Thank you for signing Rachel's guestbook. Yesterday I was looking at your page and I thought of how hard that must of been that he died right before his Birthday. It is so unfair. You are right about the double whammy, I know it is still hard. Hang in there.
How old is your youngest now?

Hi Rachel,
I found your caringbridge site and Kennedy's website through the aol support group. You've done a great job with it. I'm thinking you are located in the DFW area. If so, I thought you might be interested( if you have not heard of it already) in the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation Ride for Kids. The motorcycle ride is Oct 5 2008 at Grapevine Mills Mall. Email me if you are interested in any more information. You can also go to www.pbtfus.org

God Bless,
Yoli

Dear Rachel, just read your son's page- Kennedy's Korner- wow, you are inspirational. I am scouting around for support and prayer for my friend's little one Ruby, she is 10 months old and being treated for medulloblastoma- it is not looking good- yet we know that isn't the end of the story- she is still breathing- just, my prayer is her mum meets Jesus through all this, expereinces his peace, that divine peace that passes all understanding- cos none of this stuff makes sense does it!? i THANK gOD FOR COURAGEOUS SOULS LIKE YOU WHO ARE ABLE TO SHARE THEIR STORY. Thankyou and may your family experience major blessings in 2008.

Thinking of you and Kennedy. I can't believe it will be 3 years soon. Thank you for signing Rachel's guestbook. Your message came at a time when I needed it most. I was struggling about my Faith and the things you wrote really helped me. I too miss our chats, the baby has me so busy, right now she is playing with some toys, so I actually have a few minutes.

Take care and please know that I think of you and your son all the time.

I found your website as I was searching tonight. Searching for answers. . . just as I have been since June 19, 2004 when my son was diagnosed with a brain tumor. He knows the Glioblastoma Multiforme too. His name is Ryan,he will have his 14th birthday on May 21st, and we have a caringbridge website also. (caringbridge.org/visit/ryanotto)
The night before he had his second surgery December 15th of last year, one of the resident surgeons came into the room and explained to me that all we were doing was buying time. That he had already beat the odds once and that it would keep on coming back and he estimated that he only had maybe 1 1/2 years to live. It is now only been 5 months and doctors are telling me there may not be that much time. We are supposed to make the best of the good days and have as much fun as we can while we can. I am still in shock...Where are my other 13 months??? After all of this time, he has only just now begun to actually have signs of brain damage. His right eye doesn't want to open all the way and he is dizzy when he turns his head or gets up too fast. We decided this week he can't go back to school as it is just too tiring. He mainly sleeps and lays on the couch. (Eating me out of house and home thanks to decadron LOL). I read the poems on your Kennedy's website and I felt a bond with you even though we have never met. I have to know some things and start making plans for things a mother should never have to do. A mother should not have to bury her children. I would really like to talk with you one on one if you are interested. I have so many things going on in my mind and maybe only a mother would understand. I sure as heck cannot find any answers from friends and most of my family as they avoid us like the plague because I guess they don't want to think about the unmentionable or they can't handle the way Ryan looks. I just don't know. I hope that I can be as strong as you are and continue being a cancer advocate after my baby is cured from cancer, when he goes to meet Jesus. My whole life is dedicated to my son right now. I have a whole computer jammed with websites and links to information about cancer. I even made my MySpace page totally about Ryan and finding friends all over the world who share a common feeling...CANCER SUCKS! You can visit if you like www.myspace.com/uneek1966. I feel like I am an expert on this brain tumor...except that I don't know how to stop it. I hope someone does soon. I hope the studies my son has been in has taught someone a little bit more about this horrible thing that they can learn how to end it. I hope and I pray that no other mother has to go through this agony. Knowing when you are looking straight at your child who seems to look healthy... only he isn't ...he is dying. God Bless You and your beautiful family.

