We thank you forever for your prayers and your faith on behalf of our little family. We can not thank you enough for helping us to call down the healing powers of heaven to fix our broken little boy. We know that Bronson lives today because it is Heavenly Father's will that he be allowed to stand as a testimony of His miraculous power . We hope to make the most of this second chance. There are truly no words that can express gratitude of this magnitude. Just joy... Pure joy!
Love- The Staker Family

Absolutely beautiful and remarkable! This story touched me from the beginning. I am so happy that sweet, beautiful little boy made it through the journey he did and returned to his family. Bless you all!
YES! Miracles do happen. GOD is Good.

I dont know you and you dont know me but I feel so much love and happiness for you family. I came accross you blog from a friend of a friend I read it and cried. I cried for you and I cried cause the familar way you described your son in the tube is all to clear in my mind. My son was about 12 months old when he and his 3 yr old brother were in the tube I swear I was only gone for an instant but when I returned he too was floating on his back, his stomach as hard at a rock, his lips blue and his eyes wide open. I was blessed to get there in enough time I through him over my shoulder and hit is back and prayed out loud and begged to my Heavenly Father for him to breath as I listened to my 3 yr old ask me if it was his fault me knowing that it was fully mine. Thankfully he throw up all the water and his color came back and he was breathing on him own. I will never forget that day and the fear and regret that I felt. I am so much more careful with the tube. I am happy that your sweet little Bronson is a miracle. he is darling and you are a wonderful mom, dont let what happened question your ablity as a Mother. I am sorry I just wrote a novel to a perfect stranger but I couldnt help but let you know that even though I dont know you or your family your story will be in my thoughts and prayers. Heavenly Father has given you a special son, and your experiece has made me want to love and hug my children more.
Thanks

I didn't hear about your story until after Bronson was back from his coma. I am thankful for the Priesthood power in his little life and the prayers that healed him and blessed your family. While Bronson would have been safe in his Heavenly Father's arms, I am glad that you have the healing of having him here and now and don't have to live with your recent tragedy. This faith experience will be a blessing to your family always. We had an infant son die 16years ago, but his short life has brought blessings without measure. We all need to cherish and love our children and teach them to have faith in the Lord Jesus Christ who has made it possible for us to be together forever, even though the are temporary absenses. Thanks for sharing your story. Welcome home, Little B, you are quite the miracle boy. Thanks be to God who is still a God of Miracles.

Wow... incredible video! What a wonderful way to finish my Sunday! I believe in the power of prayer. What a great opportunity it was for me to pray and fast for Bronson, even though I have never met him, and seen mine, and MILLIONS of other prayers answered. Thank you for sharing.
Bronson is a miracle! You have a very sweet family. I am truly touched by this story. Thank you for sharing your lives with all of us. It has built my faith in Jesus Christ. Families are eternal! Can't wait to have my own little one...you are a wonderful mother and help me to feel like I can do it too. Thanks Sara!
Sara - I found your blog through Natalie Norton and I've been following Bronson's story ever since. Having a 19 month old son myself, it's been like watching him as I've seen your sweet boy's miracle progress. Not only have I been touched and refreshed by your willingness to share your feelings, but I've also been blessed to see your family's love. It's clear that Bronson's brothers adore him and I can only hope to see that love bloom amidst my children as they grow. Congratulations on Bronson's recovery! Thanks so much for giving us a window into your family. I know that I will hug my kids a little tighter and say prayers of thanks a little more often. = )
Your beautiful miracle is wonderful. Thanks for putting this video together to share the miracle with the world.
At your time of distress you gently wrapped your arms around strangers and let us experience from a distance your miracle.
I read through your blog and found myself only loving your family and YOU.
It is wonderful to see Bronson smile and walk and be Bronson.
May your family continue to recover. If there are demons(self inflicted), may they disperse and leave peace and joy.
YOU are a beautiful mother with beautiful boys!
I'm a boy mom of 5 boys. It's good stuff!
I don't know your family but have kept up on Bronson's recovery and just cried tears of happiness at your video!!! I could feel for a second probably 1% of the worry and pain and then pure joy you must have felt! I am SO happy for your family!! Continued prayers for Bronson! Thank you for sharing!!
Happy Valentines Day to the Stakers!! May God bless you every day ... crying tears of joy to see you walk out of that hospital with Little B ... God is good.
Blessings always,

