Signing
in from Children's Hosp in Cincinnati. Tom, I have to say the Father's
Day update brought tears to my eyes. What a wonderful moment God allowed
you to share with Ben at the zoo. How precious God is! We continue to
pray for Ben and your family. We continue to check up on Ben dailey. We
wish you the best this next week and I personally will have you all in
my prayers as decisions need to be made. God bless all of you and know
that we love you and you are always in our prayers.

Checking
in and I read Tom's story. I teared up. Because of the simple joys you
are able to see and enjoy with your kids. This is what makes parenting
great. Thank you for sharing you thoughts. They were moving and
touching. A two for one deal. Fathers Day and Birthday. With the three
people who loves you the most. Nothing better then that. Stay well,
focused, and believing. Praying for you all. HAVE A GREAT DAY! Thank God
for the little mircles. They count just as much as the big ones. Becky

(Sorry
about the previous blank entry! Sheesh!) Happy Birthday and Happy
Father's Day, Tom. I know today is somewhat bittersweet. Eli & Ben are
so blessed to have you and Jennifer as parents, and you are blessed to
have them as sons. I sort of understand the anticipation with which you
await the upcoming week of evaluation of Ben's situation. For months &
months, Max never seemed to have a good MRI report. But what it boils
down to is no matter the words you hear from the docs, Ben will still be
Ben. He won't change, just possibly the treatment plan will change. He's
a child with a brain tumor, not a brain tumor with a child. I can only
imagine what is in your hearts right now. Focus on today, and every
minute of it. God will give you the strength you need tomorrow. I am
praying, and most definitely believing.

Tom and
Jennifer... I am sorry I have not been able to log a message on here for
a while...I spent a few days in the hospital and things have been
hectic. Please forgive me for not being able to show support for this
time! We are continuing to keep all of you, especially Ben, in our daily
prayers. I am sorry I was not able to see you guys on Sunday (in
hospital). I was looking forward so much to seeing you! It was
disappointing! But I was thinking about you and I hope everything went
well for you! God bless you! Believing with the Bowens, Darrell Clark.

Tom, your
words are so beautiful and uplifting . The smallest things in life are
always the most awesome. I'm sure that when Ben looked at you it was the
best look that you have ever seen. I saw the whole image as I read the
words. As humans, we sometimes tend to take our children for granted but
your words really made me think about the little things in life. While I
was pregnant with Ripley, the doctor told me I only had a 1% chance to
carry her. Well, she is alive and 41/2 years old. GOD is ALWAYS good!!!
I know He will be so good to you too. I feel HIM working in yours
Jennifers, Eli and Bens life. With that said, it was so good to see you
at church when you were in. I am so glad I came to hear you speak.
Believing with you. Love and Prayers and Happy Fathers Day!!!

Tom &

man that he should lie - His word shall not return to Him void - know
that he is watching over His Word to perform it in your life. Standing
on his promises with you, T&N

I
followed a link here from Karley's page, so that I can put out a prayer
for you son. Wendy is my best friend and we prayed for the Lord to take
care of Karley in a way He only knows how. God gave us a blessing with
her and a blessing for your son. We will be praying everyday for Ben and
know that the Lord answers all prayers. God bless your family and thank
you for the support you have given the Blouin family.

This is
the day the Lord has made - may it remind you that you are blessed and
cannot be cursed. Just as by his blood we are redeemed, by those 39
stripes he bore for us, we are healed. I hope an important package from
us was waiting for you upon your return. May it bless you, strengthen
you, and cover you with love and support. Agreeing with you, T&N

1John
3:21-24 Dear friend,...we have confidence before God and receive from
him anything we ask because we obey his commands and do what pleases
him. 23.And this is his command: to believe in the name of his son,
Jesus Christ, and to love one another as he commanded us. 24.Those who
obey his commands live in him, and he in them. And this is how we know
that he lives in us: We know it by the Spirit he gave us.

Tom and
Jennifer, Just wanted to let you know I'm praying for both of you daily
and especially Ben and Eli. Always remember that God will not lead you
where His Grace cannot sustain you. I want to share a praise report with
you that I hope will uplift you. A young couple in our church found out
early in their pregnancy that the baby was going to have multiple
medical problems and birth defects. The only option they gave them was
to abort the baby. She came to church sharing her devastating news but
decided to place her faith in God. For several months our church has
prayed for this baby and 2 weeks ago we welcomed a healthy, perfect
child into this world!!! We serve a Big God and He is able to overcome
what the world cannot. Keep believing!!!

Dear Ben,
My heart broke when I read your story,see my grandson also has ATRT, and
I know what you and your family are going through. I tell my grandson
Zane, that God will take care of him, and thats what I wanted to say
little one, God will take care of you. I know that you are having a very
hard time with things, but I can also see that your mommy and daddy and
Eli, love you very much, and their faith in God is strong. Ben you are a
sweet little boy, We will continue to keep you in our prayers little
one. Grow strong, be happy, may God Bless you and your family.
