Hi Cynthia, Alyssa, Faith, Jamara & Marcus,
For "no particular reason" you and Brandon came to mind today, so thought I'd just stop by and let you know I'm thinking of you, and lifting you up. I'm not anyone you'd particularly remember, as I only sent a few cards, and once last year I sent a "do dad" with Brandon's name on it that I'd found.
Mostly just stopped in to let you know that even strangers continue to think of you and care.
Much Love and Warm Support,

Dear Mr. Hallmark,

I am writing to you from heaven, and though it must appear,
A rather strange idea, I see everything from here,
I just popped in to visit, your stores to find a card,
A card of love for my parents, as this day for them is hard,
There must be some mistake I thought, every card you can imagine,
except I could not find a card, from a child that lives in heaven,
they are still a parent too, no matter where I reside,
I had to leave, they understand, but oh the tears they cried,
I thought that if I wrote to you, that you would come to know,
that though I live in heaven now, I still love my parents so,
they talk with me, and dreams with me, we still share laughter too,
memories are our way of speaking now, would you see what you can do?
my parents carry me in their heart, their tears they hide from sight,
they plants flowers in my garden, there my living memory dwells,
they writes to other grieving parents, trying to ease there pain as well,
so you see Mr. Hallmark, though I no longer live on earth,
I must find a way, to remind her of her wondrous worth,
they need to be honored, and be remembered too,
just as the children of the earth will do,
thank you Mr. Hallmark, I know you will do your best,
find a way to tell them, how much they mean to me,
until I can do it for myself, when she joins me in eternity.


I know Christmas must be so hard for you although I can't comprehend how difficult it must be.

All my love,

Viks

LETTING YOU KNOW THAT YOUR THOUGHT OF ON MOTHER'S DAY.KEEPING YOU IN MY THOUGHTS AND IN MY PRAYER'S ALWAYS.



A Mother's Day Wish From Heaven

Dear Mr. Hallmark,

I am writing to you from heaven, and though it must appear
A rather strange idea, I see everything from here.
I just popped in to visit, your stores to find a card
A card of love for my mother, as this day for her is hard.

There must be some mistake I thought, every card you could imagine
Except I could not find a card, from a child who lives in heaven.
She is still a mother too, no matter where I reside
I had to leave, she understands, but oh the tears she’s cried.

I thought that if I wrote you, that you would come to know
That though I live in heaven now, I still love my mother so.
She talks with me, and dreams with me; we still share laughter too,
Memories our way of speaking now, would you see what you could do?

My mother carries me in her heart, her tears she hides from sight.
She writes poems to honor me, sometimes far into the night
She plants flowers in my garden, there my living memory dwells
She writes to other grieving parents, trying to ease their pain as well.

So you see Mr. Hallmark, though I no longer live on earth
I must find a way, to remind her of her wondrous worth
She needs to be honored, and remembered too
Just as the children of earth will do.

Thank you Mr. Hallmark, I know you’ll do your best
I have done all I can do; to you I’ll leave the rest.
Find a way to tell her, how much she means to me
Until I can do it for myself, when she joins me in eternity.

But A Moment

You'll always be my child-I think of you each day,
Even though you must remain so very far away.
A love as strong as this, I've never felt before;
But you had to go away-up through heaven's door.
You'll never have to suffer, or feel pain or hate,
just peace and love and happiness-
God has given you this fate.
I hope that you can feel just how much I care;
And, When my days are over, in a flash-I will be there.
Pure unbounding joy! We'll never have to part.
You'll be right by my side-And not just in my heart.
But, until that day, when my dream is real-
I think I understand, just how I should feel...
"Mom, I am fine!" this must be what you would say-
"Please don't be so sad, we'll meet again one day:
I'm with God above - so don't cry for me,
Our parting is but a moment compared to eternity."