I am overjoyed at Bronson's miraculous recovery! I have 2 boys myself, my youngest is 16 months and I am so touched by your faith. Being a mom is not for the faint of heart, that's for sure! I am thrilled your family is together at home once again. Best of luck!

That was beautiful thanks for sharing your story.. I am a better mother today because of it..
I couldn't have LOVED your video more! I am so grateful that I was able to follow your story. Thanks for sharing your MIRACLE!!!
This experience of yours makes me cry everytime I read about it. I am SO glad that Bronson was able to have a miracle that brought him back. I cry thinking about how it would feel to lose a child like that, and I cry thinking about how you felt.
He is such a cute boy. I loved what you wrote in a previous post "Forgiveness is sweet". That is one of the things that are so precious about our little ones. They know how to forgive and love unconditionally.
I have been following your story since the first post and your family has been in my prayers. So happy to see that all is well. He truely is a miracle! Much Love to your family.
What an unbelievable story! We have been thinking of and praying for your family. My name is Sarah and I have a little boy named Bronson as well, and in watching your video...we had the same Physical Therapist that you had at PCMC!!! Much love and congrats on coming home!!! Love-Sarah
That was beautiful! Love, Love, Loved it! Congratulations Staker Family. God is soooo Good.
Love,
Sarah
Truly Amazing! I am so happy you got to have a second chance with your little B. Don't take any little moments for granted!!
A miracle indeed. Our Heavenly Father is there waiting to bless all of our lives. I am so happy for your family for your wonderful blessing! What a sweet little boy and what a message he must have to share. He was spared for a reason...
God bless you!
This is a beautiful story, I was sent to your blog by a friend on facebook. I'm from Grand Junction, CO. I'm so glad to hear of the happy ending you've had. Reading of his journey has reminded me how important it is to have faith in your life. Hope all continues to be well with you!
What a beautiful movie! Thanks for sharing your lives with us! So many prayers were offerd on Baby B's behalf for this miricle to happen! We are so happy he is home sweet home!
I have followed Bronson's story since the beginning and my faith has grown tremendously. Thank you for sharing this amazing story and the wonderful video.
I have prayed along with countless others as I watched this story unfold, and I shed my own tears of joy while watching this video. The Lord is so good to us, so good....indescribably good. I am so happy that your beautiful Bronson has been allowed to continue his life on this earth, and with full capacities intact....thank you. Thank you for sharing your experience and allowing yourself to feel our prayers.
Wow, what a wonderful video....I love happy endings!! What a great testimony of the power of prayer and faith!!!
May the Lord continue to bless your family!

We are happy to hear that dear Bronson is doing so well. My 3 boys and I read, cried, watched and cheered through your story.
What a scary, heartwrenching, heartwarming story. Our prayers will continue to be with your family.

You have touched countless lives in sharing this miracle with the world! What an amazing family you are. YAY for little Bronson!
I just want you to know that My 10 year old daughter and I have been reading your blog. We were up at Primary while you were there. We also got to leave the same day. My daughter has relapsed With AMLcancer) I want you to know that You were always included in her prayers! We are so Happy for you!
Just watched the video, cried the ENTIRE time. The story of his recovery is SO similar to my little niece, same nurses and Doctors, same mind blowing MIRACLE just a month earlier. My little Ty guy and I have been praying for your family since we heard about your story. I was SO happy to see little Bronson WALKING through the halls of PCMC. What a Miracle God has given your family. Our little Baylee will be on the news too, if you are wondering about her story, tomorrow 2/16 at 10 pm :)
Such a beautiful story! Thank you for sharing and making others aware. You've been in our prayers along with many others we know. Welcome Home!

