prayers for Sophie

Dearest Sophie...


I just wanted you to know that Trevy's family will be praying for you especially this week! You are in our hearts and minds constantly.



This is a big...exciting...scary week for your family! In large part because...



You have an amazing mommy! Who passionately advocates...loves...and persues hope for you!



She may not know this...but she has become a very special friend to me as we've journeyed together this past year. A friend who allows me to be open & honest...but always encourages me to cling to Hope!



I know she's worried. And freaking out. And that's okay. Because now it's my turn to be the friend (at least one of them) who just listens...loves...and reminds her to cling to Hope...



And as this new week dawns...I wanted you to know how special your mommy is! And how amazing & special you are!




Hugs...and prayers...and best wishes for this week!



XOXOXOXO...



...Trevy's mommy

Sophie's Story by Elaine said…
I had to come back to comment because after I finished reading it the first time...the tears would not stop flowing. You are so very sweet and supportive. You are an amazing friend who allows me to vent without judgment. And, unfortunately, you understand all too well what I am going through. Thank you for always being here for me.

I am also gonna have Sophie and her folks in my thoughts a ton. I hope everything goes great up there. Might even run into them since it looks like our trips are going to overlap.

I can't stop thinking about this little girl! What an amazing inspiration she has been! And her mommy too!

They will all certainly be in my prayers!

No, I don’t know him personally

  I’ve had several emails today asking if I know Mike W. of Marissa’s Bunny personally.    Trevy’s blog was linked on her site.  Although it’s not now.     I’ve posted here and there at his request.  Because…well…we’re a community.  Us IS families.  And Marissa is wicked cute.  Her daddy has a way with words.  Also who wouldn’t want the world to know about an iPad give-away?    But aside from that…I know about as much as you do.    We’ve never met in person.    Our only communication has been cyber.    I’m a ginormous sap and as such would love to believe that all is right.  That the sweet, beautiful families who were promised iPads will be getting them tonight.  Tomorrow at the latest.  That no one has been lied to.  That the personal thank you for your generosity email I sent him on behalf of other IS families I’ve grown to love and was thrilled to learn w...

I was talking about you today

That's right. You. Sitting there glued. To the computer screen. Getting your Trevy fix. You who hasn't been able to tear your eyes away. The one who checks back here gobs of times a day. Hanging on every post. Especially the dripping with drama or funny posts. Because you need to either laugh or cry alternately. Just like me. And somewhere...sometime...somehow...over the course of these past couple years... ...you found yourself here. Reading about me. About my family. About my Trevy. And slowly you were drawn in. Until you couldn't help yourself. You were head over heels. Unashamedly addicted. Maybe we connected in a support forum. Perhaps we're old college friends. I know we have family following. Hi guys! Some teachers and therapists. Maybe even a medical professional or two. Perhaps our kids play ball together. We might be FaceBook friends. Or you could be a friend of a friend. Even a complete stranger. But to us... you each have a very special pla...

runaway

I tend to be a live out loud kinda girl. But sometimes... well...sometimes life is just so heavy. So intense. So overwhemling. That it brings out the recluse in me. Like lately. The thing is...I know it'll pass. It always does. And I'll learn something. Grow. Hopefully. Survive. Certainly. Because I have to. It's just right now. In this particular heavy moment. I would much rather run away to some tropical paradise and sip martinis until Jonathan calls to tell me Trevy's back at home. Happy. And seizure free. With a new head of curls covering the scar and bouncing around the house. I am a coward after all. I've never denied that. And I really don't want to live through this next month. Which is probably why my posts will be random. At best.