Dear Mr. Hallmark,

I am writing to you from heaven, and though it must appear,
A rather strange idea, I see everything from here,
I just popped in to visit, your stores to find a card,
A card of love for my parents, as this day for them is hard,
There must be some mistake I thought, every card you can imagine,
except I could not find a card, from a child that lives in heaven,
they are still a parent too, no matter where I reside,
I had to leave, they understand, but oh the tears they cried,
I thought that if I wrote to you, that you would come to know,
that though I live in heaven now, I still love my parents so,
they talk with me, and dreams with me, we still share laughter too,
memories are our way of speaking now, would you see what you can do?
my parents carry me in their heart, their tears they hide from sight,
they plants flowers in my garden, there my living memory dwells,
they writes to other grieving parents, trying to ease there pain as well,
so you see Mr. Hallmark, though I no longer live on earth,
I must find a way, to remind her of her wondrous worth,
they need to be honored, and be remembered too,
just as the children of the earth will do,
thank you Mr. Hallmark, I know you will do your best,
find a way to tell them, how much they mean to me,
until I can do it for myself, when she joins me in eternity.

I know Christmas must be so hard for you although I can't comprehend how difficult it must be.

All my love,

Viks

I share in your sorrow. My younger brother, my twin spirit, left this world May 30, 2006. He had gliblastoma multiforme grade 4 when he was diagnosed April 12, 2006. We only had him six short weeks later, but he lives on in our hearts. Perhaps he has already made acquaintance with your Kennedy. My brother, Chet, loved to fish and hunt and would often mentor younger boys who had no father figure to influence their lives. God bless you.

Rachael,

Thank you for writing to me about my brainhospice.com site and that you had found it helpful when Kennedy was battling. I discovered your site through a bit of searching. How wonderful to "meet" your family, including your wonderful angel. I have three children, the youngest of whom, my son Kyle, was also born in 1994. Mom to mom, though I cannot imagine your pain, this sure does hit close to home for me and I'm sending you a long-distance hug. I read back through your journal entries. What a touching image it is that little "Nick" came to visit Kennedy and the other children. I've heard so many similar things over the years that it doesn't surprise me anymore, but it always fills me with awe. It's a comforting thought that none of us leaves here alone and that heaven sends little companions back when we are most fragile. Maybe Kennedy is another child's angel somewhere. Wouldn't that be something?

It was a pleasure to visit your site for Kennedy. I appreciate so much that you took the time to write. I will think of your brave boy next month when you celebrate him.

Day is done
Gone the sun
From the Lakes
From the hills
From the sky.
All is well,
Safely rest.
God is nigh.
Fading light
Dims the sight
And a star
Gems the sky,
Gleaming bright
From afar,
Drawing nigh,
Falls the night.
Thanks and praise,
For our days,
Neath the sun,
Neath the stars,
Neath the sky,
As we go,
This we know,
God is nigh.

LETTING YOU KNOW THAT YOUR THOUGHT OF ON MOTHER'S DAY.KEEPING YOU IN MY THOUGHTS AND IN MY PRAYER'S ALWAYS.

A Mother's Day Wish From Heaven

Dear Mr. Hallmark,

I am writing to you from heaven, and though it must appear
A rather strange idea, I see everything from here.
I just popped in to visit, your stores to find a card
A card of love for my mother, as this day for her is hard.

There must be some mistake I thought, every card you could imagine
Except I could not find a card, from a child who lives in heaven.
She is still a mother too, no matter where I reside
I had to leave, she understands, but oh the tears she�s cried.

I thought that if I wrote you, that you would come to know
That though I live in heaven now, I still love my mother so.
She talks with me, and dreams with me; we still share laughter too,
Memories our way of speaking now, would you see what you could do?

My mother carries me in her heart, her tears she hides from sight.
She writes poems to honor me, sometimes far into the night
She plants flowers in my garden, there my living memory dwells
She writes to other grieving parents, trying to ease their pain as well.

So you see Mr. Hallmark, though I no longer live on earth
I must find a way, to remind her of her wondrous worth
She needs to be honored, and remembered too
Just as the children of earth will do.

Thank you Mr. Hallmark, I know you�ll do your best
I have done all I can do; to you I�ll leave the rest.
Find a way to tell her, how much she means to me
Until I can do it for myself, when she joins me in eternity.

Just stopping by to let you know we are praying for you all!

These all had faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them a far off were assured of them, embraced them and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth. For those who say such things declare plainly that they seek a homeland. And truly if they had called to mind that country from which they had come out, they would have had the opportunity to return. But now they desire a better, that is a heavenly country. God is not ashamed to be called their God, for He has prepared a city for them.