AUTHOR UNKNOWN

Cynthia, my heart is with you all on your sweet Brandon's 2° anniversary. I remember him so very well, I remember his fight, his courage, his cheeky smile, his shiny eyes, his georgeous cheeks. And yet, I never met him, only in my heart. My heart is with you all, I will NEVER forget your Angel Boy Brandon. A very special hug to Alyssa; I am sure Brandon will be blowing your candles together with you, wishing you the best of wishes ! Hugs, Lol

The Cord

We are connected my child and I,
by an invisible cord not seen by the eye.

It is not like the cord
that connects us til birth
this cord can't be seen
by any on earth

This cord does it's work
right from the start
it binds us together
attached to my heart.

I know that it's there
though no one can see
the invisible cord
from my child to me.

The strength of this cord
is hard to describe.
It can't be destroyed,
it can't be denied

It's stronger than any cord
man could create.
It withstands the test
can hold any weight

and though you are gone
though your not here with me
the cord is still there
but no one can see

It pulls at my heart,
I am bruised....... I am sore
But this cord is my lifeline
as never before..

I am thankful that God
connects us this way
a mother and child
death can't take it away!!!!!!!

A PRAYER FOR CHRISTMAS


God Give Us eyes this Christmas
To see the Christmas Star.
And give us ears to hear the song
of angels from afar

And, with our eyes and ears attuned
for a message from above,
Let "Christmas Angels" speak to us
of hope and faith and love

Hope to light our pathway
When the way ahead is dark,
Hope to sing through stormy days,
with the sweetness of the lark

Faith to trust in things unseen
and know beyond all seeing
That it is in our Fathers love
We live and have our being

And love to break down barriers
of color, race and creed,
Love to see and understand
and help all those in need.

Lord, bless those we love this Christmas Day,be they near or far away Bless those good friends who mean so much and those with whom we're out of touch. We bring them all to You in prayer, and ask You to keep them in Your care.

Please know that you are thought of, in a very special way, not just this beautiful season but every day.

Wishing you all a holiday filled with warm and loving memories,joy and peace but most of all hope in the reunion that awaits us all in Heaven.

I see the countless Christmas trees
around the world below
With tiny light, like Heaven's stars
reflecting on the snow.

The sight is so spectacular,
please wipe away that tear,
For I am spending Christmas
with Jesus Christ this year.

I hear the many Christmas songs
that people hold so dear
But the sounds of music can't compare
with the Christmas choir up here.

I have no words to tell you
of the joy their voices bring
For it is beyond description
to hear the angels sing.

I know how much you miss me,
I see the pain inside your heart
for I am spending Christmas
with Jesus Christ this year.

I can't tell you of the splendor
or the peace here in this place
Can you just imagine Christmas
with our Savior face to face?

I'll ask Him to lift your spirit
as I tell Him of your love
so then pray for one another
as you lift your eyes above.

Please let your hearts be joyful
and let your spirit sing
for I am spending Christmas in Heaven
and I'm walking with the King.

May God bless you.

WHERE DO BALLOONS GO WHEN YOU SET THEM FREE???

Where do balloons go when you set them free??
do they float into the clouds or get stuck in a tree?
do they fly high in the sky or get popped by a bee?
do they soar witht he birds and the bugs in the air...
or stay close to the ground and get chased by a bear?
does the wind blow them out over the big blue ocean..
or do they climb up and over samll hills and big mountains??

Do they go out into space and circle the stars and then
fall back to earth after traveling so far??
or does GOD collect them all in a big bouquet and give them to the children in heaven each day??
where do balloons go when you set them free?
I hope they go to heaven as a gift for you from me!!


We went to a special event recently and were allowed to hear this poem. then we sent out one balloon for all all our angel friends...one name on each one. wanted you to know your little angel now has it.

always in our thoughts prayers and hearts..now and forever

"The Strength of an Egg"

Parents of children with cancer are often referred to or viewed as having "strength like a rock". Albeit flattering it is not quite true. It is more like the strength of an egg. An egg you ask? Yes!
If you'll think about it, you'll see my point.

An egg has a polished, smooth outer appearance, with no cracks or weak spots visible. It seems almost inconceivable that the inside might not be
as smooth or solid.

