He is so beautiful! He looks so strong and happy to see his family!! I have always believed in God, but this has definitely renewed my faith and has made me realize even more that through Him, anything is possible!
Stakers - this has been such a great experience for my kids in having their prayers answered - I think we have watched the video 100x's already - my kids keep saying "push play mom" they are so thrilled to see their prayers for Bronson in action - I can't even imagine your joy! - Julianne

We, too, are overwhelmed with joy for you. It's been a wonderful experience sharing this with our kids too and teaching them the power of prayer. I'm also an Occupational Therapist and can count on one hand the number of miracles like this that I've seen in almost 15 years. So glad you're one of them. Praise God!!
Beautiful pictures...he's loving it!!! Nasal canula is a huge step up!! That is all too familiar! Yahoo for being extubated! he looks so precious and happy to have that out of him. I am bawling my eyes out and we can't stop watching the video!
Sara, You don't know me, but I am Ashley McBride's Aunt. I have been following your blog and praying for your family & Bronson. your faith and strength has inspired me. It is so good to see the video and that beautiful smile on your baby! God does answer prayers and miracles happen. I have seen it in your son!!!! AMAZING!!
I CANNOT BELIEVE IT!!! WAIT... I CAN BELIEVE IT!!! I TOO LOVE HIS GRAND SMILE!!!! LOVE TO YOUR FAMILY! WE ARE ALL BLESSED THIS WEEK WATCHING THIS MIRACLE UNFOLD!! THANK YOU FOR SHARING IT WITH US!! ANGELA CASSAVAUGH, LENOIR, NC
I don't know you but I've been following your story and praying for your family. I am so over joyed to see this picture! I will continue to keep you in my prayers.
It's amazing how resilient kids are. He looks great! And it is not only a manifestation of resilience, but how much the Savior blesses our lives.
I found your blog through a friend who suggested reading about your journey. I am a nurse at Primary's, not in the PICU but on another floor and I just can't tell you how amazed I am by children and their stories each and every day. They are the most amazing and inspiring beings on this earth. I wish your family the best as Bronson recovers. He is a beautiful little boy!
My husband and I have been reading your blog, I screamed with excitement and turned the laptop to him and he said..."miracle" We're soooooo HAPPY for your family! Keep the faith!!
I have been following your saga for a week now and am thrilled beyond measure for your family! This, is exactly what collective prayers can do. And, just to let you know of the impact, I didn't leave my two year old for a second the other night as she took her bath...thanks to you. We sang silly songs, splashed, and blew big bubbles, and not one time, did I think about doing some laundry, or folding towels. I just enjoyed my time with her, and I want to thank you for that gift. You can never know what you may have deflected in the future by writing about this.
I don't know you but was linked to your blog through twitter. Please know your family is in our prayers-Best wishes for a continued recovery! God works in amazing ways!
Sara you don't know me, but I have followed your sweet story since Saturday night. I even posted your link on my facebook page and have had several friends follow. I am so happy for your sweet miracle. I have a strong testimony of our church and know that Heavenly Father has heard and answered your prayers!! What an example your family is to those who are not of our faith!! May the Lord continue to bless your sweet family!! Please know you are not alone!! I know most of us have walked away from the tub for a brief second!! I hope you will be able to forgive yourself one day!! I know this week I have not taken anything or my children for granted! Keep up the good work!! You are one AMAZING mom!! Love from VA
I just love how BRIGHT and ALIVE his eyes are . . . he's beautiful, and he loves you. You can see it all over his face as he looks at you while you're taking the pic.
You do not know me. I have been following Bronson's progress over the past week. I am so thrilled for you & your family. What a miracle! A true testament to the power of prayer. Thank you for being such an example to me. What a strong testimony & amazing faith you have. You have touched so many people. Thank you for letting us all in & sharing your feelings with us. What a handsome little man. I can only imagine the pure joy you and your sweet family must be experiencing! Words definitely cannot express!
As so many have said- Bronson's story (and that picture) brings tears to my eyes. How unbelievably happy I am for you! May God continue to send blessings your way.
I have been drawn to your blog since it all happened and and of course my internet went out for 5 days...I have been dying to seee the progress of little bronson! My heart skipped a beat when I saw this HAPPY picture! I don't even know hm, but I LOVE him!:) The power of prayer is amazing!
