I'm saddened even more to hear this...Courtney, <br />I'm saddened even more to hear this news with everything else all of you are going through. I pray for God's will for Tripp, you and Randy. I pray everything works together for God's Glory. I cannot imagine the tremendous & unbelievable stress, strain on a marriage. I also know you and Randy both love your precious Tripp and even though Tripp's needs are special and unimaginable, TRIPP IS A SPECIAL & UNIMAGINABLE BLESSING! I know beyond doubt that you and Randy have Tripp's best interests first. I pray you and Randy can cling together as ONE & the Lord's will be done in your marriage. I admire you as a mother and know God chose you to be Tripp's SPECIAL MOMMY!!! <br />With Love and Hugs for ALL of your family, especially for SPECIAL UNIMAGINABLE TRIPP! <br />~LoriPinkCadihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10172339959352709031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5348155237652648174.post-62198319156668965652011-02-07T22:32:36.172-06:002011-02-07T22:32:36.172-06:00Hugs and prayers from a mommy in SC.Hugs and prayers from a mommy in SC.Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09796252399519801824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5348155237652648174.post-11906682522692848912011-02-07T08:59:06.882-06:002011-02-07T08:59:06.882-06:00Just want you to know that I check your blog on a ...Just want you to know that I check your blog on a regular basis...I don't know you, you don't know me.

My heart aches so bad for you as a mother, please know that you and Tripp are so strong and carry so much that when you feel you can't anymore god is always holding you both up. But by your faith and words I know you already know that.

He's just a beautiful little kid and I'm sorry to hear that he's going through this rough patch. Although I imagine you know how to treat EB better than standard doctors and nurses, do you think that hospitalization would help? Does DEBRA have any new suggestions on care? I can't imagine how painful and frustrating this patch must be for both of us, especially with no easy answers. Just know that people are thinking of you (even lurkers!) and that they're pulling for your brave little man.A. and S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03476334575305858417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5348155237652648174.post-53172984490387854332011-02-05T13:40:53.171-06:002011-02-05T13:40:53.171-06:00This comment has been removed by the author.A. and S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03476334575305858417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5348155237652648174.post-51620812904162366482011-02-05T13:15:58.589-06:002011-02-05T13:15:58.589-06:00Mama hang in there.

It is hard to do, but with that mom of yours you can. You and Tripp are life livers, lovers and fighters, and can do it. These precious moments of now are shaping you forever. How you are handling all this has been absolute Grace. Hardships make some turn to so many horrible things: distractions, demons, or selfish acts to name a few. But, in you, they are defining you and the rest of who you will be in this world. It is hard, but it is meaningful.<br /><br />Like I learned the hard way, struggles show true colors. And know what you found out? You SHINE girl. YOU. 110% of the time. You and Tripp shine brighter than the population put together, and God isn't the only one who sees it. We ALL see it and are moved and inspired. And in others, sometimes those true colors are not so bright. And maybe the dull colors could have remained hidden for a while, disguised. Smoke and mirrors. But truth comes out. Eventually. Unfathomable as it is, the unsightly true colors are often found in the hearts of those we thought we knew or that loved us the most. Being apart is hard. HARD. But sometimes, it is easier than being together. So, I applaud you for doing what you need to do to have support and unconditional love 24/7. <br /><br />If anyone, ANYONE else in your real life or in Blogland gives you grief for this situation please, honey you give them my contact info or give me theirs. ;)Maheenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07300536772838683296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5348155237652648174.post-32805848506183069242011-02-05T11:17:25.302-06:002011-02-05T11:17:25.302-06:00The tears fall down my face ...

Your patience, love and enduring strength in caring for Tripp is an inspiration to us all ... to be better mothers ... to be better people.
