on his wrist the day after Zach's came off. He was on the hood of a car and fell off when a co-worker decided it would be funny to drive with him on there and then slam on the brakes. He ended up flying 20 feet, breaking one wrist and spraining the other so he is unable to do anything for himself right now.

Hi - looks like the birthday cookie was a "huge" success. I can't believe that the yummy aroma didn't get Zach's attention even before the visual...
And, really dust - no dust was visual - and EVEN if it may even been three - you could have just blamed it on the camera lighting:)if you felt the need to make us all look for it...this is not the forum to wear our white gloves and inspect your housekeeping - that you over compensate for with your baking!!!

Ephesians 1:17-20 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places...

I've been sending out an email daily with selected Scripture passages. If you'd like me to add you to the list just let me know at prayingprayerbear@gmail.com. If you ever want off the list, just let me know. This doesn't mean I'll pray any less. Will always be praying!
Psalms 18:1-3a I will love thee, O LORD, my strength. The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower. I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised...

Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

I somehow forgot Blessings in my list of things beginning with B that I am thankful for. I have been blessed with so many things and unfortunately just like everyone else I sometimes forget just how blessed I am. Thank you for giving me yet another chance to count my many blessings.
Susan Foster <CLF8987@aol.com>
Troy, MO USA - Monday, October 6, 2008 9:51 PM CDT
Thanks for the "B" Gabe! Here are the B things I am thankful for:
Brent!: Your beautiful boy made all my doubts about the existance of God completely disappear. Brent taught me to appreciate each day and "Thank the Lord for everything He has given me." I will never forget him saying that during our visit, it really brought everything into clearer focus for me.
Beauty: God has given us so many beautiful things to discover and enjoy!
Belly laughs: I love to see my kids and the people I care about really enjoying themselves and Belly laughs are so contagious!
Believing: As I said before, I sometimes had doubts. I much prefer to just believe and rejoice in that.
Brad: My oldest son. He is 21 and still has a way to go before he is where he needs to be, but he is a joy to me. They never stop needing guidance I guess.
Ballads: I love a good ballad!
Birds: Hummingbirds are my favorite, but finches and so many others catch my attention as well.
Babies: who doesnt love and thank God for babies?!
Being a mom: I have 4 beautiful kids, Brad 21, Kevin 18, Christian 10, and Grace 6. I am also mom to Max, a shepherd/chow mix 9, Ace, a siberian husky 2, and Jake, mini schnauzer, 6 mos. and angel puppy Casey also a mini schnauzer who was 12.
Being a friend: I treasure my friendships.
Baking: Yesterday I got the two younger kids to clean their rooms with a promise of chocolate chip cookies. I ended up making a double batch. YUM!
Being able to buy our first house this year. The housing crunch allowed us to buy and then the door closed so we know we were very lucky to buy when we did. Our new home is beautiful to us.
Baskets: EMPTY laundry baskets that is! It is a rare thing to catch up on all the laundry around here!
Big smiles: need I say more?
Baby dolls and Barbie dolls: I love to see my daughter nurturing her baby dolls and getting her older brothers to play barbies with her, hehe...
Boundaries: without them there is no civilization.
Basements: more space for our large family to spread out and a place to go during storms.
Beginnings: new beginnings after making a choice to live a better life full of Christ.
Beds: A nice warm comfy bed after a full day of family and friends.

Hi - well NOW I finally know how to hear from you more often - as soon as I disappear for a few days - you explode with updates. Love all the new pictures - I for one am extrememly impressed with your photography skills, all that cooperation (with the only bribe being ice cream means you so got away easily) and just how beautiful your guys are! What a cutie your little niece is too - how incredible that you have nieces and nephews living so close to enjoy at every age. Nice that the boys have such great cousins - and each other! Thanks for all the sharing - can't believe you were even able to come close to finding a favorite - they all look great to me and my antique film taking favorite camera - which still has film in it cause my guys are not as cooperative or even around enough to capture a moment - just do their laundry!!!

