Sending a Tinkerbell kiss your way,




Love Viks

Just stopping by to let you know you are in my heart and prayers and we have not forgotten Garrett. May God draw near and fill your heart with strength and grace, but most of all, hope.

There is constant joy abiding
In Christ my Lord and King;
Of His love that passeth knowledge
My heart and tongue shall sing.

He is all in all to me,
And my song of songs shall be,
Hallelujah, O my Savior,
I am trusting only Thee.

When my path is veiled in shadows,
And clouds above me roll,
I can smile amid the tempest,
His glory fills my soul.

I can see his bow of promise
Through tears and trials deep;
I can hear His voice like music,
That lulls my care to sleep.

I shall yet behold the praise Him,
And dwell in perfect peace
In the golden land of beauty,
Where cloud and wave shall cease.

Sending a ton of prayers your way.
Love and hugs
Judy

God Made You For A Reason

When I look upon my screen
I find a happy reason
the joy that comes to me from you
is gratitude so very pleasing...

What a wonderful creator
that made a friend like you,
He placed a sweet kind person
and gave me lots of comfort too.

A world without your kindness
would be a sad sad world.

But I don't have to worry,
there's no need to be,
because of you I am very happy,
and that's good enough for me.

I've found great people everywhere,
they come into my life.
Just like you, all those others too,
have given me delight.

So I thank God I met you,
I thank him for all seasons.
Now I know for sure with all my heart,
GOD Created YOU for a reason.

Thinking and praying for you always.

Today I Thought of You

I sat and watched a sunset today
The way we once used to do
I recalled the tranquility it brought
Today I thought of you

I watched a little child at play
While others played with him too
I thought of all the times you played
Today I thought of you

I watched a mother leave her child
And walk away from the school
I remembered the times when we did that
Today I thought of you

I watched a wedding taking place
As I sat and observed the bride and groom
I know I'll never share this with you
But today I thought of you

I saw a little girl in a store
Buying candy for her brother too
I remembered you and your sis
Today I thought of you

I sat in a church in the back pew
The family torn in two
They were burying their little boy
Today I thought of you

I saw a cloud up in the sky
The background a beautiful blue
I thought of Heaven and where you are
Today I thought of you

No matter where I'm at
As long as my memories come through
I'll always think of you daily
I'll never stop thinking of you

Sharon Bryant Angels Remembered

You are never far from my heart and prayers.
Much love

MercyMe - Homesick
From the album Undone


You're in a better place, I've heard a thousand times
And at least a thousand times I've rejoiced for you
But the reason why I'm broken, the reason why I cry
Is how long must I wait to be with you

I close my eyes and I see your face
If home's where my heart is then I'm out of place
Lord, won't you give me strength to make it through somehow
I've never been more homesick than now

Help me Lord cause I don't understand your ways
The reason why I wonder if I'll ever know
But, even if you showed me, the hurt would be the same
Cause I'm still here so far away from home

I close my eyes and I see your face
If home's where my heart is then I'm out of place
Lord, won't you give me strength to make it through somehow
I've never been more homesick than now

In Christ, there are no goodbye
And in Christ, there is no end
So I'll hold onto Jesus with all that I have
To see you again
To see you again

And I close my eyes and I see your face
If home's where my heart is then I'm out of place
Lord, won't you give me strength to make it through somehow
Won't you give me strength to make it through somehow
Won't you give me strength to make it through somehow

I've never been more homesick than now

Hope this song helps too. I just thought of it.

If Tomorrow Starts Without Me
Author believed to be
David Romano


When tomorrow starts without me,
And I'm not there to see,
If the sun should rise and find your eyes
all filled with tears for me,


I wish so much you wouldn't cry
The way you did today,
While thinking of the many things,
We didn't get to say.


I know how much you love me,
As much as I love you,
and each time that you think of me,
I know you'll miss me too.


But when tomorrow starts without me,
Please try to understand,
That an angel came and called my name,
And took me by the hand,
and said my place was ready,
In heaven far above,
And that I'd have to leave behind
All those I dearly love.


But as I turned to walk away,
A tear fell from my eye
For all my life, I'd always thought,
I didn't want to die.


I had so much to live for,
So much left yet to do,
It seemed almost impossible,
That I was leaving you.


I thought of all the yesterdays
The good ones and the bad,
I thought of all the love we shared,
and all the fun we had


If I could re-live yesterday
Just even for a while,
I'd say good-bye and kiss you
And maybe see you smile.


But then I fully realized,
That this could never be,
For emptiness and memories,
would take the place of me.


And when I thought of worldly things,
I might miss come tomorrow,
I thought of you, and when I did,
My heart was filled with sorrow.


But when I walked through heaven's gates,
I felt so much at home
When God looked down and smiled at me,
From His great golden throne.


He said, "This is eternity,
And all I've promised you."
Today your life on earth is past,
But here life starts anew


I promise no tomorrow,
But today will always last,
And since each day's the same way
There's no longing for the past.