Most children, at some point, are shown the famous egg trick. An egg set at just the right angle can withstand enormous amounts of pressure and cannot be cracked or broken. Yet the same egg, tapped gently at an even
slightly different angle, will break. The contents, once so neatly concealed, will come spilling out. The no-longer perfect shell will be crushed. It looks so fragile that it seems inconceivable that it ever held any strength.

A rock, on the other hand is solid all the way through. To break it is almost impossible. If you succeed, you will find that there is nothing inside but more rock. It takes a lot more than pure hardness to hold the "HAND OF HOPE".

Parents of children with cancer are not solid all the way through. We hurt, we fear, we cry, we hope. It takes a very careful balancing act to keep the shell from being shattered. "Balancing an egg" while running a household,
going for doctors' visits and hospital stays, keeping the family together, and holding on to the constantly unraveling ties of your sanity can be very tricky indeed!

Occasionally, the angle will be off and the shell will break, shattering hope and the neatly secured appearances of a truly fragile existence. Unlike Humpty Dumpty, though, parents of children with cancer will pick
themselves up and put themselves back together again.


always in out thoughts, hearts and prayers..today and forever!!!

CHRISTMAS GIFTS

IF I COULD GIVE YOU LOVELY GIFTS

TO MAKE GLAD YOUR CHRISTMAS DAY,

I WOULD NOT GIVE YOU A SINGLE ONE.

I'D TAKE SOME THINGS AWAY.

I WOULD TAKE AWAY ALL YOUR SORROWS

ALL PAIN AND DOUBT AND FEARS.

I'D TAKE AWAY THE LONELY HOURS

THAT WOULD COME THROUGHTOUT THE YEAR.

I WOULD TAKE AWAY ALL UNKIND WORDS

THAT MAKE YOUR HEARTACHES DEEP.

I'D TAKE YOUR WORRIES AND YOUR CARES,

THESE I WOULD NOT KEEP.

YOU SEE INSTEAD OF LOVELY GIFTS,

"IF I ONLY COULD"

I'D TAKE AWAY FROM YOU ALL THE BAD THINGS

AND LEAVE ROOM FOR ALL THE GOOD.

Another angel takes flight.

My deepest, most sincere sympathy and condolences to each and every one of you!! Brandon was a fighter, there is no doubt about that! He is now pain free, free to fly in the Heavens and watch over all of you! Your Brandon passed away on Pam's 33rd birthday.
We lost our precious Pam on Oct. 7, 2003, so I know what you are going through. There are no words that can ease the pain.
I would just like to share a saying that was on the card my wife Diane picked out, and we bought for Pam:

If you were a star
That wasn’t expected back
In the universe
For a thousand years,
I’d wait.

If you were the sky
And everyone went inside
When you got sad
And started to rain,
I’d stay.

And if you were a peach
And the world decided to get rid of all peaches,
I’d pick you up,
Put you in my pocket…

AND KEEP YOU……..FOREVER.

I would also like to share, with you and your family, a poem that was put on Pams website:
God's Garden


God looked around His garden
And found an empty place
He then looked down upon the earth
And saw your tired face

He put His arms around you
And lifted you to rest
God's garden must be beautiful,
He always takes the best

He knew that you were suffering
He knew you were in pain,
He knew that you would never
Get well on earth again.

He saw the road was getting rough
And the hills were hard to climb
So He closed your weary eyelids,
And whispered "Peace Be Thine."

It breaks our hearts to lose you
But you didn't go alone.
For part of us went with you,
The day God called you home.

You are all in our prayers. GOD BLESS YOU ALL.

A Few Questions
By Clay Walker
How in this world can we put a man on the moon and still have a need for a place like St. Jude's?
And how is one man born in a place where all they know is war and a guy like me has always been free?
And how can two people who built a loving home try for years and never have a child of their own when somewhere out there tonight, there's a baby no one's holding tight in need of love?
To me, that don't add add up.
But I wasn't there the day you filled up the ocean.
I didn't get to see you hang the stars in the sky, so I don't mean to second guess you or criticize what I don't understand.
These are just a few questions I have.
And why did my cousin have to die in that crash?
A good kid, only seventeen. I still wonder about that.
It seems unfair to me some get the chance to chase their dreams. Some don't.
What do I know?
But I wasn't there the day you filled up the ocean.
I didn't get to see you hang the stars in the sky, so I don't mean to second guess you or criticize what I don't understand.
These are just a few questions I have.
Why do I feel like you hear these prayers of mine when so many ought to be ahead of me in line?
When you look down on me, can you see the good through all the bad?
These are just a few questions I have.