I bawled through the entire video! I am so happy for your miracle! This video illustrates what a true miracle Bronson is, and also the Lord's hand in all things. There is great power and healing in our Father's hands, and how tenderly he loves each one of us. I view the world differently now--and my children. I am more patient, more loving. We have to make each moment count!
Thank you for sharing your blog with us, for strengthening our testimonies, for allowing us to witness this miracle unfold with you and your family, and for allowing us to see the tender mercies God offers.
Miracles Happen. . .

Wow. Wow. Wow. What an awesome God. My prayers will continue to be with your family. Oh sweet Bronson I'm so glad you're still here.
Took it up a level from plain crying to sobbing when I watched this. It is a rare moment for me too Sara to be rendered speechless, but I am. My heart is so full
WE BELIEVE!!!
What a little miracle, I have been reading your story for the past little while as my cousin Michele Gleed had mentioned it. I can't imagine the joy in your hearts right now. Heavenly Father surely does have a special plan for this little missionary!
God is good. thanks for sharing.
HOLY CRAP, PRAYER WORKS.

Oh so happy for you, your beautiful family, and sweet little Bronson! I've been following his progress through your blog to find what can only be described as a miracle and a testimony-builder!
Thank you for sharing with all of us!
Honestly, my heart has ached for the anguish you've had to endure through the "unknown", although I can't imagine the strength and all other positive experiences that have come out of this!
What a beautiful video! I cannot tell you how happy I am for your family to have your little boy back. You have all been in my prayers everyday. Heavenly Father is truly incredible and I am so grateful for his love in all of our lives. Good luck to you all and through this I hug my own little miracle a little tighter and I am a more diligent about not becoming distracted or complacent. Thank you.
Crying tears of Joy and am in total awe of the power of Prayer and Faith. Thank you for allowing us go through this very difficult yet inspiring journey with you.
Your sweet Bronson is one special little guy! Please keep us updated on his blessed second chance. Much love to you and your family.
you've inspired people across the globe. I am grateful for little Bronson's recovery. There truly are great things in store for him!
Thank you for sharing this amazing story. Every time I'm in the middle of something and think, "oh I'm sure the kids are fine" I think of little Bronson and check just to make sure. You have increased awareness, touched hearts and changed lives. Best wishes to you and your beautiful family.
How beautiful! Thank-you for sharing this with us so we can SEE miracles. He truly is a miracles to behold.
Thank you for sharing your journey with us. I am fighting back tears taking me back to when it was my 18 month old fighting the same battle. Proving all the doctors wrong. Proving that GOD IS GOOD! GOD does answer prayers.
ENJOY your second chance. I thank GOD everyday that HE allowed our Angel to remain with us.
Simply amazing.. I am the mother of a deceased child and I am so thankful that he survived.. no mother needs to feel what I've felt. Thank you for sharing your story. I'm also a pediatric nurse and stories like this make me love my job even more.
Thank you for being willing to go through all of this to make the rest of us a little bit stronger.
I just heard about your story from my sister in Portland. Our prayers are with you and your family (richland, wa). It is such a miracle!
What could be a better Valentine's Day gift than your own personal miracle?! I watched this whole video with a joyous heart and for some reason was particularly emotional seeing the pathway of balloons welcoming him home. I am so happy and grateful that your sweet little Bronson has recovered and is finally home with his beloved family! May God continue to bless you all! =)
I cant even tell you how much our family prayed for your little boy. He is so beautiful, and this is truly a wonderous miracle. Watching that video (with those beautiful songs)....well, I cried buckets again : ) Then I went and hugged my three little boys so long and tight they started complaining. We are so grateful that your beautiful family is whole again ; )
Love, Melanie Segalla and family
As a mother and a nurse...I am crying tears joy and happiness and am totally and completely in awe of your miracle that is Bronson!!!!!
Wow...what an amazing little guy...
I love my baby MORE because of your experience. Life is fragile and I appreciate being able to experience this with you. (Friend of Ben Jones)
I am so overcome with emotion right now. What a beautiful video, beautiful family, and beautiful little boy. Heavenly Father truly does work miracles in these latter days. Bronson is a sure testimony of that. Thank you for having the courage to share this difficult and inspiring experience. I'm sure so many testimonies have been strengthened because of it. Best wishes to your sweet family.
Woah, Matt! That was just beautiful. Thank you for sharing. I feel such joy from this miraculous story. I can only imagine how you guys must feel. Amazing.
I don't know you or your family, but the courage and faith you had and showed was a true testimony to me of the atonement and how much our heavenly father loves us. Thank you for being such a strong example and I am so happy that your baby is home and safe and in your arms once again. May heavenly father help you to make this second round better then it ever could have been. Congratulations Bronson. you are a blessing in this world.
Thank you for sharing your story. We are so happy for your cute family.
Thank you for sharing your miracle with us! God lives, and is a God of miracles! We are so happy for your precious miracle.