Such the sweetest and most handsome little face. Look at that smile!!! So exciting! Miracles can happen! We couldn't be happier for your sweet family! Oh my heck! Tears of joy are being shed in your behalf! YAHOO!
You don't know how happy this makes me. I laid awake till 1:00 am last night thinking about you and your dear family. Pleading and begging with god for a miracle I couldn't even imagine the heart ache you were feeling and the emotions you had been facing. It seems like just yesterday I myself was hearing that my daughter might be brain dead. The things you describe made my heart ache. Although the circumstances were different. It just is cruel to have to analize every little thing and wonder if there is a little function somewhere in that little head. I am thanking god. He is real. He is! Even though my little one was called back home and is up in heaven I know that miracles DO happend. Thanks for sharing!!!
What a beautiful picture!!! I am SOOOO happy for you all! We've been praying and praying for you guys! Both of my 2 older boys (7 & 5)have made me replay your video several times and my little 7 year old boy just said "Bronson looks so cute" when he saw this new picture! Thanks again for sharing him and your story with us! You are all so amazing! Congrats!!!
can't remember how i found your blog but just want you to know you have been in my thoughts and prayers - so glad to see that your little guy is on his way back - faith is a wonderful thing! god bless!
You know i haven't really fasted for a while and Sunday i did for your little family! It has shown how prowerful it can be. I am so happy for you and your family, I found your blog from my good friend who posted she was praying for you, Thank you for sharing this with me. Heavenly Father is wonderful! Em (California)
I cannot thank you enough for sharing your story. What an inspirational and awe inspiring one! I am a nurse at PCMC on the Neruscience/Trauma Unit. I am hoping that you leave the PICU soon and head on across the hall to our home. I will definitely be keeping an eye out for your little kiddo. What a miracle he is. Look at the light in his eyes. Coming from a nurses perspective, again I can't thank you enough for sharing your story. You have given me and insight and an understanding that I don't think I ever would have had otherwise. I will be a better nurse forever because of it. I owe that to you and your beautiful family. I hope to see you incredibly soon so we can get you back home and back to life. My prayers are continuing for your little man and for your family. God bless!
How wonderful for you! The power of priesthood blessings is real. I couldn't help but remember the comment you made in your 1st post about the accident when your husband gave Bronson such a powerful blessing. We don't get to chose when Heavenly Father will answer our prayers, or even how he will answer them, but rest assured prayers are answered. What a beautiful testament to you, to your family and to Bronson. Your sweet sons fasting, blessings being given and humble prayers uttered have all been answered. Hundreds of prayers sent to Heaven for your sweet boy! I hope and pray that Bronson's recovery will continue smoothly and that you will soon be able to be home together as a family.
I just saw this latest update and cried! We are so happy for you! I am tempted to go wake up my sleeping boys and show them. They have all been so concerned and prayerful for him. In fact my 7 year old decided to bear his testimony on Sunday and started telling everyone about what he was fasting for--baby Bronson and what happened--so then people came up to me after church to find out more. Each person told me they would pray for him too and add him to their fast. ( We have an amazing ward) Anyway, I just got off the phone with a couple of them to let them know--one older sister (Dena Williams) who asked me to let her know, just wept when I told her the good news. Anyway, I just wanted to tell you that you are being prayed for and loved from Tennessee! We are so happy!
This is truly amazing! I'm in tears watching the video you posted. I've been praying for Bronson and your family since I heard. Thank you for keeping your blog updated, and I will continue to pray for continued wonderful progress! You have one strong little man there, and we have one amaziing God helping him jump the hurdles! Many thoughts and prayers for you all!
Sara I have looked at your blog so much that I find myself humming the songs from your blog all day!;) We are so THRILLED with that picture and that he is back! Yahoo! Thanks for sharing so much... Pilling family
Sara and family- Thank you for sharing your story. Many lives have been saved due to this tragic event. I know that Bronson's life will be spared. He is such a sweet soul and his time here is not over in the least bit. I have been glued to your blog like many others. I have shared your story to many people, requesting prayers each time. Out nightly prayers are by far more meaningful. I will never leave my children in the bath alone, and I definitely hold them closer at night. I find I have become much more patient, and a better mother due to your story. Again, I think you immensely. You are such an inspiration and I look up to you more than you will ever know.
