Hi All!

I am continuing to pray for you daily, and hope this note finds you at peace and feeling well... Sydney, I think you are now sitting next to Holden LaForce! Anne wants you in her class so much!!! We love you... Melinda

Hi Sydney,
It was such a privilege to talk with your father at the Regatta in Fort Worth last month. As friends, we want our friendships to point us to Jesus and draw us closer to Him. I left that conversation so blessed by your father's words about you, your mother, your brothers and our Lord! He truly delights im each of you!Your family is a beautiful witness of God's grace and love for us all--thank you! The Evanses continue to pray for you daily.
Love, Mrs. Evans
p.s. It was fun to watch your brother at the Regatta, too--he's a terrific rower!

Hi Thweatts--I am amazed each time I check in with the amount of faith you all have--especially Sydney. The Lord listens to each prayer that is lifted up and never leaves your side. What a comfort to know we are a part of His flock. Our family is praying for Sydney's healing and your strength.

Blessings to you all...
Taylor, Jennifer, Colin, Emily, Sarah and Mary

Hey Sydney,
I made a tape for you so you can practice with your flag and see some of the moves we're learning now. I hope you like it. Has your brother made the pole yet? I can check on you borrowing one if you need it for practice.
Your friend,
Christina

What a blessing and gift from the Lord to actually get to "sneak a peek" at his gracious work on Sydney's behalf. I just picture you, Lynette, walking on the water, through the storm, focusing on Jesus and counting on His promises (His WORD)---indeed the DAILY BREAD as your provision---what a beautiful picture of your faith to Him and to a "cloud of many witnesses". I will continue to pray you will see His hand at work on Sydney's behalf. Be encouraged!! Libby

Sydney, I am thinking of you and praying for you daily and have made a decision to take all of my tips from my work for this year and every year after and give yearly to the Lukemia Fund in honor of you.
I am praying for strength and a strong immunity system to develope in you Sydney. You have such a strong family and friends that are all Praying. So, you rest and get well....

James and Lynette- don't forget I am here for you and praying for your family. Love Jeannie.

Sydney,
I am praying for you every day. I am glad you are not in any pain. :) I hope you will be able to come home soon. Our family continues to pray Psalm 121 for you!
In Him,
Madeline Ezell

I AM WRITING A QUICK NOTE, TO GIVE AN UPDATE, PLEASE FORGIVE US FOR NOT UPDATING SOONER. SYDNEY IS A MIRACLE IN MY OPINION. OTHER THAN HER FEW DAYS OF BLINDNESS AND A FEW MOUTH SORES SHE DID GREAT THROUGH THE VERY STRONG CHEMO. WE WENT TO CLINIC ON TUESDAY FOR PLATLETS AND WHEN WE GOT HOME SYDNEY HAD FEVER. WE WENT BACK TO THE HOSPITAL AND ARE STILL THERE. SYDNEY STILL HAS A GREAT ATTITUDE AND BESIDES THE ONE DAY OF FEVER SHE FEELS VERY GOOD. THE DOCTORS CAME IN TODAY AND ASKED IF WE WANTED TO GO HOME AND SHE SAID "YES" UNLESS THAT IS A PROBLEM. HE TOLD HER IT WAS A PROBLEM BECAUSE SHE MIGHT GET ANOTHER FEVER AND SHE HAS NO IMMUNE SYSTEM AND IT COULD MAKE HER VERY SICK. SHE SAID O.K. WE'LL STAY! SO WE ARE STAYING UNTIL MONDAY AND WILL SEE WHERE SHE IS AT THAT POINT.
THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR CONTINUED PRAYERS, WE ARE BEING COMFORTED.
LOVE, LYNETTE
PSALM 23
(SYDNEY'S CLASS IS MEMORIZING THIS PSALM)

P.S. ONE OF THE BABIES WE ARE PRAYING FOR (JESSICA) IS IN REMISSION AND IS GOING HOME. PRAISE THE LORD.

Hi Sydney and Lynette,

My name is Jennifer Waters and I met the two of you last spring at Mary Linda and Jonathon Lipe's home (I live across the street from them). I was probably with my big black dog, Jackson nüè, who the Lipe kids adore.

Mary Linda and Sarah told me about your diagnosis and I haven't stopped thinking and praying for y'all since then. They wanted me to know because a week later I was going to hike the Grand Canyon in the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Hike For Discovery program and they were one of my sponsors. HFD is the LLS's new adventure fundraising program that prepares people, from beginners to seasoned hikers, to experience a natural wonder in a special way. I couldn't help but think and pray for you and your family the whole weekend.

So what I am telling you this after all these months? I have become even more active in the HFD program and would like to ask you and your family something...... (Mary Linda might have already mentioned this to you, Lynette) I am coaching the next HFD team (their goal is to raise $110K for LLS again) and I was wondering if Sydney would be one of the team's Honored Heroes. Each season the team has one or more honored heroes whose story is told (and followed) and meets the team, if possible. I understand that Sydney's immune system will not allow that right.

You have the most amazing strength and courage and spirit and are such an inspiration to everyone who has heard your story. I would love to share it my team as they train for the hike and fundraise to help find a cure.

You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Praying God's minute by minute grace for you all. His grace is sufficient. Blessings, The Waggoners

Hi Sydney and Lynette and Thweatt family!

Keep on doing great Sydney and come up to the Headmaster's office when you are ready!

Blessings,

Pat Sissom

Sydney said it well, "God has already healed me". She most likely caused most of us too be better people and more appreciative. May God continue too bless Sydney. Zelda & James Rains

Sydney and Family,
I read your letter and I am amazed at your faith and how well Sydney is doing. I pray and hope that she continues to raise her immune system so that she can return to NY. Seeing life in the eyes of a child teaches us so many lessons that we often forget as we get older. Sydney's sheer faith in God and knowing where her healing process is a true gift from God. Her eternal optimism is overwhelming. I am sending a lot of love to her and all the family and just know that I will continue my daily prayers for all. Love, Aunt Patty

Sydney, Did you know the more you pray for someone, the more you love them! You are loved by many people and I love you too!!
Your Aunt Marcee is so proud of you and she tells us stories about your strength! She also tells funny stories... the way only Marcee can!! You really are one of my heros, so are your mom and dad!
Love you all,Susan