Hi - days go bye and you are quiet....then I get a spontaneous/rare visit from both my "boys" (aka lots of incoming laundry and cooking aka care packages) and you turn into Chatty Cathie (are you even old enough to remember the first talking doll?)
Anyway, perspective - glad Zach only has a cool green cast (and not during the hot summer when it would really cramp his style)and that none of the doctors, etc. ever saw the picture of him riding his 3 or is it 4 wheeler or wrestling in the leaves. I am kinda taking Zach's side on this one...stuff like that can happen anywhere.
As for the picture of Brent, loved tripping down memory lane...sometimes those memories help as much as they hurt..but in a good way. What a sweetie your Brent, so special - you can see it in his eyes, his actions/arm around his brother and hear it through all your loving words and sharing.
As for your green thumb...interesting and certainly conversation pieces:)
And lastly (for now LOL) thanks for spreading and sharing the link for the quick & easy fund raiser for the kids. Reminded me that a company type of thing simimlar is how I even met you. Flashback - I found a Hershey Ice Cream online fund-raiser. You share it - send it - add a message and they donated 25 cents. After I sent one to Brent, and you loving mother checked it out to make sure it was on the up and up, then contacted me. The rest, is shall we say - history. Maybe the Hershey Ice Cream connection is why every singe time I see anything for Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream it reminds me how much Brent enjoyed his special sweet treats and just as much how very much he loved sharing them with those he loved! Have a good weekend. XXOO-Love, me

Psalms 86:1-7 Bow down thine ear, O LORD, hear me: for I am poor and needy. Preserve my soul; for I am holy: O thou my God, save thy servant that trusteth in thee. Be merciful unto me, O Lord: for I cry unto thee daily. Rejoice the soul of thy servant: for unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul. For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon thee. Give ear, O LORD, unto my prayer; and attend to the voice of my supplications. In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee: for thou wilt answer me.

Psalms 34:6-10 This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles. The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them. O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him. O fear the LORD, ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him.

It happens... You've also had a lot of YOUR PLATE these last few years with Brent.
The main thing is you did get to spend so many wonderful years with her and have made memories for a LIFE-TIME. She has obviously made an impact on your life and your relationship with Jesus.
What an honor it must of been to have her in your life!!
What a celebration there was in Heaven that special home-coming was.
One day we'll all be spending eternity together, worshipping the KING of KINGS and LORD OF LORDS!!!

(know what mean) That scripture is so useful in today's world. I have seen evil repayed with evil way to many times in my life time. South Florida is # 1 in "Road Rage".

Dear Tonya - Since school in your house is officially in session - thought as your elder I'd give you some homework. You are going to be graded (I might have to have some on site assistance/input with Zach & Gabe) and I am expecting it to be refrigerator hanging worthy. Now, here is the challenge. You are to start giving yourself credit for being the wonderful, incredible, warm, and loving lady that you truly are. You are to remember that you did everything (and then some) for not only Brent during his battle, but for your entire family. Keeping the family a family during a cancer battle is a major job in and of itself. Your commitment - to all your "boys" - that includes Link:0) and exposing your little guys to Brents', courage and amazing smiling spirit/attitude (and his many friends)during his cancer battle will in fact make them honor Brent always and be better, more sensitive, caring men! You may be new at gardening - but you have been nurturing for quite awhile my friend and you have amazing results as evidenced by your beautiful family by adding YOU magic touch/incredients of love, faith and hope. XXOO-Love, randy

This is the second half of the hymn "Abide with Me." The words are so comforting. Know that I'm still here praying!
5. Thou on my head in every youth didst smile,
And though rebellious and perverse meanwhile,
Thou hast not left me, oft as I left Thee.
On to the close, O Lord, abide with me.
6. I need Thy presence every passing hour;
What but Thy grace can foil the Tempter's power?
Who like Thyself my guide and stay can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, oh, abide with me!
7. I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless;
Ills have no weight and tears no bitterness.
Where is death's sting? where, grave, thy victory?
I triumph still if Thou abide with me.
8. Hold Thou Thy cross before my closing eyes,
Shine through the gloom, and point me to the skies.
Heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee;
In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me!

1. Abide with me! Fast falls the eventide;
The darkness deepens; Lord with me abide.
When other helpers fail and comforts flee,
Help of the helpless, oh, abide with me!
2. Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day;
Earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away;
Change and decay in all around I see.
O Thou, who changest not, abide with me!
3. Not a brief glance I beg, a passing word,
But as Thou dwell'st with Thy disciples, Lord,
Familiar, condescending, patient, free.
Come not to sojourn, but abide with me.
4. Come not in terror, as the King of kings,
But kind and good, with healing in Thy wings;
Tears for all woes, a heart for every plea.
Come, Friend of sinners, thus abide with me.