You don't know me, but I came across your blog on a friends facebook page. I have been praying for you and your family and this is truly a miracle. Thank you for sharing your incredible story, it has definitely strenghtened my faith. I will continue to keep your family in my thoughts and prayers. God is truly amazing and you have an earth angel to prove it!
I commented a few hours on your most glorious post today and my warm fuzzies (how cheesy!) have still not gone away. I am just elated for you! What a beautiful smile ♥
Matt Sara and boys we are so happy for you!! Bronson you little stud, keep up the great work! Matt I can hear the joy in your voice in the video, LOVE IT!! Prayers of Gratitude tonight..
He is without a doubt the strongest-willed boy I've ever seen. He is a total stud! I have a little boy that is Bronson's age and we would both love to meet this little angel someday. He has changed so many lives...mine beyond measure! He is precious.
bronson is officially my hero! although insignificant compared to yours - my joy is overwhelming. that is the face of an angel. so happy for you. much love.
Sara, we are so happy to see your little guy responding. We have had you in our prayers all this week and have been hanging on your blog hoping for the news of today. We are so thankful for our Heavenly Father's answer to our prayers in your family's behalf. I know his power is real as we have felt it many times in Mark's health struggles and have felt the comfort of the Holy Ghost. We will continue to pray for little Bronson and your family.
I've been reading your blog for a few days with my heart in my throat. I've prayed SO much for Bronson, and your whole family. So happy for you all right now! :D Prayers do work, it's true. He is so adorable!!
Well, I am among the hundreds who are following this incredible journey. I can't tell you how happy I am to see a little smile on your beautiful baby boy's face. God is truly a God of miracles.
You don't know me from Adam, but I can tell you that photographers stick together and I have been told of your story by so many colleges and been following sweet Bronson. My heart LEAPT out of my chest when I read the news tonight!
PRAYERS have been answered. I feel I need to say......Love you and your sweet Bronson.....hang in there! I hope to meet you one day.
OH ya! Oh ya! We're all dancin around the table here. No more VENT? YEEEEHHAAAAWWW! He looks AWESOME. Can't wait to get a little smile of my own out of that perfect little miracle. Amazing. Prayers of gratitude and thanksgiving tonight!!!

Tears of joy are being shed on your behalf. Thank you for your faith, it has strengthened me in ways I can't express. You are an amazing woman, an amazing example of what a sister in the Gospel is, you have made me a better person. Much love is being sent to your little guy. Thanks for sharing every day with the world of your trials. Meagan Kennedy Cedar Hills, UT
It's so funny how we can have tears of joy over some one we have never met! What a wonderful blessing! Hope things keep looking up! We'll keep Bronson in our prayers!
You don't know me, but I found your blog from following Natalie's, and I have been praying and hoping that everything would work out. The posts today made me cry! I'm so happy and relieved. Heavenly Father truly hears our prayers! :-)
This is such a BEAUTIFUL picture!! Bronson, you are SO cute!! He looks wonderful and we are SO SO SO happy for you...what a precious blessing! The video below is so sweet...what a wonderful day! You are all in our thoughts and prayers.
A. MAZ. ING!!! That is the same beautiful smile I saw a few Sundays ago peeking over the Relief Society table. Can't wait to see it again in person. What a blessing.
I have been following your story for just a few days, but I have prayed that God would work a miracle for your family. WHAT A GREAT GOD WE SERVE!!! I will continue to keep you all in my prayers!
I'm not even sure what to say, I'm just so happy for your family. I'm sitting here at work fighting back tears! I can't wait to go home and hug my baby REAL tight :)
I am so glad I checked the blog one last time before bed tonight...now I can rest easy! I know it sounds crazy because I don't even know you guys, but I think about you constantly and check the blog about a hundred times a day, each time praying to see the post I just saw! He is so beautiful and full of life...a true miracle. Thank you for letting us all in on this journey...we are all better for it! Much love as he completes his recovery...please do keep us posted on his continued health and progress!

I am so excited for you and so greatful that you have been willing to share this with us and let us offer you and your family our prayers! So amazingly joyful!