What a joy to hear such a likeminded faith. I was only at the site for a minute and I am already encouraged. It is almost 3 in the morning, and I've been having one of "those" nights where I'm up missing my daughter. I decided to scroll through the guestbook on Adrienne's site and pop in on other caringbridge pages listed there and see who I might encourage, but you have encouraged me. You are in my prayers.

Blessings,

Hi,
I am sorry for your lose. I too lost my five year old daughter Hayley. She died Dec. 24, 2005. She had a diffused intrinsic pontine glioma (brain stem tumor). I miss her so much the pain is unbearable at times. God had showed me that he was going to take her before I even knew there was a problem but I didn't want to accept it. He showed me Visions of her wearing one of her favorite outfits laying in a casket. She was diagonsed June 21, 2005. When she died that night I asked God "I don't understand did I not have enough faith?" He then showed me the Vision again. Which let me know it was not a lack of faith and it didn't matter what treatment we did He was going to take her. At the funeral one of my sisters closed her eyes to pray and saw Hayley wearing a beautiful white dress holding someone's hand and smiling. Later when she went to tell her husband about it He said I bet you saw the same thing I did. He said she was holding Jesus' hand and Hayley waved by to him. I know she's with Jesus and she's happy and healthy. But I will never get over losing her. God bless you.

I just wanted you to know I shared the poem "Please say his name" to two other mom's who have lost their sons. They were so blessed and touched by it. I hope that is ok? I lost a brother when I was a young girl, and I KNOW firsthand how much it meant to my mom when people talked about him.

You have such an amazing faith, and walk in God's supernatural GRACE. I pray 2006 will bring you many wonderful memories of Kennedy and God will continue to use you to be such a source of inspiration and HOPE to so many. I know you have been to me!

Keep holding on to your hope,

I know this is so terribly hard for you and the pain is unimaginable. I know it all too well.

Can you imagine the smile on Kennedy's face as the angels sing Christmas carols? How beautiful that must be.

Wishing you a joyous holiday and a New Year filled with love, peace and hope.
Our hearts and prayers are with you and your family.

Hi Kennedy's family~ I'm on PBTAngels and daybyday hosted by acor.org. Your Kennedy was 10 as was our William. So many great 10-year-olds in heaven. Wm will be 11 next May, so I think Kennedy is a bit older. Many prayers and blessings for this young man.

Rachael,
I just finished reading the updates and was so moved. Your poems were just beautiful. Although I don't sign the guestbook often, I want you to know how very often you and your family are thought of and prayed for. What a great sense of comfort you must have to know that so many love and care for you.

I will be praying for the healing you were speaking of. I don't think any of us can ever know your pain, except those who have experienced it firsthand.

I still have drawings Kennedy made for me, and I love to look at them and remember him. Precious memories. Now he's a precious angel--very missed and remembered.

Love and prayers,

You know I love you all so much and it is hard to believe my Acy is starting high school! Alexis will be the prettiest young lady entering junior high this year---that is hard to believe too!

Thank you so much for sharing that with me. I like to think it was Rachel too. Rachel does have a pink dress that was her favorite. If you go on my site, and click the caringbridge photos, the top photo she is wearing a pink dress. you should look at it and see if that looks like what you saw. I went into your journal history and i couldnt find the day you were talking about. was it in your personal journal? I think it is so awesome that you had that dream and i am very glad that you shared it with me. it gives me hope....hope that i need. thanks.

I have been thinking of Kennedy and I stopped by to see if you have updated. I think I said this before but whenever I look at Kennedy's picture or think about him...I get such a good feeling about him in Heaven with Rachel. I think Rachel and Kennedy are friends now and that is why I get that good feeling. I know...I sound strange...I just don't know how to put it into words the right way.
Your son is very special.

Rachael, I wanted to share this with you. It is called the 23rd Psalm-Defined:
The Lord is my Shepherd-(That's Relationship!)
I shall not want-(That's Supply!)
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures-(That's Rest!)
He leadeth me beside the still waters-(That's Refreshment!)
He restoreth my soul-(That's Healing!)
He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness-(That's Guidance!)
For His name sake-(That's Purpose!)
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death-(That's Testing!)
I will fear no evil-(That's Protection!)
For thou art with me-(That's Faithfulness!)
Thy rod and Thy staff, they comfort me-(That's Discipline!)
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies-(That's Hope!)
Though annointest my head with oil-(That's Consecration!)
My cup runneth over-(That's Abundance!)
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life-(That's Blessing!)
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord-(That's Security!)
Forever-(That's Eternity!)
We've got to face it--he's CRAZY about us!! With that kind of support, how can we ever go wrong?