I Cry not for you, but I Cry for me.
I Cry not because you are gone from me, But because you left me behind.
I Cry because, I don't know the beauty and love that you feel and see.
I Cry not because I think your sad, but because I am sad.
I Cry not because the love is gone, but I Cry because my love for you is so strong.
I Cry for me because I wasn't quite ready to give you up.
I Cry not because your not here with me, but because I'm not there with you.
I Cry not that your soul was lifted up to heaven.
I Cry because you left us here on this earth so full of emptiness without you.
I Cry for me every time I think of you.
I Cry for your Dad and your Brother.
I Cry for all of those who loved you so dearly.
I Cry not for you, for where you are.
I Cry for us, for where we are, and that we are not with you. Every tear drop that falls from my eyes, are tears of joy and of gladness that you were such a wonderful part of my life.

I Cry not to be with you, to experience the beauty, the splendor, and the abundance of things wonderful. To know what it's like for everything to be simply perfect.....................

I just watched the baby genius video called A trip to the San Diego Zoo my adopted nanny aunt pauline bought me it. I have been sick this week and wanted to have an adventure so I popped the dvd in my momma's dvd player and I felt like I was really at the zoo! Those giraffees have big tongues and the elephants have big noses called tusks. The zoo is so cool. I am going to lookup interactive online zoos to see if anything comes up. I hope to get more baby genius videos and toys because that is my favorite show! It is so cute and my favorite character is vinko the dancing bear and dj the dinosaur is cool too! I hope you are having a great day I love my nanny aunt pauline very much!

Dear Cindy,
Thought I'd stop by and see how things are going with Brandons Foundation. We go for our checkup in two weeks at St Judes. Im already getting into the over load I always go into before a checkup. Dwayne is also going to a Shriners Hospital here are home in a week about his legs. They sontinue to turn in, and the pain is getting pretty bad at times. I hate to go against St Judes drs. saying he will outgrow this in his teen yrs but, they seem to be getting worse and he all along thought the pain he has experienced for the last 5 or so yrs was from nerve damage from his treatments for the AML, I just pray they find the answers soon. I pray that you find some comfort in the days ahead and remember you are all in my prayers. Prayers to all.

I thank the lord I was able to see both you and Brandon the day the Lord took him. We spoke about his trip to Sesame and I could see how happy you were. You were always a terrific mother and for that Brandon was the little angel he was. Today, Brandon is watching over you and will continue each day for the rest of your life. God bless you and your family and thank you again for allowing me to meet such a wonderful little boy!

Dear Cindy,
You are doing such a beautiful thing in memory of sweet Brandon. I heop all is doing as well as possible. I still find myself checking in everyday for any post about that special little boy. I have done it for so long it comes like second nature. I pray that you find some peace in knowing if nothing else he is not sick anymore. I know that doesnt make missing him any easier, my heart goes out to you and your family. This foundation sounds so wonderful, if anyone would know what the families need it would be you. You have so much compassion and love its great to see you spreading it around even more, even through all youve went through the last yr. Take care and know you are all in my prayers. Darlene

Hi Cindy and Family:
I went to the clinic today with Victor and I was so sad when I heard the news of Brandon when I asked about him. I am so sorry that I didn't know in time to be there at his services. I have always kept him in my prayers along with Victor. I know now that he is in a better place with our Lord. Victor and I just want to thank you for bringing Brandon into our lives. We will never forget him or you. He has a very good mother who did everything in her power for him. You are a wonderful person who God brought into my life and I thank him for you because you were so strong, determined and a very positive person who sat there and talked to me while our sons were under treatment. I am so sorry again for your loss and my heart goes out to you. Brandon will always have a place in my heart and Victor's heart, we will never forget him. Thanks again for bringing him into my life. May God continue to bless you and your family.

