I know when my mom is with me I feel a peace inside that is hard to explain. Some of the burden lifts and my heart feels a little lighter. Do whatever you need to in order to get through. Praying for your relief in the days ahead and praying for Tripp's pain to go away.

I hope these passages I found can replace the words I lack... I love y'all and am constantly praying for your sweet angel.<br /><br />"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future" (JER 29:11).<br /><br /><br />"Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see" (HEB 11:1). <br /><br />Mat 6:8 —for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.<br /><br />Rom 8:18 — For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.<br /><br />Mat 19:26 — But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.Juliannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04441447972200562021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5348155237652648174.post-76312726252631544782010-03-18T09:06:21.829-05:002010-03-18T09:06:21.829-05:00Courtney - you are an amazing mother, many prayers...Courtney - you are an amazing mother, many prayers for you and your family.Carahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09553482445437278307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5348155237652648174.post-67039597717316269132010-03-17T23:42:20.986-05:002010-03-17T23:42:20.986-05:00Hey Courtney and Randy, it's Tristen from ball...Hey Courtney and Randy, it's Tristen from ball. I just want to let y'all know that I read Tripps blog all the time and I can't even begin to imagine what y'all go through on a daily basis for that precious baby. You are a wonderful mother to him and I admire you so much for that. Reading about Tripp everyday makes my heart break for y'all. When I think things are tough my way and then I come on here and read how your sweet baby is suffering every single day, it makes me realize how precious every single day is with family. Tripp is the luckiest baby in the world to have parents like you and Randy and God would not have chosen y'all to be his parents if he thought y'all weren't strong enough. I pray for Tripp to be painfree and for you and Randy to stay strong for him and for each other. Y'all are such amazing parents and Tripp was given to y'all for a very special reason.<br /><br />Love,<br />TristenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5348155237652648174.post-80496454089177929282010-03-17T22:03:20.109-05:002010-03-17T22:03:20.109-05:00"Lord God,

I think about Tripp, you & Randy more often than you know, but especially today for some reason. This lead me back to catch up on Tripp's CaringBridge which of course lead me to your blog. From one mommy to another mommy... My heart is broken, tearfully bawling my eyes out on your behalf, praying...<br /><br />OH Dear Lord, PLEASE give Tripp, Courtney and Randy PEACE physically, mentally and emotionally. Dear Father in Heaven, we know only YOU are the Master Healer and beg you to wrap Your Loving Arms of Comfort and Healing around this dear & precious family. I pray this in your son Jesus' precious name ~ <br /><br />Courtney, I wish I could carry your burden, even if just for a time... to give you peace of mind. A year ago we sat at baseball fields all summer... watching your belly grow and waiting for your precious baby angel to arrive. God chose you because Tripp would need a special mommy. But God also knows your every thought and heart ache... and he knows your every tear. <br /><br />It's with love that I think of you tonight, Courtney, Tripp's special & chosen mommy, as I cry for you and my heart breaks for you. I am praying for Tripp's comfort and his mommy and daddy's comfort and peace of mind. <br /><br />With Love,<br />~ Lori TassinPinkCadihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10172339959352709031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5348155237652648174.post-88768489553529676912010-03-16T22:11:14.155-05:002010-03-16T22:11:14.155-05:00Hi Courtney-

I can't imagine the pain Tripp's in, yet his little smile is just the sweetest thing. What a brave guy! And I can't imagine the pain you and Randy are in just having to watch your baby hurt. But you two are as tough and brave as Tripp, and you're giving him the best care possible. I'm praying for Tripp to heal and be out of pain, especially with his eyes. And am praying that you'll have rest and peace to be able to take care of him.<br /><br />Love from TX,<br />Laura<br /><br />PS - my 5-yr old, Jackson, prays for Tripp and Jonah every night - he won't let me leave the room until he's prayed for them!
