Before TJ's frightening illness last week, I was thinking how sad I was to not have mom here to tell about Jade's early delivery of him. I don't know if that makes sense, but I wanted to have her counsel and comfort. Then when TJ became so sick, I was in a fog. Like on movies when everything zones out and all you see is the main character's tunnel vision, I was in that tunnel but wasn't the main character.
Lacy, Renee, Tammy, Kim, Misty, Lisa, Trish, Jessica, Rosalie, ward members and my co-workers at CVMC helped me to endure such a hard time. Without having Joey right by my side, I was afraid and yet wanted to be strong for Jade, Tim, and TJ. I am so thankful for all the talks of encouragement that I had with each of you. Between that, and Joey's love and concern over the phone, I have made it through one of those awful, rough points of my life. I don't know what hardships will be required of any of us in the time we have left here on earth, but I know we are each better people because of the love our family and friends share with us. I cannot thank-you enough.
Love,
**Wendy

You are such a dear sweet strong woman... stronger than you ever give yourself credit with. You build me up each time we visit with a joy of life that you have infused into each of your remarkable children. That is a gift that is worth much... plus Joey and your faithfulness has given strength where much is needed. I love you and yours and so wish I could do more. Know that you are in my prayers and thoughts throughout the duration of this trial.
Your loving Sister,
Kimberly

ok so it has been a month. You are back from Hawaii - get back to blogging. It isn't like you are busy or anything!!
Love ya sis, Renee
You are awesome, you need to hang in there and give yourself a break. You are a great mom and there when she needs you. These kind of things are why we have family - nobody can do it alone.
Love ya lots, Renee