I want you to know that you are in my daily prayers. Brandon is in my prayer book so I see his picture everyday and I pray for you and your family. Brandon really fought hard and I believe now he is your personal angel in heaven. I know you would rather him here with you and of course you would! You should. You brought a beautiful little boy into this world who had such a light shining in him. May God Bless You and may Brandon always be in your heart:) Love, Tracy

Cindy,
I found your site through Jalen's and have already emailed you personally. You're in my thoughts and prayers. I dispise cancer and hate what it does to children.
I lost my 2 yr old daughter to AML leukemia on May 8, 2000. She was 6 days from turning 1 when dx. and fought for 14 months, after her BMT the leukemia returned...she fought for 3 months after relapse, but the cancer was evil and took us from our arms and placed her safely in GOD's.

Please email me anytime.

Dear Sweet Cindy,
I am still at a lost for words. Please know you and your whole family are in my prayers. Remember you were the best momma Brandon could have ever had and will always have. I know it all feels like a dream to you but know you done your best and the right things for him. He is now in a place where he can look after you all and watch over you all until you all meet again. Be gentle with yourself and I pray you find some peace in the days ahead. Prayers to you all. Darlene and Dwayne

Dear Cindy. I think of you and Brandon often and I pray that your heart will heal a little bit. I know that missing Brandon will always be present. Be gentle with yourself, don't worry about forgetting things or about just sitting and remembering Brandon, do what ever you need to to get thru each day and know that your pain is shared with so many people who were touched by Brandon. He was a remarkable little man and is now the sweetest little angel in heaven. I still feel the sadness of losing my son two years ago and some days I don't feel I can get thru another minute. That is when I realize that all I have to do is remember to breath, to be gentle with my grief and know that it will be allright. Sending you prayers hon.

I am so sorry, I truly am. I wish I had some words of wisdom to tell you, something to explain all of this and why Brandon had to go through so much, too much in his little life. But I dont, I dont have anything to offer to make you feel any better about the awful unfairness of all this. Please accept my deepest condolences, and please contact me if you would like someone I know who sends out grief books and packets to send you one. I know its not something anyone wants to deal with, but it may somehow be helpful.

I'm sending my deepest sympathy and prayers to you all (the whole family). I know that no words can ease your pain or fill your loss, I think God just felt the need to have one of his most precious angels come home.
God always takes the very best home to be with him, that should help you know just how special Brandon was and still is....
Please keep in mind that I care and am here to support you through this test of faith.

I wish I had the right words at this time. But, no words can take away the pain you all are feeling right now. Cindy, you are such a special person and know Brandon had only the best when it came to the love you gave him. He knew by looking into your eyes his was your whole world and will always be. You hang on to those precious days of just you and him and those special little smiles he sent out to you. He will be forever looking over you all. He is at last not sick, I know that doesnt make not having him with you any easier but, know he now in the most perfect place there is and one day you will see him again with those little fat sweet arms again. It was truly a inspriation to have talked with you months ago. Prayes always,

Hello my name is Jenna, and I was born with a rare bone disease. I know what is like to be in pain, go through treatment, heavy pain meds, in and out of hospitals, seeing doctors, and gone through 15 operations, and more on the way. I am a fighter, and I am very brave as well. So I know that even though it is tough on Brandon and your family, I know that Brandon is a real trooper, and a fighter as well as he is also very brave, i am sure.