I just read about your story this morning. I am so happy for you that your little boy is okay! I can't even imagine. Thank you for sharing your story and reminding me {on a day that I needed it} of what's truly important. Thank You and I'm so happy for your family. That video was amazing by the way....tears are still coming =)

I feel so much joy in my heart for your family and how they must feel right now to have Bronson still here. What an indescribable blessing, for you and for everyone who hears of his story.
I read your post about the accident first and then saw that you had updated since that day. I am sooo glad to see your son has recovered. What a blessing and a miracle. I am so happy for all of you. I hope he continues to improve and that there was no permanent damage done. I pray that that day becomes a distant memory and that your heart heals.
Much love and prayers
God is so good! Thats all I can say!
Thank you for sharing your tragic-turned-beautiful story. It has strengthened my testimony of the Lord's ability to work miracles. Your commentary along the way was beautifully humble and showed great faith. I pray that if I am to endure a trial such as this that I will have faith like yours to sustain me. Your baby Bronson is such a doll and your family is so sweet; I'm so glad all is well with you now.
Sara, thank you so much for being willing to share your story. You are so gifted in being able to write down your thoughts. I sobbed reading the story of Bronson's near drowning, the guilt you felt (you shouldn't be so hard on yourself), the support of your neighborhood, ward, family and especially your husband. I'm so thankful for B's miracle, that you have more time with him on this earth.
I feel blessed to have such a friend. You and Matt made me so proud to know you...the way you handled such a tragedy with faith and loving patience. We are overjoyed that Bronson is home...that you get to have him whole again in this life!! I'm sorry you had to endure this for the sake of all of us. We are all better because of what your family has taught us. Thank you for boldly sharing the power of prayer and the reality of God's love for us. We love you!
Wow! What a great video. Thanks for keping us all updated.
THIS BOY IS AMAZING AND TRULY A MIRACLE!!!! He brightens my day! I have watched this amazing video of him again and again because I can't get enough of his beautiful smile!
Much Love
Emma
Wow Sara, I was so excited to see little Bronson going home. I burst into tears when I saw him walking! and I cried again when I saw the balloons at your house. Oh what joy yes pure joy. And all those prayers. I am so happy I am crying. Thanks for sharing your story!!
You have me crying all over again! What a wonderful video - put together so beautifully. I'm so happy for your family and for little B. May God continue to bless you all.
Thanks for sharing your miracle with the world. You faith has stengthened mine. Loved the video and especially loved B walking out of the hospital.
Hugs from a stranger in Texas!
So beautiful. I'm so happy you got your miracle!
what a miracle! i am so happy for you and your family.
The tears won't stop! What a sweet sweet boy and how wonderful a miracle you have received. May our Father in Heaven continue to bless your lives with happiness. You have a beautiful family and those boys are so lucky to have parents like the two of you who love them so so much. Take care and God bless.
Love,
The Wilsons
this video really touched my life, thank you for sharing! I believe in miracles and your son is proof.
Joy indeed!
I haven't even been able to get through the video yet because I keep tearing up! I am so happy for your family. AMAZING. It's truly a miracle.
What a perfect child, and what a miralce. Heavenly Father is a merciful God, how blessed to know of God and of the Gospel. What a sweet tender mercy, I know this will change your life forever, it has already changed mine.
I am so grateful for your family and your example of strength in prayers. It is so nice to see you home and happy.
Miracled do happen. Thanks for sharing your story.
Dear Staker family,
We don't know you and you don't know us. We do have many mutual friends as we moved into the ward you lived in in Provo. We have cried and prayed together for little Bronson. As we have watched his miraculous recovery our faith in the healing power of our Savior Jesus Christ has been strengthened. We are so grateful for Bronson's recovery and so happy for your family. He such a cute little guy. We love you!
