I too am
a parent of a St. Jude patient. When my son was diagnosed with ALL I
thought it was the end of my world. Please know that we will be praying
for BIG BEN and know that he has touched my son with his story. Thanks

I found
your site because I have been following the story of Allie Scott and
someone posted about your Ben. Now I will pray for him too, he is
absolutely beautiful. I wish you the best and hold you in my
heart.(http://www.scotthousehold.com)

Tom &
Jennifer, I "stumbled" upon Ben's website while browsing online one
evening. It caught my attention because I too have a little boy, just 3
weeks younger than Ben. Anyway, I cannot believe how much "knowing" Ben
has changed my life. I now believe that finding Ben's site was not just
a random thing but that God led me there for a reason. I have been so
very moved by your faith, by Ben's spirit & courage, and by your
willingness to share his story. It has been so very meaningful to me and
to so many others. Thank you for allowing us into your lives. I pray for
Ben every night as I rock my son, Collin, to sleep. May God Bless you,
Eli and your sweet, precious Ben!

Hey Big
Ben! Thinking of you today!! You are such a trooper! Can't wait to see
you, praying for your recovery, the move back, saying goodbye to new
friends which is always hard, but God your Father is with you through it
ALL!!! We love you! Marie, Jeff, Greg, Geoffrey, & Jeremy :-)

Hey Ben
and family! Glad to hear you are feeling so good lately! I'll bet you
will be super happy to be done and back up here where you belong! We all
went to Chili's for dinner on Monday and saw your sweet face on a BIG
picture by the door! What a cutie! I have the package to mail to you
tomorrow. I took it to Chili's thinking I could leave it there, but I
was confused, I guess. I apologize. It will be out tomorrow. Take care
and we are still praying!

Good
Friday Morning guys! God has given us another beautiful day & another
opportunity to send our love to you & prayers for Ben's continued care &
recovery. So glad to see that short update because he wanted to play.
For you today - Many, O LORD my God,[are]thy wonderful works[which]thou
hast done,& thy thoughts[which are]to us-ward:they cannot be reckoned up
in order unto thee:[if]I would declare & speak [of them], they are more
than can be numbered. I have not hid thy righteousness within my heart;
I have declared thy faithfulness & thy salvation: I have not concealed
thy lovingkindness & thy truth from the great congregation. The great
congregation is all you have touched at St. Judes & across the
country/world via this website. It is what draws everyone back again &
again. God bless you all today mightily! Love, T&N

Hi Ben!
My parents and I miss you and we hope you are doing well! I will be back
in Memphis on October 14, because I have to have an MRI. Pray that they
don't find anything! I pray for you all the time, and I know Mommy and
Daddy do too. I miss you!

Tom, it
was good to have you on the radio with me this past Monday. But it was
even better to hear Ben say "hi" to everyone...it broke my heart!
Hopefully the Chili's fund raiser for St. Jude was a big success! My
wife and some friends went there for lunch that day. We love you guys
and will certainly keep praying! Let me know when you want to come on my
show again.

Thinking
of you all today, sending love and prayers to you. Have been remembering
lately how much God cares for us so deeply and intimately -- nothing is
unseen by Him. He meets us where we are, no matter where that may be.
Praying strength and protection over you r marriage and family. Praying
for the heart of brave Eli. Praying for and believing in healing for
Ben. His love will not let you go. He will hold you forever...and you
are safe in His arms. Loving you.

Tom,
Jennifer, Eli and Big Ben, Sorry I haven't posted a message on the
website in awhile. I was going back and reading what people had posted
the last several days, one caught my eye, when the man said Tom your Dad
would have been proud of you. That man is so right, your Dad is proud of
you. Take Care and God Bless you all, Love you all, Lisa

These
last few weeks must be extremely stressful. Leaving the comforts of the
Target house and working on your own home. I will all work out and I
will continue to check on your friends at St. Jude and pray for them.
Disney. You dont have to be a kid to want to be at Disney. :) Mickey is
my favorite too. :) Glad you are able to go and I am sure it will be a
great trip. You all deserve it, the boys will LOVE it. If I can help in
anyway let me know. Continuing to pray and Believe. God can.
