the final mile

We don't know quite where we are with Matt, but it looks as though we are in the last stretch. The last two weeks have been very difficult for all of us. Please continue to pray God would be glorified in the midst of our suffering and the separation to come.

  8. Praise HIM. What a perfect family for little Matt.

    You are amazing people, and what an amazing testimony of love. Surely, your reward will be great in Heaven. If ever there was example of loving "the least of these....(Matt. 25:40)" it is this loving family. Bless you.

    Love and prayers, and blessings.

  9. I know what this final mile is like. We had our Renner for 2 months and 6 days. It wasn't until the last 6 days that we found out that his diagnosis was terminal. His case was a little different that Matts but still a brain thing that we and the doctors still don't have a definitive diagnosis. It is hard to watch and have your child die in your arms. But it is also a gift. Bittersweet. Praying for you.

    God bless you and your family and espically Matt!

  12. I am so sorry you are going through this. What a beautiful picture of God's love and mercy your family has been in the love that you have for little Matt...you will all be in our prayers. Matt's life may be short, but it has touched the lives of so many people. May you feel the love of God surround you, lift you up, and support you in the weeks to come.
