Blessings dear friends and family,
Praise God for his mercy and goodness. We are so blessed with Erin's healing and her successful return to work. She is so grateful to be back to normal activities. Looking back on everything she has been through this year, it's amazing (grace) that she is feeling so good. Everyone says her color is good and she looks so healthy. Who can look at this miracle and see anything other than a loving creator renewing her body and spirit?! My heart is so full, I can hardly bear it sometimes when I think back on all she has been through. God has worked daily miracles in all of us and taught us how to depend wholly on Him and Him alone. When the going is toughest, and we are at our lowest and weakest moment, that is when God's strength can be felt. Why do we wait to feel God's strength, listen to God, or turn to God? He has always been there waiting and wanting us to let Him be a part of our everyday life. How much easier it would be to walk with Him instead of trying to do it alone. There have been many lessons learned these past 8 months. I may spend a lifetime sorting it all out. One thing that is crystal clear is the love we have been shown by all of you. Thank you so much for your support along the way. Our cup runneth over! I think it is time to close this blog now. It is hard to let it go, but the time feels right. May God bless you all for your prayers and love. hugs, janet

It has been such a blessing to be able to pray with and for you these past months. My faith has been strengthened also during this time. I rejoice when I see Erin at school. I truly am thankful that God's Grace is Sufficient! I love you all.
Janet,
We have never met in person, but Erin spent several summers working with us at MDSI and obviously we feel the same love and respect for her that everyone who she touches does. I have followed your blog and all the ups and downs and miracles of the past year. I just wanted you to know that I have never witnessed a family more dedicated in their faith and love of God. It truly is inspiring and it is no wonder why Erin has turned into the wonderful young woman she has. Our continued prayers and love will remain with the Blonshines!

Hey there Kiddo,
What an incredible journey!! We have all been deeply touched and blessed by it all. It has certainly bought me closer to our Savior and has taught me to depend on Him more than ever. Lot's of love to all you Blondies and we'll of course stay in touch.
Uncle Ron
Amen!
bJanet,
Thought of you, googled you and found this blog of yours. Since you have closed it you might not get this comment but... I am so glad to hear that God has done such an amazing miracle in Erin's life. I am so happy to hear she is well now. I can remember her as a young child always with a beautiful smile and those dimples which she still has. I saw her picture on the internet. She has grown up to be a beautiful young woman. May God continue to bless your family and keep you in His love and care.