I happened across your blog two days ago and have been glued to updates since. What an awe inspiring story with a truly happy ending. I have 4 boys myself pretty close in age to some of your boys so it hit me pretty hard. I am so happy for your family right now and only wish you the best through out this time. What a special boy he must be!
and in the end...the love you make ...is equal to the love you take...God is Great! HAPPY EARLY VLENTINE'S DAY...look at the joy on that little guys face...whew!! xoxoxoxo cindiz
thank you, Sara. I'm sure you've been under so much pressure, and with the added responsibility of keeping half the world informed of Bronson's progress, i'm sure you could use some rest. We will continue to keep him in our prayers. God Bless
YEAHHHH Bronson!!!!! We are overjoyed for you!!!! Seriously, how cute is he??!!!!! Tubes, wires, and all!! What a handsome little dude My 4 year old boy is so excited. He has been praying every morning and night for Bronson. He insists he and Bronson are best friends! Thank you for letting us be a part of your miracle, and helping our faith and testimonies grow. You are wonderful and we hope recovery continues to go well. YAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYY!
I am just a blog stalker but I have been checking back daily to see Bronson's progress. AMAZING! Prayers across the world have been answered. Our family has been praying for him and your family. We have been hugging more and slowing down. Thank you for your words and your faith. We will always be touched by Bronson's story. What a miracle!
Oh.... that is an adorable picture of Bronson. This is pure Joy and I am so happy for you. What a long Journey. To see such great progress within 24 hours is wonderful! I am sure you look forward to the newest chapter in your life. One filled with Joy, faith, gratitude and confirmation that Heavenly Father is great and he answers our prayer. Enjoy!!!! You deserve it.......
Bronson has been an instrument in the hands of Heavenly Father..... There is no doubt about that after reading all these comments.
My Testimony has grown so much through your trial and I thank you for that.
WOW! That is truly amazing! What a little trooper Bronson is! You are all troopers! So many people have fallen in love with your little family and your family has touched so many lives! Thank you for your posts and especially for your faith! You are such an example of how to have faith in these trying times! I wish I could run up there and give you all a hug without you thinking I was a CRAZY lady! =) Keep strong sweet Bronson! You have SO MANY people rooting and praying for you!

This is my first time to your blog. Thank you for sharing your story with us. What an amazing little boy! The power of prayer is amazing... God is good! BIG HUGS!
Never again will you view your children in the same way. I bet every moment will be precious, even the trying ones, because you came so close to such devestation. Thank God. My heart is so filled with happiness for you, and as I've said in previous comments, you have helped me to slow down and appreciate all the moments. Even when I want to pull my hair out. Tragic that you had to go through this, but what a mirable. What a blessing. Again, thank God!
We live in Megan's ward in Oregon. We have been praying for your family since we became aware of your need. We are thrilled to see this posting! We'll keep up the prayers...wish there was more we could do to help.
I feel like rushing to the States, to the hospital, and giving you all a great big hug!!!!!!! Blessings to you ALL, especially baby Bronson!!!!! God is great and you so deserve this beautiful outcome!!!!!! Peace...be still!!!!!
*That reminds me of something ... 2 scriptures I apply to my life at difficult times... "Be still and know that I am God!" "And this too shall pass..." How sweet these are to remember!!!!
You don't know me, but I'm a mom that has been following your story. You are an amazing example of faith and strength. Miracles still happen today, and we're praying for you and your family.
I LOVE seeing you with your baby, rubbing his arm! I LOVE that smile he's got! My mom called me to tell me about your post today (I hadn't been able to check yet) and I said "Don't tell me! Don't tell me!" I wanted to read your good news myself! I'm in shock and am elated! I am excited to read more good news in the days to come! All my love to baby B!!! Michelle Woods Cross, UT
A Friend of mine directed me to your blog. I cried my eyes out and snuggled my little baby boy. Having been to PCMC MANY times before with my own baby boy and his health problems and also just recently a niece of mine was diagnosed with cancer and a really rare disease there. I cannot tell you how AWESOME the nurses and DR's are there. You are at the best place you can possibly be and I am so happy to hear that your little Bronson is doing so much better! My little boy and I said a prayer for him tonight and your family tonight, hoping for a full and happy recovery.
You have no idea who I am, but the story of your boy reached me last week and my family and I have been so humbled by your situation. We have been brought to our knees in tears, but bringing our faith to ask that Bronson might be healed. In turn, we have felt some of that healing in our own hearts and we are so thankful that Bronson is doing so well. Our prayers will continue for you and we just wanted to say that we are so happy for you!