Thank you for sharing your story. I'm so happy you have a happy ending to such a scary ordeal. Your family is beautiful!
Dear Stakers,
You don't know us but we wanted to express our happiness at how well things have turned out for little Bronson.
My wife and I and our two little boys, 3 & 2 live out in West Texas. We heard about your blog the other day from a friend out here who told us what a moving story it was. It came as quite a surprise to us to read it and find out that you are the same people that my mother had been talking about to me for several weeks.
My mom is neighbors with Bronson's Grandpa Larry - he was her bishop as well I suppose. She is a nursing professor at UVU and at Larry's behest did her best to personally follow up on your child and ensure that her students were doing everything they could to help.
It was quite a coincidence and caught us rather off guard to discover that the little boy whom we had been praying for was the same one who our friends here in this dinky town in Texas were also holding vigil for.
We're beside ourselves with happiness to see the pictures and videos of this little man walking interacting and and behaving in such a remarkable way. From the general descriptions my mother was telling me of what happened and the extent of the potential damage I personally had little hope if not faith. I was humbled and very grateful to know how well B is.
My wife cried for 30 minutes reading your blog yesterday. Mostly I think because we have boys of the same age and perhaps have taken those little things for granted as you mention in your posts. It could happen to anyone, though I don't know that the miracle would. Thank God.
Our best to you and your family and our continued prayer for your child's well being.
Most Sincerely,
The Bradburys
WOW. I am SOOOO happy for your sweet family. Woo hoo Bronson!!!!! What a strong and handsome boy. What an amazing miracle!!!!!!! My son was just at PCMC for 4 days with his asthma and they are just amazing. I knew that you guys were there as well and I was praying for your little babe to get better. It makes me so happy that he is doing so well!!!
I just found your blog tonight and started at the beginning of your scare. Tears were flowing. Then to watch this beautiful video and to see your son, healed, just made me sob. Thank you for sharing your story so openly. I have a little boy just a few months older than Bronson and just tonight I walked away from him in the bath to grab his pj's and diaper. Thank you for helping other Mom's out there by sharing your story. Your son is a beautiful little boy and Heavenly Father must have big plans for him. What a sweetheart. I will def. be watching your blog to see him grow.
My friend, Suzette Astle, emailed me shortly after your son had his accident- our 10 month old son aspirated the bottom third of an almond in 2007 and was gone for over 5 minutes. It was a horrific accident just like yours...I gave him the almond...I am so happy to see Bronson's miraculous recovery. It brought back too many memories when I watched your video but I am so happy that he is doing so well. I remember a lot of difficult days and sleepless nights after his accident when we had been released from the hospital (like you now) filled with gratitude and anguish over what the future must hold. I've felt that strong lift of the power of prayer and I'm so happy to see how your neighborhood has rallied so much in support of your family. The only advice I have for you is to remind your other children that your baby's accident was NOT their fault- for some strange reason they take it on as something they were strangely responsible for. We have 6 children and our oldest was 13 when it happened- all but our (then 2 year old) thought they had some part in his accident- "I didn't get the bottle fast enough," to "I should have helped you more..." Remember to mention it about every month for at least a few months. Anyway, I'm sure you get advice all the time, but I wish you the best of luck. Our baby went back to being hypotonic like a newborn with his muscle tone and had to relearn EVERY thing (mild damage as a result of the anoxic brain injury) but is totally age appropriate now at almost 4! Just a naughty little stinker that gives kisses all the time and tells me how pretty I am! I'll keep him around forever (ha ha)!
Thank you so much for sharing your story with so many of us that you don't even know! You have touched my life in a profound way today - thanks for that! I love how you summed it up at the beginning of the video: "We found ourselves choosing to chase out the fear of the reality in front of us..." Thanks for showing us how to exercise faith in even the most difficult of circumstances!