Hey Tonya,
I'm at Kristin's tonight. We are attending a Beth Moore conference, (via internet) at a church this weekend. It's been awesome.
Made me think of YOU and what a great time we had at Deeper Still.
Missing my buddy and thinking of Brent as always.
Love you,
Susan

Hi - Just thought I would check in - love all the new photos & your new earthy type tid-bits you add - when you update. You always tease about being a Redneck - but now I think you are more like the Green Jeans Family! All this green thumb gardening. Just remember that you can't make chocolate chip cookies and all your other famous specialities with all those healthy veggies - we believe in carbs and sugar (sometimes too much LOL).
Speaking of which, I guess some of my favorite memories that you shared about Brent had to do with his love of sharing/giving and over all sensitive personality. Your ice cream stories and his joy of receiving or giving "treats" always seemed so simple and yet so reflective of your sweet boy. That being said, do you know that Sunday - July 20th is NATIONAL ICE CREAM DAY? Really - not kidding. I don't think I ever knew before that a special day was designated to ice cream - but, honest and truly - I saw that on the calendar and in the newspaper ads and Brent came immediately to mind. So, if you have no other special plans for the 20th - I suggest you plan a ice cream party -large or small - and know that Brent's sweet ways continue in lots of hearts - lots of zip codes - and in so many ways! And just remember, ice cream sundaes, the kind that brought smiles to Brent's cute little face, were topped with bright red cherries - not a green bean! Keep enjoying the summer and trying to keep up with your guys - sounds like all the activities are the "tired" you most enjoy! XXOO-Love, me

We sang this hymn in church this morning and I wanted to share it. Am still here praying!
"My Hope is Built on Nothing Less"
by Edward Mote, 1797-1874
1. My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness;
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
But wholly lean on Jesus' name.
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand.
2. When darkness veils His lovely face,
I rest on His unchanging grace;
In every high and stormy gale
My anchor holds within the veil.
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand.
3. His oath, His covenant, and blood
Support me in the whelming flood;
When every earthly prop gives way,
He then is all my Hope and Stay.
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand.
4. When He shall come with trumpet sound,
Oh, may I then in Him be found,
Clothed in His righteousness alone,
Faultless to stand before the throne!
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand.

Hi - you SURE do keep yourself busy - and obviously you are the "fun" aunt/mom to be around. You have the best of both aunt worlds with the age differences - Ashley to share and bond with as a friend and your little munchkin to snuggle and enjoy and then return....
I know that your sharing Brent is so difficult at times and bittersweet for you - and I am glad that Link was a wonderful shoulder to cry on - but for Nason family fans all the Brentisms are wonderful and not sad....except for the obvious in wishing there were more. I believe that there are cyles and waves of good days and bad for the memories - and please don't ever think that it is sad for you to be sharing Brent. He was a very special boy and we ALL know that out of sight is not out of mind or heart! Take care and try being a little bit kinder to yourself - remember you just took a major step when you traveled back down memory lane to Tennessee to revisit some of Brent's favorite places/friends. Brent continues to give you strength and confidence each time you honor and share him! XXOO-Love, me

Dear Tonya, As I sit here reading your update I do it with tears filling my eyes. I am just so blessed and inspired each time I visit Brent's site. Your faith and your love for your Lord is just a blessing to me. I continue to pray for each of you as you go on your journey of life without Brent but I know that you find comfort in knowing that he is pain free and in a much better place than we are and best of all; you will see him again someday and can join him in rejoicing at the feet of Jesus. May God continue to bless each of you is my prayer.
Love in Christ,

He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

Dear Sweet Tonya - Once again you opened your heart, faced your fears and walked tall in Honor and Memory of Brent - with EVERLASTING LOVE! I know and so appreciate how hard returning to some of Brent's most difficult yet most loving and secure areas was for you - but I am so glad you decided to spin your sadness into a labor of love. I won't say "I told you so" but I will say, as we expected - Susan was right on target (insert hug & smile). What a wise an wonderful friend - whose heart knows yours oh so well! And, making your friendship even more special is the love you share linked through your boys! It is my sincere - most heartfelt hope - that some of those very same difficult memories, now bring you peace and comfort whenever you need it the most! XXOO-Love, me

If thou, LORD, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand? But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared. I wait for the LORD, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope. My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning. Let Israel hope in the LORD: for with the LORD there is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption. And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.

Yikes - critters! Coming from another "boy" mom - this one from the suburbs though - over-reacting is your "right". Have to admit that turtles aren't too bad, frogs - not really a fan, but the mind spin is at least your guys are not housing snakes!
Wow Tonya - when you decide to go for green thumb you use both hands. What an undertaking! And where were your little farmers with a full plow hooked up to their mud cars to help with the crops???? Did I ever tell you that we put in a circular drive with full court basketball to conceal our lack of interest in gardening ourselves or big bills to have a professional do it? The boys and their friends loved it! In any case, your before and after pictures show just how much elbow grease you put into your project. And you have so much land - enough for a healthy section including fruits and vegetables and if Zach and Gabe were industrious they could set up a munchie stand to reward you and your helpers with ice cream, cold drinks, cookies and candies. Instant satisfaction while enjoying watching the fruits of your labor grow. And, after all that work, hope you treated yourself to a long bubble bath and made an appointment for a pampering manicure:). You truly deserve a little "me" time for you - as unfamilar as that may be! Sending you a big - giant HUG - XXOOa

A good woman is hard to find,
and worth far more than diamonds.
Her children respect and bless her;
her husband joins in with words of praise:
"Many women have done wonderful things,
but you've outclassed them all!"
Charm can mislead and beauty soon fades.
The woman to be admired and praised
is the woman who lives in the Fear-of-God.
Give her everything she deserves!
Festoon her life with praises!
Thanks for being such a great example of this Proverbs woman!