You have been so faithful,
So trusting and so true.
Though there were times
You did some things
You knew you shouldn't do.


But you have been forgiven
And now at last you're free.
So won't you come and take my hand
And share my life with me?


So when tomorrow starts without me,
Don't think we're far apart,
For every time you think of me,
I'm right here, in your heart.


I didn't "know" garret, but i will never forget him.

Love Viks

Tell me what lies on the other side."
Very quietly, the doctor said, "I don't know."
"You don't know?
You, a Christian man,
do not know what is on the other side?"
The doctor was holding the handle of the door;
on the other side came a sound
of scratching and whining,
and as he opened the door,
a dog sprang into the room
and leaped on him
with an eager show of gladness.
Turning to the patient, the doctor said,
"Did you notice my dog?
He's never been in this room before.
He didn't know what was inside.
He knew nothing except that
his master was here,
and when the door opened,
he sprang in without fear.
I know little of what
is on the other side of death,
but I do know one thing...
I know my Master is there
and that is enough."
~ May today there be peace within you. ~
~ May you trust God
that you are exactly where you are meant to be. ~
~ Friends are quiet angels
who lift us to our feet
when our wings have trouble
remembering how to fly. ~

You are so amazing, Garrett. No seizures is good news, we'll take any of that we can get. It sounds like the docs are doing a good job of keeping you comfortable and pain-free, they are probably so impressed with you. Of course they all have lots of patients, but it doesn't take much to see that you are something special. I'm sure you were glad that Kyle and Caleigh visited Saturday. Siblings have a special bond, so even if you couldn't show that you knew they were there, I'll bet you knew it in your heart. Glad you're back on the Green Unit- it makes it easier to visit! I'm going to try to stop by tomorrow morning before school, maybe about 8:00? Don't worry if your mom and dad aren't up yet, I can just leave a note. Sending love and prayers your way!

Chris -

After four long months, we finally got our website back up from the hurricane. (Hurricane Ivan, category 3/4) The very first person the flock wanted to send a message to was Garrett. :) Fresca, our Greater Sulphur Crested Cockatoo, is our spokesbird this week for the Haldago Bay Flock. (If you click on the picture, you can see more of them, but I will be updating the site next week.)

We have been keeping track of Garrett and are happy to be able to send him some "bird smiles" in his guestbook. We hope this will provide a small diversion for him throughout his struggles. We also hope he gets to come home and fight the infection from there. Please know you are in our thoughts and the FIDS (feathered kids) all send FLAPS and BEAKS (translation, HUGS and KISSES) to your family. :)

Hi!!!!
Sorry I haven't signed your guest book in awhile. I hope you are doing ok and are enjoying the winter so far. I have a new website! It is MJ - The SMA Queen....If you want to check it out. If you don't see your website on my friends page (and would like to) e-mail me, and I will put you up ASAP. I hope you have a ! and remember,

Garrett, You have never met me and probably never will, but I am praying for you every day. I go to college in Kansas and I live in a house of 5 girls. Each night we gather, light a candle and say a rosary. As your miracle continues to happen, know that the five of us, are praying specifically for you. Thank you for being such an amazing example of God's healing power on earth. God loves you and has a plan for you. He is so proud of how strong you are in carrying out His plan. We love you too and will keep praying until God has finished healing you!
Love 5 people in Kansas that you have never met.

Hi there Garrett,
Just heard about your struggles.
I'll be thinking about you every day.
I'm sending you some flowers in a some poetry.
If you like that I'll sent you some more,
Jan

Flowers

In the prime of life … glorying forever.
Just a moment they bloom … eternity to wear.
Glimpses set before us … to remind us about the never
when beauty is forgotten … and problems fill the air.

A flower just to praise … its Maker unrestricted.
Reaching up to where … the dreams are in the Son
Gently smiling for a day … contentment unaffected
there serve without demands … fulfillment all in fun.

Even cut in a vase … they depart in a blaze of glory.
Not a tear shows agony … just glowing with a smile.
Ignoring what’s not there … or to notice any gory,
that captures a dying world … in influence everywhere.

It brings to all who see it … warmth for a moment.
or a pause in a busy life … to help time to stand still.
Maybe paradise is such … a call through the atonement.
where flowers bloom all the time … in happiness fulfilled.

In places where flowers roam … peace quenches the thirst
of the hopeless and the lost in fear … in a world gone astray.
As colors rule in carpets of green … and words appear empty.
The Lord prepares the Garden of Love …where we visit as we pray.

JW

Way to go Garrett! Keep on fighting & get to the Green Unit so Jay can come up to see you. He was bummed that he couldn't come today, but he understands & wants you to know that he really wants to be there w/you. If it were up to him, he'd be sleeping there! Of course, this also means that you have to take him w/you to Hawaii!! You said that you guys were brothers!!! You are in our prayers & always in our hearts. You are a wonderful friend. We love you.

