William is in every prayer at our house...Hi Julie,<br /><br />William is in every prayer at our house. Our hearts ache that he, and you, have to go through this. Thanks for telling us the good with the bad!!<br /><br />Erin Hakes told me that William is wondering about how to beat Lego Batman on his DS. Jacob tells me that you go on-line to find the answers to specific thing you can't get past. If you want me to find out where you go, I can. Also, I have 5 boys who are all proficient in Lego Batman and Lego Star Wars on the Wii, so if you think it would help, when William is ready, I can bring Adam (and maybe a brother) to come help him out/play with him. <br /><br />Love, KhristineOur Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11287449581971585962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3050454783329206238.post-69971214012943980342010-06-04T21:22:39.718-07:002010-06-04T21:22:39.718-07:00We are thinking and praying for you guys.

Thank you for keeping us informed...your strength has buoyed me and caused me to ignore the little irritations of daily life.

She emailed a bunch of her friends today to pray for William and sent a link to this blog. I read it all and it really touched my heart. About 15 years ago my little sister had a doohickey too. Hers was in her neck and she had it when she was four and it came back when she was eight, just Williams age. She's 25 years old now and AMAZING. William and your entire family sound amazing too. All of you are in my thoughts and prayers. <br /><br />Its funny because 15 years ago before blogs and emails I remember reading bags of cards and letters from hundreds of people I didn't know but were praying for my family. It did make me feel better and give me some comfort. This is why I had to write you!<br /><br />EmilyAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15884750635758598184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3050454783329206238.post-26269219779919344082010-06-04T14:56:03.780-07:002010-06-04T14:56:03.780-07:00You guys are so amazing!

I put together a small packege of themed things to do a page or two and it really took our minds off things to create and remember stories. Sometimes I cried telling them because it made my heart hurt to remember Chey without problems but it was also fun to hear her memories of events. Let me know if he'd be interested in that because I'd love to send a care package! Also, there are some online ds game rentals that run like netflix. Game changes help too. Cd players are great too when they want to tune out but can't keep eyes alert enough to watch movies or play game. <br />This too shall pass.... We pray for you nightly and Tristin remembers you in our food blessings! WE LOVE YOU!!!JamieM.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11062777584864732315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3050454783329206238.post-42383196728763774062010-06-04T12:03:19.174-07:002010-06-04T12:03:19.174-07:00Julie, my name is Whitney Redfern and I live in Vi...Julie, my name is Whitney Redfern and I live in Virginia where I just finished nursing school and am now studying to take the state boards. My mom (who lives in Chico and is the sister of Khristine Pettingill) gave me your blog address and I just finished reading every post. Five boys (not sure how many or if any girls), that's wondeful!! I'm hoping for six kids:) Big families are my favorite. <br /><br />Like many others have said, I will fast and pray for you and your sweet family. Thanks for blogging about you life.