Dear Rachel, Acy & Alexis-
It has been a while since I too have visited the site. Kennedy's darling picture, I miss him and Acy and Alexis. The family reunion will not be as bright this year without him there. The kids have usually so much fun, this year will be different for them, I feel there will be an emptiness. I am so sorry Alexis did not make cheerleader--I know she will indeed blow them away next year. Her gymnastics will help a lot. Tell her I am very proud of her . and tell Acy I am proud of him for his baseball--isn't he handsome?? Also let them know that I love them and I hope to see them soon!! Rachel and guys hang in there. Only time and God can heal a hurting heart.

Some days I try to avoid them because it is painful to identify with the pain of missing your child who has gone to Heaven before you. But sometimes I just have to keep looking so I'll know who needs my prayers tonight. May God give you peace!

Just wanted to say hi and let you know that we continue to think about you. This part of the journey is so difficult and frustrating. Even when you think that you are at peace with it all, a wave just comes along and wipes you out. With God's goodness and grace we are picked up and dried off. We then walk with confidence that God will be there to pick us up again and again.

May God's light shine on you. May you see Kennedy's smile when you close your eyes. May you dream of Kennedy playing while you sleep.

Hello Kennedy. I just want you to know that little KheliJo is up in Heaven just looking for a sweet playmate to hang out with. She just got there in December so you may not have met her yet. Since ya'll both no longer have the ugly GBM tumors you can run, laugh and swing and enjoy the eternal sunshine there. I hope you find each other. Maybe someday you can come to your Mommy through a medium like Kheli did to me. I hope I'm not too bold in suggesting that and hope that I haven't offended anyone. Your Mommy loves and misses you very much. Send her a sign that you are watching over her and want her to smile again.

I know to put your own feelings and grief on the back burner for your children isn't the easiest thing to do when all you want to do is either cry, talk, shout or even sing. However, you are intune with how Acy and Alexis are feeling and with this unselfish act it makes it harder for yourself..but believe me you will cry, talk, shout and even sing for Kennedy. I pray for you and yours. For healing and guidance. As you said, the Lord is ahead of us on our path of life. I love ya'll, Mima

Hello!

Our home is still in chaos and my hand holds a paint brush way too often but we're getting there. Moving during the holiday season really isn't as easy as I thought. Thank goodness LaRae was very understanding about the lack of Christmas decorations. We had a tree with lights and stockings. But we also had a set of grandparents and that was the best!

LaRae has adjusted beautifully. I can't even imagine how difficult it was for an 8 year old to walk into a new classroom in a new town after Thanksgiving. She was awesome! Her teacher is a Godsend to us. We are behind in math but do a little extra homework almost every day and we're slowly getting her caught up. It would help if she had some excitment or even a bit more interest in the subject!

We had a cold white Christmas. It melted after a few 50o days. We got snow last week and it too is gone thanks to more of those 50o days. Turning colder and maybe snow again tomorrow.

We have family coming starting in February and they will be here one right after the other until late March. It will give us a great chance to check out the area...multiple times!

Wishing you all the best in 2005.

Hugs from Colorado Springs!

I've checked up on Kennedy for quite a while now. God is personally taking care of a healthy happy Kennedy...now our prayers are for his loved ones here on earth. I know that Kennedy will be looking down on you all over the holidays. He's probably chuckling that he knows what gifts await you under the tree. You are such a sweet family. My prayers are with you!

Dear Rachael:
I have followed Kennedy's journey, and, although I'm sorry he is gone from earth, I'm glad that he is with Jesus. Kennedy will always be with you, remember all the good memories that you made as a family. Remember his courage, his wisdom so beyond his years, and his love for his family. Rachael, I just think that you are a great Mom. I'm so sorry for your pain, and pray that you will find peace and comfort.
Love Kathy

I am sorry. In the previous post when I said----allow yourself to feel all your emotions. I meant to say to that NOT feel any guilt over it. I mistyped and left NOT out.