Sara & Matt, What a difference in Bronson seeing him last night and then seeing him tonight. We loved seeing the re uniting of your whole family and to see the joy you all have to have Bronson back. It's and absolute miracle, thank you for involving all of us in it. Love, Aunt Linda
When I began following your story, I thought, I too was a stranger. Reading your blog, I couldn’t help but think… “That could so easily have been me”. I began to pray for Bronson and your beautiful family immediately.
Today, however, I realized I went to High School with you, Sara. I was a year older than you. You were uber cool and I was not. It didn’t matter, you were always nice… not just nice, kind. To everyone.
Tears of joy roll down my face as I read about today‘s miracle.
I will continue to pray for Bronson and your family. I would like to do more. Is there anyway I can make a donation to help with medical expenses? I’ve seen a friends life flight bill. WOW! I know now is not the time, but I think others, friends & strangers alike, would like to help.
Thank you for sharing your story. It is, and has been, a very powerful reminder of what is most important.
Hi, my name is Lexie. You don't know me, but a family friend told me about your blog because I have a baby boy. I started to read it to my husband and broke down, so I had to stop. I've been following all of your posts now and love how you write them. Bronson is darling and I'm so so so happy to see this cute little smile. You are so strong and such a good mom! The Lord's powers really are amazing. I wish all the best for you!
I can't stop looking at this beautiful boy. Thanks for changing my life. My boys (I have 3 of them) will not be able to believe their eye's in the morning. They will be so excited for Bronson. We all are! Thanks for sharing and strengthening our lives and testimony! I feel like yelling from the roof tops!!! YiPpEe!
You don't know me, but I just wanted to let you know how happy I am for you, Bronson, and your family. I loved pulling your blog up and seeing his sweet smile. What a blessing to you all. I don't know how you have been so strong, but I know that I could not, would not, be so strong. And yet, we are not alone in our trials. I'm sure that is how you have felt. I want to thank you for sharing this terrible experience because I have learned so much and truly appreciate even the little things. I am so glad to see that your faith has brought you to this wonderful blessing! I will continue to keep Bronson and your family in my thoughts and prayers.
This picture says EVERYTHING! Welcome back Bronson! You have touched many lives sweetie thank you so much for sharing this struggle and trial with us! What a handsome boy you have there Sara! I have told so many people about your family and Bronson and have asked them to pray for you. Isnt it amazing the power of prayer and the preisthood. WOW is all i can say Bronson was put here on this earth for a reason and his life was spared for a reason we may never know that reason but he truly is an amazing little boy and Sara you and your husband and other boys truly are an amazing family!!

I dont remember if I already left a comment earlier today. I am sorry if I did. I have lost track of how often I check your blog everyday to see Bronson's updates. He is absolutely precious! We are overjoyed for your family in the amazing progress he is made! I LOVE that he is following you with his eyes and smiling! How amazing of the Lord to perform this miracle in your lives. You will continue to be in our prayers!
Oh what joy! There really is no other words. I have been following your blog only for the past two days. I can honestly sit here and write as a total stranger, and tell you that I am ecstatic right now! As if we've been friends forever. I am in awe of you. In awe of your story, of your faith and strength. I'm in awe of this beautiful smiling miracle in this picture! What a sweetheart! I wept as I've read your posts. Life is so fragile and unfortunately it takes something like this for people to realize it. I am so grateful that he is doing so well! Thank you. You have completely changed my perspective on life. I pray that Heavenly Father will continue to heal Bronson. That He will continue to pour blessing after blessing upon your sweet family. SUCH great news!

It's amazing how resilient kids are. He looks great! And it is not only a manifestation of resilience, but how much the Savior blesses our lives.
ReplyDeleteI found your blog through a friend who suggested reading about your journey. I am a nurse at Primary's, not in the PICU but on another floor and I just can't tell you how amazed I am by children and their stories each and every day. They are the most amazing and inspiring beings on this earth. I wish your family the best as Bronson recovers. He is a beautiful little boy!
Wow, to have witnessed a miracle!!!
ReplyDeleteThat is JOY!!!
So happy for you and your family and all involved.
Welcome back buddy!