I'm glad you are keeping your self busy. I can't wait to see pictures of your garden, I bet it's beautiful!
Sending lots of love your way.

Tonya, Link and Boys
Oh my heavens it has been forever since I have signed the guestbook!! I have continued to read but have not signed lately and just didn't realize how long it had been. With the kids all graduating and going to college and out on their own, the empty nest syndrome has set in, so with that thought I have been going through all the foster parent classes in order to become a foster mom to a little one that needs alot of love and attention, so that has really kept us busy not to mention putting together a baby room (now that was awesome to tell the truth, tons of fun for me not so much for hubby I think). I will be thinking of you on Mother's Day. And our thoughts and prayers are with you always.

But Zion said, The LORD hath forsaken me, and my Lord hath forgotten me. Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee. Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands...

I can imagine how upset you must have been to have thought your computer ate all your photos. Neil was having the same crisis here, but with his accounting files. He has color coded back up jump drives for most of his work, but every once in awhile he gets cyber freaked. Last night he was actually on the phone with the Phillipines (tech support) and they were running the scans through their "wires". In his case it was hours of stress too - but "rumor" has it the drama has passed. As far as the memory/photos/childhood treasures - my brother makes copies and sends them to my mother just in case of fire or some other tragedy. Apparently "worry" is genetic in my family!!
Appreciating how bittersweet Mother's Day is for you, I do hope you will manage some smiles and joy while savoring the memories of your beautiful Brent and cherishing every minute with Zach and Gabe. XXOO

Allie Grace is absolutely beautiful! I know your entire family is excited. Several years ago, I did a study on the word "adoption" in the Bible and I was amazed at what I found. Just to know that our Heavenly Father chose to ADOPT us and make us His very own children continues to blow my mind! Sorry, it has taken so long for me to write again...so much has happened. I did make it to Washington and witnessed my son, Ben, get married to the love of his life and then hugged him one last time before he was deployed. I never can get use to that "last" hug as they call it. You and your precious family stay on my heart and I continue to thank God for His carrying you through this life until we all get to heaven! I covet your prayers for Ben these next 3 months. He was able to call one night and he sounded good....just missing his new wife. I think I have been de-moted...and that's okay. That's the way it is suppose to be. He now calls Olivia first, then me. I had 2 days to get to know her better and I loved every minute of it. Also pray for them especially being newly married and apart. Continue to stay wrapped up in His love and His Word. In Christ, Piper

Out of the song in my heart.

Hi - haven't had much of a chance to gather my thoughts (a project in and of itself these days) as I have been busy "trying" to help Neil. Actually one of my best skills is playing "body guard" and shielding Neil from the ongoing calls/interruptions/and unreasonable requests so close to the April 15th deadline. I get to play bad guy in the good guy/bad guy roles:) Anyway, just wanted to tell you that since you know I can't multi-task - help Neil and keep current, i.e. respond to emails & check on the kids - I picked the kid category - will write to you soon. Loved the new pictures of the boys, but I do have a question - were you in another car taking pictures? playing in the mud with the boys and just not sharing? I am so confused - suburban style vs. redneck LOL - I did enjoy the kids new pictures - all except for the ramp and the bikes - too old & too nervous for active boys and their wild side:) Waiting to see you snuggling in "pink" Feel better quickly - you have some spoiling to do ASAP - XXOO

I am the mother of three boys and my sister who has a 12 yr old son and has never wanted him to be an only child is now expecting her 2nd gift from God - due early in Sept. We are hoping for a girl (the things I could do with pink............) but given so long of hoping we'll take whatever God gives her and be SO thankful for that. Your faith is truly inspiring, thanks for all of the encouragement you give to all of us in our walk in faith - God truly is working his magic through you ( and your angel Brent before)

Just me again checking in - looks like Allie Grace is giving her new family a crash course on parenting - i.e. "The Worry". The important thing, of course, is that any possible health problems be identified and addressed, if necessary, so that the celebrating can begin! Please keep us long distance worriers updated....so we can tell you "We Knew it was going to be fine all along"! Maybe a little "pink" shopping will make the time tick quicker?XXOO

I just read your update. I am hoping & praying that
all will be just fine with little Allie Grace. You're
right- a heart murmur is not a serious thing- Stanley
has one- sometimes it can be heard & then again they
can't find it. (must be really faint). Please let Elizabeth
& Jason know I am praying for them right now.
God Bless!

