How much it speaks to the wide scope of your family's miracle the vast contrast we see from the "fun" hospital pictures to the "fun" beach pictures! I know for you it gives very real meaning to "...more than we could ever ask or imagine."
Every time I see a picture of the two or three of you without masks, gowns and tubes, I am reminded of the miracle I have had the honor of following and praying for. It keeps getting better and better and Tricia looks so healthy, praise the Lord. I am blessed by you guys every day. Was Gwyneth taking the pictures of you two?:) Just asking, talent seems to run big time in your family.
This is my first comment but I have prayed for you for months. I love the pics and the smiles. I love when you share your life with us including the triumphs and the setbacks and yet still give God the glory and tell others He is GOOD. I have fallen in love with your daughter! Tricia is a miracle and beautiful. Nate is an example of faithfulness and love for his family and most of all, loves our Lord. What a powerful way to reach others--just by simply smiling through all this and saying God is still a good God and is still in control. You bless me.
a big hello from singapore! i somehow came across your blog and i've been hooked ever since.
trisha's courage and determination is very inspiration to someone who lives with a chronic condition (i live with diabetes) and i truly admire the relationship you two share.
i'm also pretty much in awe that you want to use your experiences with cystic fibrosis to bless other people, which is an awesome thing in itself.
i know i have been blessed by your story, and i've got a hunch i'll continually be blessed by you sharing your ups and downs with so many people. because your story is just one so many examples which reaffirm that God moves and acts in miraculous ways!
Hiya Nate and Tricia, I haven't commented on here for a while but I always read. Its so good to see you having fun on the beach, it made me grin from ear to ear to see you two so happy.
I also wanted to say a big thank you for posting a link to Gina's blog so we can all pray for her.
You two are so much fun. The love you have for each other is incredibly obvious through the photos and stories you share! Thanks for letting us take daily peeks into your lives!
The pictures are truly breath taking. What a lovely, vibrant family. Prayers that everything continues to go well for you and your family. Tricia looks to be doing very well and feeling much better. Elaine from MT
Thisis my first time posting, but have read and prayed for your family for months. I have to give you credit for sharing your story with us and increasing awareness of CF and organ donation. I love reading about your family and feel like I know you even though we have never actually met. Please know that I would love to do the walk for CF. I live in Illinois and have agreed to donate to the CF foundation with the help of family and friends after sharing your story with them. Please let me know where to send the money and how and I will try my best to help with the cure for this disease. Thank you for sharing again and I will wait for some feedback.
Before reading your blog, I was not a donor, and had not considered it. This past week my mother unexpectedly and suddenly passed away, and because of your blog, I decided that her organs should be donated. She was able to donate 2 kidneys, her liver, her heart valves, and she was also able to donate tissue and veins. Thank you SO much for blogging about your journey for the world to see, lives have been changed because of your families story.
I have marked my drivers license to donor, and have let my family know my wishes.
I've never left a comment for you before, but read your blog frequently. You have such a beautiful family, and seeing the strength and grace with which you meet life's challenges is such an inspiration. Thank you for sharing your story with us. You are always in my prayers.
Beautiful pictures, btw - can't wait to see more! :)
I randomly read your blog just to see how things are going and little bit of inspiration that my life isn't that bad, and to know that there is worse out there. I am sure glad your both are so strong to carry the weight of many. I wanted to comment on the rude commenter...did you know that you can comment moderate? You can read the comments before they are posted, then for sure no one will see them. I swear some people are so stupid and they go out of their way to make someone else miserable. Crazy! Keep up the strong smiles...it keeps me grounded and I love reading your blog. CS (I am a friend of Somer Love, that is how I found your blog.)