ReplyDeleteMy husband and I have been reading your blog, I screamed with excitement and turned the laptop to him and he said..."miracle" We're soooooo HAPPY for your family! Keep the faith!!
ReplyDeleteBlessings & faith. Prayers & Love. Laughing through the tears-- that face-- and that great little grin!!! Perfectly PERFECT!!
ReplyDeleteso happy for you. i have been praying and will continue!!
ReplyDeleteI have been following your saga for a week now and am thrilled beyond measure for your family! This, is exactly what collective prayers can do. And, just to let you know of the impact, I didn't leave my two year old for a second the other night as she took her bath...thanks to you. We sang silly songs, splashed, and blew big bubbles, and not one time, did I think about doing some laundry, or folding towels. I just enjoyed my time with her, and I want to thank you for that gift. You can never know what you may have deflected in the future by writing about this.
ReplyDeleteLove that pic, can't help but keep checking back to see his progress, so happy to see this, prior to heading to sleep.
ReplyDeleteI don't know you but was linked to your blog through twitter. Please know your family is in our prayers-Best wishes for a continued recovery!
ReplyDeleteGod works in amazing ways!
Way to go Bronson!!!! Keep up the good work buddy!!!

ReplyDeleteSara you don't know me, but I have followed your sweet story since Saturday night. I even posted your link on my facebook page and have had several friends follow. I am so happy for your sweet miracle. I have a strong testimony of our church and know that Heavenly Father has heard and answered your prayers!! What an example your family is to those who are not of our faith!! May the Lord continue to bless your sweet family!! Please know you are not alone!! I know most of us have walked away from the tub for a brief second!! I hope you will be able to forgive yourself one day!! I know this week I have not taken anything or my children for granted! Keep up the good work!! You are one AMAZING mom!! Love from VA

ReplyDeleteYou do not know me. I have been following Bronson's progress over the past week. I am so thrilled for you & your family. What a miracle! A true testament to the power of prayer. Thank you for being such an example to me. What a strong testimony & amazing faith you have. You have touched so many people. Thank you for letting us all in & sharing your feelings with us. What a handsome little man. I can only imagine the pure joy you and your sweet family must be experiencing! Words definitely cannot express!
ReplyDeleteAs so many have said- Bronson's story (and that picture) brings tears to my eyes. How unbelievably happy I am for you! May God continue to send blessings your way.
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy for you! Welcome back Bronson!
ReplyDeleteI do not know you...nor do I know Bronson...but this photo has me weeping. Miracles of all miracles.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jesus!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a miracle!
I have been drawn to your blog since it all happened and and of course my internet went out for 5 days...I have been dying to seee the progress of little bronson! My heart skipped a beat when I saw this HAPPY picture! I don't even know hm, but I LOVE him!:) The power of prayer is amazing!
ReplyDeleteAMAZING, AWESOME, and WONDERFUL.
ReplyDeleteOh I am so thrilled for you. You're right, words can't describe... This is WAY too wonderful for words.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely AMAZING!!! I love the pic. It brought tears to my eyes!
ReplyDeleteI just love him! he looks so wonderful. Love to you all.
ReplyDeleteso sweet, their is that cute smile :)
ReplyDeleteSuch the sweetest and most handsome little face. Look at that smile!!! So exciting! Miracles can happen! We couldn't be happier for your sweet family! Oh my heck! Tears of joy are being shed in your behalf! YAHOO!
ReplyDeleteI came to you blog from Natalie Norton's. I've been praying for your baby and for your family as well. This post made my day! Congrats!
ReplyDeletePerfect stranger here...but I have followed for the last few days. What a miraculous recovery! I am so very happy for you, Bronson and your family!
ReplyDeleteYou will continue to be in my prayers!
You don't know how happy this makes me. I laid awake till 1:00 am last night thinking about you and your dear family. Pleading and begging with god for a miracle I couldn't even imagine the heart ache you were feeling and the emotions you had been facing. It seems like just yesterday I myself was hearing that my daughter might be brain dead. The things you describe made my heart ache. Although the circumstances were different. It just is cruel to have to analize every little thing and wonder if there is a little function somewhere in that little head. I am thanking god. He is real. He is! Even though my little one was called back home and is up in heaven I know that miracles DO happend. Thanks for sharing!!!
ReplyDeleteWith tears in my eyes and my heart exploding with joy, prayers will continue for you all.