This hymn has always been very special to me. Always makes me cry, too.
Praying right now!
"I Know that My Redeemer Lives"
by Samuel Medley, 1738-1799
1. I know that my Redeemer lives;
What comfort this sweet sentence gives!
He lives, He lives, who once was dead;
He lives, my ever-living Head.
2. He lives triumphant from the grave,
He lives eternally to save,
He lives all-glorious in the sky,
He lives exalted there on high.
3. He lives to bless me with His love,
He lives to plead for me above.
He lives my hungry soul to feed,
He lives to help in time of need.
4. He lives to grant me rich supply,
He lives to guide me with His eye,
He lives to comfort me when faint,
He lives to hear my soul's complaint.
5. He lives to silence all my fears,
He lives to wipe away my tears
He lives to calm my troubled heart,
He lives all blessings to impart.
6. He lives, my kind, wise, heavenly Friend,
He lives and loves me to the end;
He lives, and while He lives, I'll sing;
He lives, my Prophet, Priest, and King.
7. He lives and grants me daily breath;
He lives, and I shall conquer death:
He lives my mansion to prepare;
He Iives to bring me safely there.
8. He lives, all glory to His name!
He lives, my Jesus, still the same.
Oh, the sweet joy this sentence gives,
"I know that my Redeemer lives!"

I serve a risen Savior, he's in the world today,
I know that he is living, whatever men may say,
I see his hand of mercy, I hear his voice of cheer,
And just the time I need Him, He's always near....
HE LIVES, HE LIVES, CHRIST JESUS LIVES TODAY,
HE WALKS WITH ME, HE TALKS WITH ME,
ALONG LIFES NARROW WAY.....
HE LIVES, HE LIVES, SALAVATION TO IMPART,
YOU ASK ME HOW I KNOW HE LIVES,
HE LIVES WITHIN MY HEART.....

Luke 24:44-47 And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me. Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures, And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day: And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

When I was thinking about today this hymn came to mind immediately so I wanted to share it. Know that I'm praying!
1. There is a fountain filled with blood
Drawn from Immanuel's veins,
And sinners plunged beneath that flood
Lose all their guilty stains.
2. The dying thief rejoiced to see
That fountain in his day;
And there have I, as vile as he,
Washed all my sins away.
3. Dear dying Lamb, Thy precious blood
Shall never lose its power
Till all the ransomed Church of God
Be saved to sin no more.
4. E'er since by faith I saw the stream
Thy flowing wounds supply,
Redeeming love has been my theme
And shall be till I die.
5. When this poor lisping, stammering tongue
Lies silent in the grave,
Then in a nobler, sweeter song
I'll sing Thy power to save.

I do remember your stories, and I especially remember him praying over YOU. What a sweet heart!!!
Oh, the rewards this child is receiving, and the Glory he is in now. One day sooner then we all know, we will BE WITH HIM!
Oh what a day that will be!!
I'm so blessed the Pancake breakfast went well. That was so sweet of your dad and all those who helped out.
I pray for you everyday Tonya, and especially now during Easter. What a day for Brent to accept Christ! Now he is with the RISEN Savior!!

of the past,
to the blessings and the laughter,
the joys and the celebrations,
the sorrow and the tears.
They all add up to a treasure
of fond yesterdays
that you shared and spent together,
and they keep the one you loved
close to you in spirit and thought.
The special moments
and memories of your life
will never change.
They will always be in your heart

Psalms 73:23-26 Nevertheless I am continually with thee: thou hast holden me by my right hand. Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me to glory. Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee. My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever.

Hi Tonya,
I just saw your update from Friday and I wish that I had seen it sooner. Don't worry about bringing us down! You are loved no matter what you are feeling at the moment. In fact, that is what I admire about you...your honesty!!
I saw a video on Sunday that made me think of you and a couple of other people that have recently experienced loss. It was a Nooma video called the Storm. The message of the video was that even though we are devastated by the storms in our lives, that is when God pulls us close and treasures that intimacy with us. I am not doing the video justice, but I truly did think of the Nason family.
((((((HUGS)))))) and ALWAYS prayers,
Stephanie

Ahhh, Tonya, how special! What a song, and that picture of Brent...
What a sweetie that boy was. I just loved the way he loved his mom, his brothers, dad, and what ALWAYS got me, and still gets me, is how much HE LOVED HIS LORD!!
This child was able to peak in and see things many adults have never experienced. When I think of Brent, the scripture that comes to mind is in Matt. when it it says, "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall SEE God." This child was always seeing Jesus, and before he left this planet, he actually got a glimpse of God's glory, oh...it give me the goose bumps everytime I think of it!
Tonya, we miss him too. It won't be long, we will all be together doing what God created us to do, worship HIM!
Thanks for sharing the song and the pictures!!
miss you and can't WAIT to see you again!Your crazy buddy,

Lamentations 3:21-26 This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope. It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness. The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him. The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him. It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD.

