We rejoice with you upon hearing that Bennett is off of CPAP! We are hopeful that you and Kelly will get to hold him for several hours this weekend and to spend time telling him how much you love him. And how much we love him.
We are truly inspired and humbled by your faith in our Father and his plan for Bennett and your family. As you already know, Bennett is one very special little boy. Many people live their whole lives unable to bring the glory to God that Bennett has in just 41 days. In these past 6 weeks, many miracles have been witnessed, and God has been praised throughout.
We know that God is not yet through with Bennett, and we continue praying for his complete recovery and for his ride home in the Camry very soon.
We love you all, and we feel blessed to know you. |

| We are headed away on vacation today and don't know what we are going to do without daily access to this site! You all have become such a big part of our daily life. In conversation and especially in prayer. In light of the latest news, we say....to God be the glory. As you all do, we trust God. Bennett has already given us a lesson in that that will NEVER be forgotten. Love you guys! |

| Our God is so Big and Strong. He can do anything. Bennett will be the boy God wants him to be. His brain is still growing and a lot of things can change very rapidly. As you both know from experience. May God continue to Bless Bennett, heal his lungs, so he can start therapy soon. Thank you for how strong you are in your faith and I agree all you have to do is love him as you both do. Children are a gift from God. You both have been such a witness of your faith to everyone on this web site and churches around the USA. May God bless you and keep you. |

Hey Little Ben - I bet your mom & dad already sang this song to you but if I were there, I would sing to you, "Our God is so BIG, so STRONG and so MIGHTY, there's nothing our God cannot do..." Somehow I feel he has special plans for you and as a mom of two kids that have special needs, I can tell you that there are things so wonderful about them that came with the difficulties they have and I wouldn't give up those wonderful things to not have the difficult ones - they are a blessing and I thank God for them. I thank God for you also and I love you SO MUCH.

| Hi - I attend Brentwood Hills church with your parents, and although we've never met, I have come to know you and your family through this website. You all are truly amazing, and I am inspired by your faith. I pray for all of you, and especially for Bennett. You are right, Bennett is exactly the person God intends for Him to be. He says that before he formed us in the womb, he knew us. Bennett has already touched so many lives. We'll be waiting for a visit from you all to Nashville, where we can love on Bennett ourselves! |

Love and Prayers from California!! Kelly and Travis, I am constantly amazed and how strong, positive and faithful you both have been throughout this entire process. Hold on to that faith now! Bennett has already shown us all what a miracle truly is, he is strong and courageous, and no doubt will continue to blow us all away with the awesome man he will become. That nurse said "Bennett will be whoever God wants him to be" and I think he already is. This little boy has already shown so many people all around the country and world God's work in action... at such a young age he's already giving his testimony. Just remember, no matter what you heard today, or you hear tomorrow, this is the same little boy you dreamed of and planned for, and though that dream might have looked a little different, this is the exact little boy that God wanted you to have.
Please take care of eachother, (the southern girl in me wishes I lived near by so I could make you a casserole) don't forget to take care of yourselves so you can take care of your baby. All my love!! |

Travis and Kelly
I am a glass half full person, never a half empty one. I went through 2 1/2 years with my husband and my glass was always half full. Its the only way to look at things and right now, my glass is half full for Bennett. Specialist always give us the darkest picture and if it comes out bright, then we all win. Bennett WILL come out okay. It may take time but hey, you have it to give. My prayers are constant and will continue. Love, Gram Jeanne |

Dear Kelly and Travis,
I've been keeping up with Bennett's progress and how the two of YOU are doing as well. You've been in my prayers and I know the church is praying as well. We always remember you at Ladies' Bible class on Tuesdays. I know today was difficult for you to hear, and I appreciate the beauty of the nurse's statement, that Bennett will be exactly who God wants him to be. But the Great Physician isn't through with young Bennett yet! So we'll keep praying and keep hoping in the Lord for your son's complete healing. May our heavenly Father bless and comfort all of you tonight.
Love in Christ,
Kathy Forrest |

Travis & Kelly,
When my fiends in S Bend & Dallas write or call, they continue to ask about Bennett and are continuing to hold him up in prayer, as I am. My intecessory group in S. Bend is tried and true in difficult situations. God bless you...I know that He will honor you for your faith in this situation.
Love,
LS |

| Doctors are under a legal duty to alert you to potential issues that might arise and they have continually done that. Doctors are very gifted in many ways and we are thankful for that. But, doctors are not in control of our universe. God is in control and we must never loose sight of that. He alone will decide the outcome for little Bennett. We must keep praying for a total and unconditional recovery. That is what we expect and we know that He can deliver. Science confirms that brain tissue can regenerate. Without Faith it is impossible to please God. God's word declares that we are wonderfully and miraculously made. Let's stick with that!!!! |
