I am
Harry's 1st cousin and he just told us sunday about Ben. I don't watch
tv so I never seen the News. I remember when Janet and Harry got
married. You Know things like this breaks my heart. to see children go
throught this and how hard it is on the family. But he wants us to put
it on his shoulders and let him take the weight of of our. That is not
easy to do. I have never had to go through this but I lost a baby that I
was pregant with and that was really hard but to have to go through this
would be even harder. But with the Lords help we can get through
anything. He said in his word that he would not put more on us than we
can bear but it says bear alone. That means to lean on him.My sister
Thelma and Debbie told me about the web site and I have been on it for a
while crying for you all.And tried to sign Hanna's too but it wouldn't
let me that family is really speacial. You all keep Holding on to each
other and your mom and let the Lord carry the load for you. God Bless
Love and Prayers Cheryl

Hi Ben:
Praying for a good course to be set tomorrow for your treatment.....know
God will be leading the doctors in their decisions. So thankful about
the good news about the tumor growth.....we'll continue to pray that the
radiation will "zap" it. Praying that your pulse is now under control,
but hated that you had to go through the pain of the drawing off of the
CSF fluid. Know your Mommy and Daddy would rather have taken the pain
than you....you're such a brave little guy. You're constantly in our
thoughts and prayers for God's healing. We always ask prayers for Eli
too.....everyone should have a "big brother" like him. With love and
blessings, Carole & Jim D

Tom &
Jenn: We listen closely to the small still voice so that what we share
in this electronic hug is what is needed. Sometimes it is very different
from what we are feeling but trust God as he directs us. Have you ever
heard Josh Groban's song - You Raise Me Up? You raise me up so I can
stand on mountains, you raise me up so to walk on stormy seas. I am
strong when I am on your shoulders, you raise me up to more than I could
be. He just continues to raise you both up-how evident to those of us
waiting for each update. Regardless of what each new day brings,
regardless of the emotions of every difficult report to hear, despite
all your eyes & ears take into your heart each day, he continues to
raise you up to walk on stormy seas. We were in an incredible service
last night & the presence of God was tangible. We know in our spirits
that something happened in Memphis last night when we were praying
around 10 p.m. We love you all, T&N

Just to
let you know we are still praying for you all, especially for the
confidence and peace that only God can give. A good night's sleep would
probably help also! We are sad that Ben and all of you have to undergo
so much, but grateful that you have such a strong faith in God and His
goodness.

Tom and
Jennifer, I'm catching up on your adored Ben tonight. Frankly, I feel
awful about being so selfish to check in only weekly when you find the
strength and faith to brave every up and down hour to hour. I know that
I would somehow find that strength too if it were one of my children
going through this........yet I'm just overwhelmed with worry and
concern and frankly angry that you two who have given so much to my
family are going through this. If it is of any comfort - know that so
many are praying for Ben - and are inspired by your faith and strength -
there truly are saints and heros in this world - no olympic athlete
could hold a candle to your stamina! WE all love you!!!! love, Christine

Hey guys.
Just finished praying for all of you. Especially for relief from pain
for Ben. It has to be gut wrenching as mom and dad to see him go through
the pain. I am praying for His mercy and grace to sustain you as you
care for Ben. We know our Father knows and feels what Ben is going
through and He will give him the grace to get through this. Thank you
for sharing this with us all so that we can see and glorify our God as
He works in your lives.

We are
praying that God will give you wisdom and peace concerning every
decision that needs to be made. Thank goodness God's wisdom is far
greater than ours and that He is our resting place were we can find
peace.

Team
Bowen (I think that is fair to say) is one tough bunch of people. The
Dr's, the nurses, friends, family and everyone that prays for Ben is
part of that team. When all is said and done I hope that Team Bowen has
won a gold metal and that would be for Baby Ben to be in his own home
and healthy once again. This team of people around you are angels in
disguise and they are working hard to see that Ben wins for all who are
watching and waiting to see what the next step will be. I continue to
check your site many times daily for encouragement. BEN and FAMILY
continue to fight and work hard you will get your GOLD! You are in my
thoughts daily Good Luck with your treatments the rest of the month!
Hugs n Kisses....Katie

Sweet
Benjamin, Your daddy was so right when he said that God has a plan for
your life! It was His plan to prepare for you a family who loves you so
dearly, and who loves and trusts Him with all that is dear to their
hearts! What a testimony of faith your parents are living out before the
world right now! I praise God for their example through this most
difficult time in all of your lives. As for this family, we love you
even without knowing you, and we commit to pray daily for wisdom and
healing and strength and peace for you and your family.