Tonya,I found your blog from cwo blogs and sat up until two this morning reading about Brent. I lost my youngest son on Dec. 6, 2006. He was 3 mo. old. He spent the last two months at LeBonheur (I live in Olive Branch, MS). We miss him like crazy, but are praising our wonderful savior for healing him from a horrible disease. He was diagnosed with a rare seizure disorder called Ohtahara Syndrome the week of thanksgiving 2006. The past couple of days have been a little emotional and when I found Brents CB I was reminded of Christ wonderful grace and mercy that I receive everyday. Our little Jacson had a CB as well. Maybe I will write some more on it sometime. I am praying for you tonight. Thank you for sharing Brent's story.

Ephesians 2:4-9 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.

I truly admire the special bond and friendship that you have with Susan Amato. It is special, something that does not come along very often. Both of you have helped strengthen my faith, and have given me hope during my own loss (I am angel Timmy's mom).
Thank you for sharing the details of your visit to Susan's for her birthday. I know how much having you there meant to her. I am sure it was her best birthday present by far!
Take good care of yourself Tonya. You are a beautiful woman. Know that another angel mom thinks of you often.

How did Link handle ALL that quiet??? By the way, I vote that you and Susan find a compromise location and both move closer to each other -- maybe in a zip code that doesn't keep having EXTREME weather issues??? If it is not Mississippi then it is LA in our news! Once again, sure hope everyone is safe and sound and also glad to have gotten confirmation that Zach is feeling much better.

Hello Nason family,
I think that I've only posted a message in your guestbook once, when Brent passed away. I found Brent's site a couple of months before he passed and his story touched me. Your family's faith in god is amazing and I try my absolute best to do the same. I believe that god has put us on this earth to make a difference in the world and in people's lives. I, like Brent, am not scared to go to Heaven. If anything, i'm excited! I can't wait to meet our creator! Sorry... kind of rambling. I just wanted to say that your story, and your family has touched me greatly. I pray to god everyday and my faith in god only grows stronger. Well anyways, I just wanted to say thank you for sharing your story of Brent with everyone who reads his caringbridge. I can't wait to meet Brent. He seemed like an amazing kid. I continue to think of him and your family each day. God bless you,

Hi - Hoping that Zach is feeling good and that this is was the antiobiodic that saves the tonsils (if at all possible). If not, Brent taught us all how much a little ice cream perks up a rotten day - or numbs a sore throat - Right? So, the word of the week in your house is "NO" as it pertains to Motocross riders. Wow, the thought of that just makes those huge pile of leaves to jump in or mud wrestling sound so much more appealing. Well, don't forget to update us on Zach - and a little information about Gabe would be nice too:) XXOO

We are praying for you all - especially Zach right now. I have not been faithful in signing the guestbook often, but I have been a lurker (one that has been praying for you all) for a couple of years now. You all are such a special family and wonderful testimony to the Lord. I just feel for you all so much with the strep. Last year our family had 28 cases in 8 months. I had it 3 times (and I had my tonsils out years ago). We tried every suggestion given to us - no matter how whacky it was. It just finally didn't come back. Praise the Lord. We did treat the cat (smart that you are taking the dog) and started taking probiotics and antioxidants. Don't know what exactly helped, but it's gone! We will definitely pray for the strep to be out of your house and that Zach will feel better!

Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end.

Hello Tonya and all Nasons. Harold and I are praying for Zach to be clear of all infections and for you all to be able to find the source of the re-occurance of it. That has to be frustrating and scary at the same time!!!
I have discovered a singer of Christian music (mostly older songs) who I have never heard of before. He is Wintley Phipps. He has a CD out called "No Fear!" It is super. One of the songs is "Until Then" and the words are so good. It keeps on reminding us that this world is not our final home and that until we get to that home/home we are to keep on singing. This song REALLY reminds me of Brent and his singing during his last days on this earth. You need to hear this CD. Mr. Phipps is a Seventh Day Adventist preacher. He has a deep baritone voice and that CD is very good about nothing in this world being able to touch us since we are children of the KING.
Love you lots. Pray for you often.

