Checking in every day and praying every day for your whole family. Isn't God good to let you capture Brea's wonderful smile in that picture? We who are praying are encouraged by it! Remember who holds your family and Brea in His palm. God be with you today and every day.

Hi, I heard about your little Brea on the Holt board. I am Mama to three little girls - two from China, one from S. Korea. I want you to know that we are praying for Brea. It is so difficult to hear about what you are going through, but it is such a blessing to know that she is in the care of the Great Physician. It was so nice to see that picture of her smiling! She is so precious and is such a strong little girl. Thank you for keeping your website updated. We won't stop praying!

I was sent to your web site by a friend and wanted you to know that my whole family is praying for Brea. Her beautiful smile, even through all of the tubes, is the very best thing I have seen today!
Thinking of your family and praying for you all, Hilary from LA

OK you two....you're really going to make all of us cry now. You guys are just precious and I feel like I'm listening in on a sweet conversation that I shouldn't be in on. Yet again, it gives each of us a glimpse of how hard this is on all of your family. I just wanted to let you know that in 2 days time we've received $405.00 already. I couldn't believe it when I went to the mailbox today. The checks are from all over the country. It is such a blessing to be helping in this way and I'll keep praying them in along with praying for each of you! God is so faithful and He will continue to supply your every need!! HUGS, Anita

Honey, when I read your message last night I cried and then laughed...never did I think you would be sending me messages on our website but then again I never thought we'd be "living" 8 hours apart either. I just want you to know that you and the kids are always on my mind. Even with all that we've been dealt in the last few weeks I still feel like the luckiest woman alive to be married to the love of my life and to have three beautiful children. I know that God has a plan for our family and I know that God is in control of all that is happening and HE already knows the outcome of this situation. I know he hears our prayers for our sweet little peanut and I know that He loves her even more than we do. I am honored to be your wife and the mother of our children and I never want to take for granted the tme we spend together as a family. I love you more than you could ever know and I know that He will use this experience in some way to glorify Him and to make our marriage and family even stronger. Al my love always, Mary

Mary, I heard about your trial through the Phillips family who brought home little Grace from the same orphanage as your Breann. They are asking everyone to lift you all up in our prayers. We serve a mighty God! I only today went to your site and read about your ordeal. I am amazed at your faith and praise God for it! He alone is the lifter of our heads! We have 2 biological children as well, and have a 16 month old little boy waiting for us in China! We hope to travel in August to bring him home. I will not pretend to understand God's ways or His plans, but I know that He is a good God and that He is worthy of our trust. I pray that He will bring about good from what seems like bad to our eyes and that not only will Brea get well and have an awesome testimony, but that God will be glorified and many will turn their hearts to Him in this process. I pray also that He will continue to be your strength when you are weak and that He will hold your family together as you endure and that He will provide for your every need according to His glorious riches in Christ Jesus. May you experience His supernatural peace each day. In His love, Holly McDaneld

Mary, Danny and family,
I have been reading all of the updates about Miss Brea and I am so happy that you finally got to hold her! I continue to pray for your family. Please know that the whole Bethany family is praying fervently for healing for Brea, peace and comfort for your family, and skill and care for the nurses and physicians caring for Brea. I was so sorry to hear of the little one that passed away. Please give my condolences to that family.
God bless,
Claire

Wow! It has been an intense night and day for you. A huge miracle is going to happen. It is a miracle that already 2 hearts have come up as possibilities! The Heart Team at ACH are awesome! You are where you need to be. We too were very impressed by the incredible compassion on the parts of the doctors and nurses when our children have been hospitalized there. There are so many people praying for Brea, God is listening. He will answer in His own time, and in His own way. You may never know the reason you are going through this, but you know He has a good reason. Stand firm in the faith---progress has already been made, prayers have been answered. Fathfully, Cathy

Mary, I am a China Mom from Colorado. I recieved this link from a friend and wanted to write to encourage you and let you know that you are in our prayers. Thank goodness God is a miraculous God. I praise the Lord for bringing her home when He did. There is nothing better than mama's arms when your sick. Give Brea hugs from Colorado. I will end now and pray for you all immediately. In His Care, Melondie