ReplyDeleteGood He is.
Amen!
What a beautiful picture!!! I am SOOOO happy for you all! We've been praying and praying for you guys! Both of my 2 older boys (7 & 5)have made me replay your video several times and my little 7 year old boy just said "Bronson looks so cute" when he saw this new picture! Thanks again for sharing him and your story with us! You are all so amazing! Congrats!!!
ReplyDeleteI am so happy for you guys! What a great smile your little one has. It is pure joy. And seeing it makes me cry a happy cry. Love to you.
ReplyDeletep.s. Bronson, nice hair . . . I am loving that too.
Amazing~ So happy for you and your family today to see God's hand in this and how all the many prayers have been answered~
ReplyDeleteWhat a perfectly beautiful boy! And what a miracle he is!
ReplyDeletePraise God!! I am overflowing with joy for your family!!!!
ReplyDeletecan't remember how i found your blog but just want you to know you have been in my thoughts and prayers - so glad to see that your little guy is on his way back - faith is a wonderful thing! god bless!
ReplyDeletedeirdre
You know i haven't really fasted for a while and Sunday i did for your little family! It has shown how prowerful it can be. I am so happy for you and your family, I found your blog from my good friend who posted she was praying for you, Thank you for sharing this with me. Heavenly Father is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteEm (California)
I cannot thank you enough for sharing your story. What an inspirational and awe inspiring one!
ReplyDeleteI am a nurse at PCMC on the Neruscience/Trauma Unit. I am hoping that you leave the PICU soon and head on across the hall to our home. I will definitely be keeping an eye out for your little kiddo. What a miracle he is. Look at the light in his eyes.
Coming from a nurses perspective, again I can't thank you enough for sharing your story. You have given me and insight and an understanding that I don't think I ever would have had otherwise. I will be a better nurse forever because of it. I owe that to you and your beautiful family.
I hope to see you incredibly soon so we can get you back home and back to life.
My prayers are continuing for your little man and for your family. God bless!
How wonderful for you! The power of priesthood blessings is real. I couldn't help but remember the comment you made in your 1st post about the accident when your husband gave Bronson such a powerful blessing. We don't get to chose when Heavenly Father will answer our prayers, or even how he will answer them, but rest assured prayers are answered. What a beautiful testament to you, to your family and to Bronson. Your sweet sons fasting, blessings being given and humble prayers uttered have all been answered. Hundreds of prayers sent to Heaven for your sweet boy! I hope and pray that Bronson's recovery will continue smoothly and that you will soon be able to be home together as a family.
ReplyDeleteMy goodness, this little boy looks just like that cute little boy in your slide show! Amazing!
ReplyDeleteSo good to see his cute smile! Still in my prayers!
ReplyDeleteKristy (Cedar City)
So glad to see he is doing so well, I am praying that God will continue to heal him and that his recovery will be complete.
ReplyDeleteI just saw this latest update and cried! We are so happy for you! I am tempted to go wake up my sleeping boys and show them. They have all been so concerned and prayerful for him. In fact my 7 year old decided to bear his testimony on Sunday and started telling everyone about what he was fasting for--baby Bronson and what happened--so then people came up to me after church to find out more. Each person told me they would pray for him too and add him to their fast. ( We have an amazing ward) Anyway, I just got off the phone with a couple of them to let them know--one older sister (Dena Williams) who asked me to let her know, just wept when I told her the good news. Anyway, I just wanted to tell you that you are being prayed for and loved from Tennessee! We are so happy!
ReplyDeleteIt is AMAZING to see Bronson's true colors today. What a bright eyed, HANDSOME boy.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful boy, Sara and Matt! Hugs to you from us!
ReplyDeleteTo God be the Glory! Hebrews 11:6 and the love of God for His people are an unbeatlable combination.
ReplyDeleteI am filled with joy for you and your family.
Man he is one bright, beautiful boy. So, so happy for you!
ReplyDeleteThis is truly amazing! I'm in tears watching the video you posted. I've been praying for Bronson and your family since I heard. Thank you for keeping your blog updated, and I will continue to pray for continued wonderful progress! You have one strong little man there, and we have one amaziing God helping him jump the hurdles! Many thoughts and prayers for you all!