Olney, TX - Monday, October 25, 2004 5:19 PM CDT

Dear Rachel--
It is so hard for even me to let go and I am the Great Aunt. I know your loss of precious Kennedy has to be unbearable at times. My Mother--Kennedy's Great Grandmother lost three children during her life. She told me that you go through every emotion there is. At times you will be sad, angry, frustrated, depressed. It will take time to deal with Kennedy's passing. You need to allow youself to have whatever emotion and feel any guilt about it. You have lost a precisous child. We know he is running and playing healthy as ever with Jesus, but we miss his physical touch. I want you to know that I am praying for all of your family and Byron's family. May you all enjoy the memories of Kennedy and one day rejoice with him in heaven.

Dear Rachael and family,
We give thanks to God for seeing you are hanging there. Even our daughter has left seven months ago, the pain still stays in our hearts. Their siblings are really amazing and sometimes beyond our understanding. Knowing not any word will comfort, the only thing we can offer is our heartfelt prayer. May God fill your hearts with peace and beautiful memories of your beloved Kennedy until the day we meet again. Please know we remember your family always.

Rachael,

I am so sorry to hear of your personal struggle. That fog will lift when you are ready to deal with life the way it is now. I can't imagine the pain and loneliness you are dealing with. I hope that with the love of family, friends and your faith in God, you will see the new path you will be going down in life. If for now that path isn't clear to you, that's okay too. You deal with your grief the best way you know how and it's not going to be the same as anyone else. We are all individuals and we handle life in our own way...there is no right or wrong way.

Know that I care about you and pray for you and your family.

Hugs,

A Wonderful Way To Explain Death:

What a wonderful way to explain it.

A sick man turned to his doctor,as he was preparing to leave the
examination room and said,

"Doctor, I am afraid to die. Tell me what lies on the other side."

Very quietly, the doctor said, "I don't know."

"You don't know? You, a Christian man, do not know what is on
the other side?"

The doctor was holding the handle of the door; on the other side
came a sound of scratching and whining, and as he opened the door, a dog
sprang into the room and leaped on him with an eager show of gladness.

Turning to the patient, the doctor said, "Did you notice my dog?

He's never been in this room before. He didn't know what was inside.
He knew nothing except that his master was here,

and when the door opened, he sprang in without fear. I know
little of what is on the other side of death, but I do know one

thing... I know my Master is there and that is enough."

READ AND RETURN May today there be peace
within you.

May you trust God that you are exactly where you are meant to be.

"I believe that friends are quiet angels who lift us to our feet
when our wings have trouble remembering how to fly.

Peace be with you,

Happy Birthday Kennedy!

Dear Rachel and family, I would like to share with you the lyrics from one of Twila Paris' songs...
~~~~~~~~~~~
A Visitor From Heaven

A visitor from heaven
If only for a while
A gift of love to be returned
We think of you and smile

A visitor from heaven
Accompanied by grace
Reminding of a better love
And of a better place

With aching heart and empty arms
We send you with a name
It hurts so much to let you go
But we're so glad you came
We're so glad you came.

A visitor from heaven
If only for a day
We thank him for the time he gave
And now it's time to say

We trust you to the Father's love
And to His tender care
And in the everlasting arms
We're so glad you're there
We're so glad you're there

With breaking heart and open hands
We send you with a name
It hurts so much to let you go
But we're so glad you came
We're so glad you came

Twila Paris- Beyond A Dream

Peace be with you all.

I am so sorry for your loss. I only just recently found Kennedy's website. I lost my own son to a GBM brain tumor in 2001. He was born 12/1/94. Kennedy's photo on the first page of this site reminds me so much of him when he was sick. In this short time, I've seen what a wonderful mother you are, as I know exactly what you have been going through. I have been praying for you and your family and will continue to do so.

Dear Rachael and family,
Nothing is more difficult than seeing our child take off. Kennedy knows how much you love him and God knows, too. You have done the best you can do. Knowing "Our times are in Thy hands" we are sure that God knows the best time. He is preparing Kennedy's and your hearts in His embracement. Before Esther's final departure, her Mom has ever made the same prayer like you did. We know how heartbroken and tough that prayer is. However we also learned that prayer is full of abundant love, mercy and grief. We are still here praying for your family. May God's faithfull grace and peace accompany you during this gloomy and storming time.