What a beautiful video!!
I cant even try to say that I didn't sob through the whole thing!
My heart goes out to your family and I am so thrilled to see Bronson doing so well!
Prayers from RI!
congrats on a new beginning with newfound faith. hope he has no lasting affects, what a wonderful story.
I haven't been able to follow your story for several days as my computer hasn't been working right. I just watched your video and cried through the whole thing. I'M SO HAPPY FOR YOUR FAMILY!!! God IS a God of miracles. If the world needed proof, here it is. Thank you for sharing your story and allowing the world to exercise - or maybe find - their faith and pray with you for Bronson's restored health. What a miracle.
Thank you for blogging your miracle from 1st plea to last. And thank you for posting that beautiful video. What a testament of a loving God and the power of prayer.
What a miracle! God bless!
Wow. Thank you for sharing Bronson's story. That was so touching and such evidence that miracles do happen. Congratulations to your sweet family.
Congratulations I am so HAPPY for Bronson and your family. I have been following you story for awhile now and am so gratefully our prays where answered and you got to take you beautiful boy home. He is amazing taugh baby boy. Congrats.
what a beautiful video. I read your first post about B's accident a few days ago and hadn't realized your blog had been updated with his progress. I've been praying and was so hoping he was doing ok. I was relieved to find your updates today and see just how great he looks. Your story was so touching and as a fellow mom I have also walked away to get clothes, just know we've all made those mistakes. What an loving and forgiving Father in heaven we have. I am so happy for your family. thanks for sharing your story!
I was a student nurse in the emergency room when bronson was brought it, and have been following your blog to keep updated. I'm an so happy everything worked out for you family.
WOW... What a beautiful video! I too prayed for your darling Bronson (I learned about your family through PinkMoss).
It broke my heart hearing your story, and I shared it with my husband, who too was just so saddened to hear about this. A family we don't even know, yet, a family like ANY family. It could've been OUR family. Because of YOU, I am a better mother now. And I THANK YOU for that!!!!
I'm soooooooo glad and happy you have your darling Bronson back. Your family is precious!!!
XOXOXOXO
Thank you for sharing the video of your amazing, beautiful family.
So happy for all of you. Tears of Joy and Love for this little boy I've never met. He is still in my thoughts and prayers as well as your beautiful family. God loves us doesn't he!
I know that you don't know me, I am a friend of your Aunt Lynette's down here in Coral Canyon. However, through Facebook I found out about your little Bronson and have had him and your family in my prayers. Thank you for letting us see the miracle that has been wrought in your family's life. "I believe in Christ; He is God's Son. On earth to dwell his soul did come. He healed the sick; the dead He raised. Good works were His; His name be praised."
Jan Harris
Thank you for shring this. You have a very strong little boy, obviously meant to be here to show us all that prayers and faith in God can do ANYTHING!
God is SO GOOD! What a lovely little miracle you have! God bless your family!
how good to see your handsome little guy smile and walk around! Congratulations on such a miraculous recovery. What a testimony builder your story has been. Thank you for sharing.
I have been praying for your family since I heard about Bronson. Bless his heart and bless your hearts for all you have been through. What a testimony you have shared with the world. Bronson has been quite the missionary in his young life. Our Heavenly Father has truly blessed your family with a miracle! I coudln't be more grateful.
I don't know you, I heard about your story from my sister-in-law but I just wanted to say thanks for sharing it. I have a little boy and I have been tempted lately to leave him in the bathtub for 'just a few seconds' and now that I have read your story I swear I never will. Maybe that moment you regret will help save many other children. Thanks for sharing.