Hi Cynthia, and sweet Brandon,
Hope this finds you all doing better. I am so glad to hear about the treatments. I pray this puts your sweet baby in remission. I also pray it doesnt make him very sick. YOu have both been in our prayers nightly and will continue to be. I pray also that you cindy be given the strength to help guide your angel in the days ahead. You are one special person, mom and friend, and dont you ever forget it!!!! I know you are so busy with Brandon and the girls just remember every night when everyone is asleep and things are so peaceful, you have many friends praying for you both and many guardian angels right on your side every step of the way. Oh, how is the wish going to take Brandon to Disney? I pray a organization finds it in their heart and grants you all this wish soon. Take care and call if there is ever anything I can do if only to listen... Prayers always,

I pray also for you Cindy for the strength to see your little man through this all. I know days seem like they go on forever, you just take care of yourself as well as you can and love that baby. You are both such a inspiration to all.... You remember the Lord gave little sweet Brandon to you to be his mommie cause he knew just how precious you were all along and how much love you had to give to a certain little angel sent down from him. You hang in there and know that tommorrow when they have little Brandon in OR you will have prayers going up to you both. Take care and we love you both.. Darlene and Dwayne

I hope all is well there. I would like to see if you wanted to be added to our Adopt A Kids site. All you have to do is go to one of the sites I will list below to read about it. If you go to the Chubby Chica one just click on Caringbridge on the left hand side. We are trying to get more people aware of the sites for all the kids, and just how many kids there actually are. And of course get more thoughts & prayers coming your way.

Hey there! Hope you had a great week! I'm doing alright. I'm so happy Spring has 'sprung'. Unfortunately, it's been kinda chilly here, so Wyatt and I haven't been on many walks. But that's ok because, Wyatt enjoys digging in the back yard. He digs and digs to find his favorite toy...ROCKS! If you want to, you can e-mail Wyatt and he'll write you back. He LOVES e-mail so much! His e-mail address is NewBrnCar4wyatt@aol.com . Please feel free to e-mail him anytime! Have a great week and remember, Wyatt loves you and so do I!

Hi, Brandon and Mom,
Was just thinking of you today and wanted to let you know it! It was so warm and sunny here in GA lately, so Hubby took the pool cover off Saturday... then what? We have had temps in the 30's for two days now!!! My dog, Baylee, doesn't even want to go out and potty when the weather is cold or wet! She just stands there and looks at me as if to say: "Why did you bring me out here?" Well... just wanted to write about something to take your mind off things for a minute or so. I spent 5 years, on and off, in hospitals with my little girl, so I know how overwhelming it can be... try to take things one day at at time. God is there.

Howdi Brandon and Mommy Cynthia.. I'm granny Nanny the bible lady, and have been with hugs and hope a couple years now.. I just wanted to let you know that I pray for you daily, and God is faithful and merciful and Brandon will be well in His perfect timing. There is no challenge like tending to an ill child, and real heart tugger.. I remember it all with my sons, the second one born 2 months+ premature and then the time he had to get skin grafting after a dreadful coffee spill at church; but God was faithful and now he is married and made us grandparents the first time 19 months ago!! All these events just make you stronger and lean on the Lord that much harder. Get some rest Mommy Cynthia, his guardian angel will never leave his side. God doesn't break promises. Prayers will continue. Lovies, Granny Nanny in Springing out Missouri. God Bless everyone. ((hugs to all))

Well, Spring blossoms are just like you, Brandon, as strong, as special, as brave. You have a VERY special place in our hearts, together with Cynthia, Jamara, Alyssa, Faith.

I am praying for litle Brandon. Did the transplant go on yet? Will this be his first? I read your journal history but I didn't know if he is still waiting for his first transplant. He is adorable as well as his sisters. My daughter has AML M4. She is currently in remission after completing chemo. Their chemo goes on very intensely for 5 months. She finished in September 2002. We pray she STAYS in remission or then she will have the BMT. Your precious baby will be in our prayers. Love, Tracy

Mom I know how hard it is to let yourself cry but I know it is a healing thing that we were given to help us release stress, sadness, anger and lots of other things. Dont ever feel bad for doing so. God Bless you and your family in this time. Your girls are in my prayers as well.

Hello Brandon, I am thinking of you today and I am saying a special prayer that all will be okay. And mom, it is good to cry sometimes to let all of your anguish out. It is not an easy thing that you are going through, but hang in there, Brandon has already proved that he is not just an ordinary kid.

