So I used to think Zach's illness was so God could heal him when He would get the most glory and when his children needed to see that He does indeed still do miracles but now.....I'm thinking maybe it doesn't have anything to do with you at all but maybe you're the method that God planned all along to bring those other families at CHOP into relationship with Him. So I have to tell you how very proud I am to know you - you all are rocking this Jesus' hands and feet thing like stars - no hiding your lights under a basket!! As much as my heart is broken for all of your fellow BMT families especially the poor mama who's missing her baby right now), if the end result is heaven for all, I think all of you would count the cost as small. Heaven is a real destiny and I believe there are people going there now that might not have before Zach's BMT. I continue to pray for all of you and have added all the other families into my prayers as well. Zach - Way to go kiddo. YOU ARE DOING THIS!!!! God's plan, God's timing, God's love, Your obedience. Love you guys so much!! Saw someone posted about ginger - I have some growing fresh if you want some for tea

Thanks so much for the update. It is great to hear Zach is continuing to make progress. Continuing to keep him and you all in our thoughts and prayers. Will pray for this mom that you will have more opportunities to minister to during this difficult time.

Dear Diane,
We’re thanking God for His loving kindness in answering our prayers for Zach. My prayer partner Carol, suggested ginger to help relieve Zach’s nausea. You could probably find it in a health food store, or in ginger ale made from real ginger. You may already have tried this. In any case we’ll continue to pray for you’re precious son, and your whole family.

Thank you sooo much for the update....I’m sooo glad it is summer/fall and Zach can be outside when he is up to it. I wish I was there to visit though I know contact with people is still very limited. Praising God that Zack is doing so well...

Praising God for the Zach’s progress / healing thus far and healing that is continuing to happen. 🙏🏽 Great to hear that Zach was able to mow the lawn👏🏼👍🏽👌🏾. Praying for the single mom 😔as well as other kids and families that you are walking this journey with. Praying for God’s wisdom, peace, healing, comfort and blessings on all of you 🙏🏽

Thank you for keeping us updated. My heart breaks for the mom who lost a child. I'll be praying for her and the other moms you bonded with. I'll pray for you to have wisdom to know what and when to share with these moms.

Diane, thank you so much for this update! We are keeping you all in our prayers and rejoicing with you with each step of progress made. Our hearts break for this single mom and we will be praying for much wisdom for you as you interact with her and pray that she comes to know the Lord. We continue to pray for God’s grace, strength and comfort in this incredibly difficult journey and for Zach’s complete healing!

Thank you for your update! It’s so great hearing of Zach’s gains! Since Mat hurt his back I’ve been mowing our lawn & each step and push I excitedly await next summer where I can hire Zach to do ours! Lol
I will be praying for you all daily along with the other moms and kiddos at Chop. Keeping your dear friend going through Loss upheld as well. Love & Prayers 🤗