Hi Tonya! I have been a silent "lurker" to your beautiful Brent's site for well over a year now but have never signed the guestbook before. I found your site through Angel Emeralds's site. She was in my daughters 5th grade class. I just wanted to tell you how much you inspire me every time I read your updates! Because of you I have learned so much about my relationship with GOD and I thank you for that!! I wanted to let you know that I can relate to what you are going through with Zach and his reoccuring strep. When my daughter Kayla was in 2nd grade she got her first strep infection. After about 7 strep infections in a row, she had her tonsils taken out and has not had another strep infection since (knock on wood)LOL!! She is now in 8th grade. So taking her tonsils out was the solution for us. I wish you the best of luck with your decision and I hope Zach feels better real soon!! Thank you again for helping me open my eyes to what is really important in life! Suzi Wood

Yuck - Guess Zach is young enough that if the tonsils have to come out it is less dangerous....but still Yuck! Maybe you just have to hit on the "right" antibiodic...I was on them for almost six months after Jarred was born and still have my tonsils. The ENT wanted them out - the pediatrician said I was too old.... You might want to gently question the fact that Zach isn't testing negative and then a few days later positive - it just isn't going away. Hmmm is it really the strongest antibiodic to be knocking out resistant strep?? In any case, it is a good excuse for cuddling and Zach accepting some MOM TLC...Hope he feels better soon, you get some sleep and the problem gets easily solved...I am sure by now Zach knows ice cream soothes a sore throat:) XXOO

Am sharing two verses today. The second verse is God's own interpretation of the first verse. When dealing with all the "floods" and vehement winds beating upon us, there is only One Sure Foundation. Praying so as you face these "floods."
Luke 6:48 He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.
1 Corinthians 3:11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

Hi - me again - I just had a feeling that you were SO blissfully relieved about the boys good "test" results that you would be back. I didn't know it would be medical AND academic updates though. Anyway, as long as we are in agreement to work on the "worry thing" together thought we might pool our resources and invest in some focus factor too. My "boys" think I need back up beepers when we are out because they claim I reverse without warning and their favorite new term of endearment to me is "Mom, focus and finish a thought". In any case, I am so so very happy that with all the sadness of missing Brent EXTRA - Zach & Gabe are happy, healthy, and keeping you on your toes....there is a lot of "boy" behind those beautiful eyes and smiles:) - XXOO

A Gentle Hug
A gentle hug is wonderful,
It sends a message clear;
That someone truly cares for you
And they are ever near.
No matter how much loneliness
Pervades your inner soul,
A gentle hug is well received;
It carries such a glow.
Your inner heart is warmed again
By the light of another's touch;
A gentle hug reaches out
And means so very much.
Let another's needs be filled
By a gentle hug thus given;
Warm their heart with your love,
Share a bit of heaven.
Gentle hugs filled with care
Are encouraged day by day;
Heal your heart and another's, too,
Give a gentle hug away.

Psalms 121:1-8 I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth. He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber. Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep. The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand. The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night. The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul. The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.

Ok - guility of checking back even though I know it is Saturday....you convinced me - all good news coming at once is best (Monday is the anticipated date)- hope you convinced yourself too - REALLY!
Also, while it is typical, sweet, wonderful you being you,I know reading Brandi's words are breaking your heart in a few more than two pieces. Just a little (or more) concerned about you as this is an extra vulnerable time for you (all the special dates and holidays) and how much it hurts to see another child you know and care for (and their family) suffer so. It boggles an intelligent mind and mine, too, to think how long this particular childhood cancer has been destroying whole families for so many years without being annihilated already! Maybe - hopefully - finally in the year 2008 - will bring big pediatric cancer improvements in treatment and long term effectiveness. What a concept!!! Anyway, just me babbling a bit out of love and conern. XXOO

Nothing today? No news at all?
Know that I'm still here praying!
Isaiah 49:13-16a Sing, O heavens; and be joyful, O earth; and break forth into singing, O mountains: for the LORD hath comforted his people, and will have mercy upon his afflicted. But Zion said, The LORD hath forsaken me, and my Lord hath forgotten me. Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee. Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands...

Another Year for Thee
Another year is dawning!
Dear Master, let it be,
In working or in waiting,
Another year with Thee!
Another year of leaning
Upon Thy loving breast,
Of even deeper trusting,
Of quiet, happy rest.
Another year of mercies,
Of faithfulness and grace;
Another year of gladness,
In the shining of Thy face.
Another year of progress,
Another year of praise;
Another year of proving
Thy presence "all the days."
Another year of service,
Of witness to Thy love;
Another year of training
For holier work above.
Another year is dawning!
Dear Master, let it be,
On earth, or else in heaven,
Another year for Thee!