My testimony has been strengthened by listening to your story. I can't imagine going through what you have gone through and, still, you all seem so happy. Bronson is lucky to be blessed with parents who are so full of love and Faith! I am so happy he is healthy, happy and HOME. Thank you for sharing little Bronsons miracle with the world; it has been so inspiring to me as a young, worn out mother of 3! THANK YOU!!!
Thankyou for opening up your lives, hearts and story... it truly has made me realize that I need to hold my boys a little closer EVERY second I can. YAY, YAY, YAY for miracles, blessings and incredible love.
What a beautiful video. Thank you so much for sharing that and your testimony and faith. We are so glad that your baby boy pulled through.
What a beautiful video. You are a very talented writer. Thank you for sharing your story. It has made me want to be a better mom and really pay attention and put the things off that can wait. Thank you so much! I am so glad you are all home. This was such a testimony builder. Thank you!
I know you have probably heard this a million times, but that is a MIRACLE!! I was a medical assistant for a pediatrcian for 8 years and he used to tell me, he'd rather hear of a drowning than a near drowning because the life long outcomes are usually HORRIFYING!! When I heard about your baby, I was so sad! I have a 15 month old and it just hit so close to home! SO SO SO beyond thrilled, and I bawled all through the video!! Congrats on your sweet sweet miracle! Thank you for sharing!
In a world that is pushing so hard to take "God" out of everything our lives have been based upon, you're story is such a beautiful reminder that God exists and that his love is never ending and has no boundaries. I have felt God's presence speak through your blog. Thank you for sharing your faith with the world. I'm so grateful for Bronson's recovery. May god continue to bless your beautiful family.
~kristy, SLC, UT ~
i am currently wiping away the tears. i found your story through a friend that lives in utah and wanted to say that a family in spring tx is thinking about your family. what a testament to the power of the priesthood and the church. our thoughts and prayers are with you.
How can you watch that without tears...tears of mercy, tears of faith, tears of happiness, tears of love. It has been such an awakening following Bronsons story...from the first time I read what you were so brave to post...to the joy of such a happy beginning...because that is what it is...a new beginning!! We prayed. We love you...even if we've never met you...it doesn't matter...we are all brothers and sisters, and I am so happy to see such happiness and joy!! Thanks for sharing it with us...all of us...!!
Yay Bronson!! Such a little stud!! So happy for you and your sweet family. God's mercy is so sweet. xoxo.
I loved watching Bronson walk out of the hospital. I watched that part over and over.
I logged into my email to send a quick note for my primary calling, and after glancing at an email from my Aunt Jan, (in your parents ward)- I followed her link to your blog, and I ended up at my computer for an hour, crying a gallon of tears. Luckily in the end they were happy tears! I am so happy for you and your family, and thank you for sharing your journey with us. Enjoy your beautiful baby... well all your beautiful babies- I'm glad you're back home with all of them.
thanks
I have read Bronson's story, and followed it as if I know you! I have spent many nights crying over youe blog entries, and praying for your family. This video is one of the sweetest things I have seen. It shows how close your family is, and the love you and your husband have for each other and your boys. I wanted to go wake up my daughter and just hold her, but its midnight! Ha! I do have to say that your story has made me re-prioritize things in my life. I always went into the other room to hurry and do something. I think every parent has! After reading all your posts, I hold my daughter tighter, and kiss her more. I leave the dishes in the sink and play with her more. The "important" things in life can wait, and because of you I figured that out! Thank you for sharing your story with me and everyone!! You are an amazing lady!
I don't know how I happened upon your blog but I'm so grateful I did. Your family is beautiful, strong and an inspiration to so many. We were blessed with our own 2 miracles and watching your son walk out of the hospital brought so many memories back of our own final departure after a lengthy stay. Thank you for sharing your miracle, it's an amazing reminder of our Heavenly Father's love for us!
What a miracle! I am so happy that your son is okay! Thanks be to God! He is beautifuL! Glad you are enjoying every second.