Garrett, I'm a friend of Lisa Young's, Blake's mom. I'm saying a prayer right as I type this that you will get better soon. I think a trip to Hawaii is a good motivator, don't you? Remember, Jesus loves you more than you can ever know and He's right with you all of the time. God bless you and your family...

Dear Coleen and Garrett,

I came to you through Connor Hunley's website (which I got to eons ago via Kevin Martin's site-he's a close friend of ours). I am praying for Garrett to recover and fight his cancer, and I am praying for you to keep up your strength, and to help Garrett's siblings. Just a quick post to say that you are being prayed for here in New Hampshire.

Hi Garrett, Colleen and family,
I am getting to go to bed and just like every night, I check on Garrett. I am so happy to hear of the latest miracle. After reading your description, I can picture Garrett as Rocky now. Thankfully, he doesn't have to drink raw eggs!!
Garrett, Ella and I look at your picture every day on your website. You probably don't remember us but we are thinking and praying for your recovery. I hope that you get the breathing tube removed tomorrow and that your WBC kicks in and starts fighting for you, just like Rocky. Sending lots of love your way,

Garrett,
You are fighting so hard, I know you can make it to Hawaii. So while you're getting better, I found some fun facts to entertain you and get you ready to go. After all, you know the Boy Scout's motto is to "Be Prepared"! (Yeah, I have a little brother.) So here they are!

1. The (unofficial) state fish of Hawaii is the Humuhumukununukuapua'a. It's a mouthful- I'll teach you how to say it sometime. Translated, it means "fish with a pig's nose." And they sleep on their sides, which must look really odd.
2. There are only 12 letters in the Hawaiian alphabet. Must be why they have all those apostrophes.
3. In Honolulu, a state law says that "Within the limits of any public park, it is unlawful to annoy any bird." (SEC. 10-1.2)
4. To be continued...!

Hope you're getting your white counts up and feeling better!

I can't remember where I found your site, probably thru another caringbridge site. I've been reading thru past journal entries. I am so sorry to read of Garrett's relapse, especially when it looked like the cancer was gone. I'm glad you got to take your MAW trip plus another to Florida. Those memories will last a life time. I hope that Garrett pulls thru again and you get to spend more time with him. Jessica's mom www.caringbridge.org/mo/jessica (Jessica has Rhabdo, too, she is in remission)

Hi Garrett,

I want to thank you for blessing my life today! There are several families I keep up with in the Caring Bridge community. This morning, one of them had a link to your site and I decided to visit. I'm really glad that I did because hearing about how tough you are has blessed me. Isn't it great knowing that so many people around the world are pulling for you?

Now, here's a little story to make your day... What's worse than finding a worm in your apple?
Answer: Finding half a worm in your apple!!

You keep being tough and beat this thing, OK! I'm saying a prayer for you as soon as I finish this.

Love,

Garrett,
Thank you so much for letting me come visit you tonight. It was great to see you, I could tell you were the same strong, amazing Garrett in spite of what you've been through this past week. I wish you knew just how many people are thinking about you and praying for you right at this moment. There must be hundreds. I'm sure your mom has read a certain short inspirational story about how God chooses a mom to be the mother of a child with cancer, a child "less than perfect." Well, I have always had a problem with that description. Cancer is not a flaw, but rather a terrible disease. A bald chemo head? A badge of courage. And you are not "less than perfect"- you are a superhero to all of us. I will be thinking about you and praying for you, as always, and I hope to come visit you again soon. I know you have a lot of hard work to do on that white blood cell count, but I also know that you, of all people, can get through this. So goodnight, Superman. Sweet dreams.

Our families don't know each other, I came across your website from another Caringbridge website. I have been praying for your recovery from this dreaded Cancer. I have read your story and you are such a brave fighter. I pray for your family to be given strenth to endure the hours of waiting and watching as you fight. I pray for you to continue to have the power to overcome this infection. I pray for God's healing care so that you can recover and beat the Cancer. Hang in there, know that there are so many people that care for you, even many like I who have never met you. May you have God's peace and many Blessings.

Keep your faith in Jesus Christ he is the great healer and he loves you. No matter what happens if you just stick close with Jesus you will have victory. God has given me these verses to share with you.

In my anguish I cried to the LORD , and he answered by setting me free. The LORD is with me; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me? ”- Psalm 118:5 and 6

Father,

I know it is written that whatever we ask in your name you have said we shall receive. Now oh Lord I call upon that promise. Bring Healing to Garret. First touch him spiritually giving the grace to keep his faith in you. Then touch him mentally grant him the ability to press on. Finally touch him physically Lord I ask you in Jesus name to give him the opportunity to show your love to others by healing him. Thank you Jesus for the love you have shown us. May Garret rest in your loving arms.

In Jesus Name,
Amen.

Hang in their buddy God has an incredible purpose for your life and he loves you very much.

But I do know this-- Garrett has blessed your life beyond belief, and, in turn, you have blessed him by being the absolute best parents he could ever wish for. My continued prayers are with you all.

Love and hugs,
Rhonda Hunley, Forever Connor's Mommy