Thanks for part 1 of the good news medical updates. So delighted that you are "comforted" by the fact that Zach is feeling better by way of brotherly bothering episodes LOL. Sorry that apparently you have to wait until Monday for part 2 good news....but you have been around the medical mill for long enough to know that HAD there been a reason beside being a nervous mom to worry - you would have been contacted regardless of it being a weekend. So, enjoy a germ free few days as obviously the antibiodics kicked in - give everyone new toothbrushes and lysol the strep away once and for all....XXOO-Love, me
P.S. If the strep continues - you might need to have the dogs tested - they are big carriers (even little dogs) without being symotomatic themselves.

Been praying so for you all day! And yes, with every update last year and your description of what Brent was saying, it was so obvious that the Lord WAS giving him a glimpse of his life to come! What a blessing that was for him and for you as you witnessed it!
Still praying!
Psalms 91:1-4 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust. Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence. He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

And, I'm lifting Zach up especially, and praying that that God will strengthen his immune system and bathe him in peace, along with the rest of the family.
Lifting you all up during this hard time...

Tonya - there you go again multi-tasking - missing Brent while at the same time so very worried about test results! Well, for the sore throat issues - I think a big giant Sundae Brent style will cover all areas LOL. Seriously, hope (and feel certain) that the tests results will be fine (I had strep for six months after Jarred was born and they still saved my tonsils and finally found an antibiodic that had some permanent strep removal for me). So although upsetting - not that unusual. Short or long update - please confirm that all tests results were negative for anything that you are allowing to creep into your panic zone...and I know that you are remembering, honoring and loving Brent just a little more than usual today (if that is possible) with some of the best and most incredible mom/dad soothing memories - while giving Zach and Gabe some extra TLC too. XXOO-Love, randy

Good Morning Nason family,
It only seems like yesterday (in some ways) that Brent went ahead of us.
I pray today will be better then expected and God surprises you with joy in the midst of your deepest sorrow.
I'm praying really hard for the boy's test results, and for Gabe to get over this virus. In Jesus name!
I want to share a portion of a devotional I received today, I thought it was so perfect for you:
"God's thoughts toward you are continual and uncountable. God Almighty, the one who holds the heavens in the span of His hand, the one who spoke creation into being, is thinking about you right now.
Not only is God the Father thinking about you, but God the Son is interceding for you. Hebrews 7:25 says, "Therefore He is also able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them."
God the Father is thinking about you, God the Son is praying for and interceding for you, and God the Holy Spirit is helping you as well: "Now He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God" (Romans 8:27).
God is for you. God is thinking about you. God is on your side!"
Yes, Tonya you are never alone, and today as you go to the doctor with the boys you got a great team praying for you, standing behind you and always there with you.
(And He's put you on so many people's hearts as well, gosh, you are just COVERED in prayer and lots of love!!!)
If God be for us, WHO CAN BE AGAINST us?
Love you bunches and bunches!!!!

These verses were part of my husband's sermon text today. This is a really good passage and speaks a lot to us all as we face a new year. Praying!
Lamentations 3:21-26 This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope. It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness. The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him. The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him. It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD.

Happy New Year Nason Family!
Just stopping by to let you know you are ALWAYS on my heart and in my prayers.
I loved the scripture David Jeremiah used this morning on his devotional:
"Unto You I lift up my eyes, O You who dwell in the heavens." Psalm 123:1
Yes, we do lift up our eyes to God always, and I pray this year we will more then ever before.
God has a work for us all to do, and He truly loves those who earnestly seek after HIM. Tonya, I'm talking to YOU!
Through all you have endured you have remained faithful. I know God is going to use everything you and your precious family have gone through to lead many to Christ.
I'm just so grateful for Brent. What a bright "LIGHT" he was to so many. He knew what He believed and was so ready to be where God was calling him.
I used this scripture last year, and want to share it again, this is Brent's testimony:
Heb. 11:13
All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance. And they admitted that they were aliens and strangers on earth. 14People who say such things show that they are looking for a country of their own. 15If they had been thinking of the country they had left, they would have had opportunity to return. 16Instead, they were longing for a better country—a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them.
Now, Brent is living in that city God prepared for him, and one day soon we will join him there!
Blessings to you and your family as we always remember,
Susan

As the new year begins everyone's thinking about time and counting it down. So I wanted to share THE section of Scripture dealing with time. Praying as one year ends and a new one begins. Whatever this new year holds, the Lord WILL be with you! And saying extra prayers as you face this anniversary.
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away; A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.