I love that story! It made me give my babies a big hug and promise to be a better mom thanks to that beautiful story! Thanks for sharing that amazing miracle! I am also a nurse and that made me want to be a better nurse as well!
Hi Sara,
I just wanted to let you know we were thinking of you guys during this event. We prayed for a full recovery for Bronson. We are so happy that he is doing so well - you are very lucky.
Love,

I am coming to this story late, but am so very moved and inspired by your story, video and the miracle of life. It increases my testimony of the love Heavenly Father has for us and the way the spirit can move us and give us hope.
May god continue to bless your family. What a miracle! :)
Thank you for sharing your miracle, they never cease.
my goodness where do i begin!!!! my friend at work was just going on and on and on about your story and your boys and how miraculous it was, so one Sunday morning i couldn't sleep and decided to check it out. I was SOBBING like, cant breath, gasping for air sobbing. we have a 4 month old baby boy and i just cant imagine... my first thoughts were like dude for reals? how? what? why? crazy? so many thoughts and of course your natural inclination is to judge and think unkind things... after i read your all your posts and saw your beautiful family pictures and thought about myself being in your shoes i just wept some more. I love the video your hubby put together and you write eloquently! What a powerful story! i will always remember it. thanks for sharing. your boys are darling. you guys kinda feel like family hahaha i talk to my hubby about your little miracle and i cry. I am so genuinely happy for you and reading your blog has made me a better person. thank you for your faith and your example to be strong. i loved the interview on the Today show. big hugs for your little boys, and your tough lil fighter Bronson!
Thank you so much for having the strength to even document it. I dont know if I could. you are amazing! :O)
I am absoultely bowled over at what a miraculous story you have to tell- thankyou so much for sharing.
Your faith astounds me and this was a true miracle if ever I've heard of one!
The video is especially touching :-)
I am filled with joy and awe, and will be hugging my daughter extra long tonight :-)
All the very best with everything!
Sara and Matt,
I had tears watching this video. God is so good. I am so moved when I see how God works yet another miracle. He is so awesome and pours out His love and mercy on whomever he wants. It reminds me of the story where Jesus is moved by the family who lost the little girl so he brought her back to life. I believe since so many people were praying God was moved and brought baby Bronson back to life. I have 3 children and looking at Bronson's face reminded me of my 2yr old, Gabby. God bless your family and baby Bronson. I wish I could just give him a big hug. Give him a big hug for me and let him know how much God loves him! His story is going to touch so many lives like mine and God is getting all the Glory by using Bronson. Amazing testimony and story. God bless you!
Lots of love,
The Carr family

Hi Sara, My name is Belinda. I have read your story on your son. I was wondering if you could pray for my brother-n-law's baby boy Jace.He is 10 months old and is going through right now what happened to your baby. He is in the hospital goin on a week and a half and he still has no brain activity and they still have him the machine to keep him breathing. Your baby coming back was a miracle and I have been praying nonstop for God to give us a miracle.That Jace can come out of this. Please pray for him. Thank you.
