  1. Matthew and Maria: I am Jennifer Heath’s sister. I am praying for your sweet boy, Cristian, and for you. Our prayer group also will be praying for you throughout his treatment. I am so sorry you are going through this difficult trial. We will be standing with you.

  2. Fatigue, Discomfort, Discouragement are merely symptoms of effort, which lead to Progress. –A tweeked Morgan Freeman quote.

    We work hard for the new generation this is just another task you will succeed at in Cristian’s path. Like our fathers and mothers before us we are the key to our kids success, never falter, be strong and blaze the path with them. — Big Matt

  3. Hello Sweethearts. I have been sitting trying to think of something to put down that would help or encourage you in someway.. . nothing. I am at a loss. And I thought, “so what would you say if you were with them.?” Nothing. I would just wrap my arms around you all and maybe that would be enough for right then.

  4. Lean on each other now more than ever. Lean on family
    Lean on friends. Most of all lean on faith that you are not alone. It is beyond our understanding that this illness has taken over Cristian’s body and control of your lives. This isn’t your “new” normal. This is the very difficult path that has to be travelled on the way to your “new” normal. You better than any of us know the steps. Just hold on knowing that once the cancer has been destroyed it will get easier because then fewer weekly doses of chemo. I love you all and keep praying the LORD watch over you.

  5. Hello Sweethearts. GOD speaks to us all. One verse that reminds me of that is Psalms 46:10 “Be still and know that I am GOD.” HE is always there. We just get busy sometimes with everyday living but also in times of trouble when we become so overwhelmed. That’s when we need to step back, take a deep breath and wait. You will have many instances when you will need to step back, take a deep breath and wait. But HE will not disappoint. HE is there always. I wanted the blanket to bring comfort and encouragement. I never thought it would come in the form of a wet blanket in a washer… our LORD has a sense of humor and unusual ways of getting our attention. I love you and pray always for you all.

  7. Hi Sweethearts. Just sitting here, thinking of ya’ll and how far you have come in such a short period of time. Cristian has come home from the hospital and ya’ll are together under one roof. Cristian no longer needs twice weekly chemo tratments which is sooo good for him but also takes a burden off of you. He is almost through the “induction phase” of this horrible disease so the fear of a return to the hospital will lessen. You have a long way to go but don’t forget how far you have come. I love you and keep praying. HE answers our prayers

  9. What a journey this has been for your family and that sweet boy. Watching from the sidelines, I am so proud of both of you as parents. The example you are giving to others of what a true partnership, a marriage, and a bond of love to work together as one. What an example to all friends family and those you are unaware of watching from the sidelines.

    I am so thankful that God chose you and Maria to be Cristian’s parents. God entrusted Cristian to you both as he knew the strength, courage. Love and care you would give him.

    God has so much in store for your family. This isn’t an easy journey by no means. It is a hard walk to watch your baby suffer and nothing you can do but comfort and love. You both are remarkable!!! God is going to continue to see you through this journey. This hard walk of a journey makes Kings and God has such superior huge plans for Cristian. It doesn’t make much sense right now and you ask why God? Why my boy? But when the future is here and the greatness of God’s shines on Cristian’s life as well as you and maria….you are gonna realize God had you in training for something so big!

    It is amazing to see God’s hand on your family. It’s amazing to watch your faith build, your confidence in God grow, your trust in God to know God has your back in everything- to see your total trust in God flourish. I’m so thankful you have this journey noted. You can reflect back on the beginning to now and to the future to see the hand of God and how God moved as God drew each of you closer to him.

    Trusting God to move mountains. Produce miracles. Though we are weak. GOD IS STRONG.

    Praise God. Praise God. Praise God…

    I’m so excited to witness the windows of heaven open up for this family. Total restoration. Total healing. No more for any future generation. And the blessings to be poured out on this family.

    I love ya so very much!!!!