Hi Cindy and Chris - All of us here are praying for Brandon and that he will improve dramatically!! We think about you guys a lot and pray for not only Brandon but your family that a peace will come over the entire family during this situation. Remember, that the only thing forever is eternal life. The things that we are hit with in this life come and go but we know that it is sometimes very hard to get through them. But God is faithful and said he would not allow us to have more put on us than we can stand......so, Cindy and Chris, hang in there.. Love Mom and Dad

Cindy, youv'e been so strong for so long... tears can be so cleansing especially if you are holding in so much. It's hurts to see him this ill... but hopefuly, this will pass soon, and the sickness from his chemo is cause it's working. You arent alone, your family, friends, and the Lord is with you every step of the way. Sometimes it's a good thing to have a good cry or get really mad, vent a little and for some unknown reason, you feel a little better. Thanks for having the courage to let us know how you are feeling, hang in there.

Hello Cindy and Brandon, I want you to know that I understand what you are going through. My daughter, Anna, had leukemia and relapsed after a 1st stem cell transplant, making her chances of living 5-10%. She got in remission again, though it wasn't supposed to happen very easily. She had a 2nd stem cell transplant this past December and she is doing really, really, well. Keep your faith in God and don't let the devil beat you into the ground. We will be praying for you.

Hi Cindy, it has been a while...although you are much on my mind as is Brandon and your girls... Not an easy decision, you have been back and forth on this... No one can make this decision for you, i am here if you want to do pros/cons... but i think you already know them, dont you? Ask God to guide you, and help you decide what is best for Brandon. We have both read some of the research out there, maybe the docs can explain why they think they would be successful. Did the odds change since the last time they told them to you? What is different now? These are things you already know. Trust yourself, Cindy. You are amazing, and smart and strong. The decision lies within you, it is jsut a matter of listening. There is no doubt in my mind that you will do what right by Brandon...no matter what you decide. My prayers are with you. Take care, and keep in touch.
love ya,

What kind of goodies can I send you to munch on? Mommy says you need to eat. You just tell me what and I'll have it on the way, my little hero!

hi, just checking in to see if there were any updates, and if you are at home yet. I am thinking about you , and praying for you all. Happy Birthday, just a little early... plus i will let you in on a secret, you will be having another celebration with your sisters when you get my little package. It is coming sooner than later, i promise :-) your mom has learned i have a tendency to procrastinate just a little (LOL) Anyhow, i will continue to check this site, and i will be emailing your mom.

Brandon, Cindy, and all the other family, I just wanted to send you a quick note letting you know that many prayer warriors are praying for all of you. We have been asking God to heal Brandon and give Mom, Dad, and his sisters peace and comfort in the midst of a challenging time. We have been keeping up to date about Brandon's health through my cousin Debbie Flores. Our homegroup from our church has been praying faithfully for you all and they are always wanting to get the next week's update as we gather together. I hope it brings you some peace knowing that there are many people who pray for you all and for Brandon's restored health. God bless all of you. And never forget that there is no task too small or too insignificant for God to know about and take care of for us. We look forward, with hearts full of expectant faith, to hear good news soon.

You dont even have to ask.. God has been bombarded with prayers for Brandon and him mom... they are a team.. you can't possibly pray or think of one without the other. For now, take it a day at a time, even an hour at a time. Just you and Brandon.. God willing, Brandon will surprise us yet again, when he beats this tiny set back. I am rooting for you all. hang in there. i will stay in touch

Hi all, how are things? Jackie said you can't always get to the computer to update us, but is sounds like you and Brandon are toughing it out, awaiting the transplant. I know it's rough right now, but once he is healthy, and running around, this will all seem so long ago for all of you. Just a while longer, ok? God is with you, holding onto you both and angels are watching over your girls. It is a brand new year, with tons of hope and blessings.
Take good care, keep in touch any way you can .

Once he gets healthy, he will have to hold his own with you all. I grew in a family with 4 females and a female dog !! That's why Toby is a boy dog :) Soon i will be sending your pictures, he gives great, big, wet hugs...so considered yourselves HUGGED :) Hang in there, your faith is great. and it would seem Brandon has tons of folks in his corner praying and keeping the faith.