ReplyDelete~Dana
Sara I have looked at your blog so much that I find myself humming the songs from your blog all day!;)
ReplyDeleteWe are so THRILLED with that picture and that he is back! Yahoo! Thanks for sharing so much... Pilling family
That is one priceless picture! He is so cute!!!
ReplyDeleteOh yeah----Me and my kids are dancing in the kitchen to Bronson's latest picture and your song "Happy" on your blog :) O Yeah!!!!!
ReplyDeleteSara and family-
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your story. Many lives have been saved due to this tragic event. I know that Bronson's life will be spared. He is such a sweet soul and his time here is not over in the least bit. I have been glued to your blog like many others. I have shared your story to many people, requesting prayers each time. Out nightly prayers are by far more meaningful. I will never leave my children in the bath alone, and I definitely hold them closer at night. I find I have become much more patient, and a better mother due to your story.
Again, I think you immensely. You are such an inspiration and I look up to you more than you will ever know.
A fellow Mommy
You don't know me, but I came across your blog on a friends facebook page. I have been praying for you and your family and this is truly a miracle.

My heart is so filled with happiness for you, and as I've said in previous comments, you have helped me to slow down and appreciate all the moments. Even when I want to pull my hair out.

ReplyDeleteYou don't know me, but I'm a mom that has been following your story. You are an amazing example of faith and strength. Miracles still happen today, and we're praying for you and your family.
ReplyDeleteGod is so great. He is the only explanation for Bronson's return. What an amazing story of faith.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE seeing you with your baby, rubbing his arm! I LOVE that smile he's got! My mom called me to tell me about your post today (I hadn't been able to check yet) and I said "Don't tell me! Don't tell me!" I wanted to read your good news myself! I'm in shock and am elated!

What a wonderful blessing! I'm so happy for you and your family. God is SO amazing!!
ReplyDeleteA Friend of mine directed me to your blog. I cried my eyes out and snuggled my little baby boy. Having been to PCMC MANY times before with my own baby boy and his health problems and also just recently a niece of mine was diagnosed with cancer and a really rare disease there. I cannot tell you how AWESOME the nurses and DR's are there. You are at the best place you can possibly be and I am so happy to hear that your little Bronson is doing so much better! My little boy and I said a prayer for him tonight and your family tonight, hoping for a full and happy recovery.
ReplyDeleteOh! He looks SO good. I am so happy for all of you. I'm going to sleep with a smile on my face tonight!
ReplyDeleteYou have no idea who I am, but the story of your boy reached me last week and my family and I have been so humbled by your situation. We have been brought to our knees in tears, but bringing our faith to ask that Bronson might be healed.
ReplyDeleteIn turn, we have felt some of that healing in our own hearts and we are so thankful that Bronson is doing so well. Our prayers will continue for you and we just wanted to say that we are so happy for you!
Sara & Matt,
ReplyDeleteWhat a difference in Bronson seeing him last night and then seeing him tonight. We loved seeing the re uniting of your whole family and to see the joy you all have to have Bronson back. It's and absolute miracle, thank you for involving all of us in it. Love, Aunt Linda
Speechless is fine. A picture is worth 1000 words and this one really says it all.
ReplyDeleteHe makes me smile. :) What joy!
When I began following your story, I thought, I too was a stranger. Reading your blog, I couldn’t help but think… “That could so easily have been me”. I began to pray for Bronson and your beautiful family immediately.
ReplyDeleteToday, however, I realized I went to High School with you, Sara. I was a year older than you. You were uber cool and I was not. It didn’t matter, you were always nice… not just nice, kind. To everyone.
Tears of joy roll down my face as I read about today‘s miracle.
I will continue to pray for Bronson and your family. I would like to do more. Is there anyway I can make a donation to help with medical expenses? I’ve seen a friends life flight bill. WOW! I know now is not the time, but I think others, friends & strangers alike, would like to help.
Thank you for sharing your story. It is, and has been, a very powerful reminder of what is most important.
Warmly,
Amy “Fisher” Anderson
Hi, my name is Lexie. You don't know me, but a family friend told me about your blog because I have a baby boy. I started to read it to my husband and broke down, so I had to stop. I've been following all of your posts now and love how you write them. Bronson is darling and I'm so so so happy to see this cute little smile. You are so strong and such a good mom! The Lord's powers really are amazing. I wish all the best for you!
ReplyDeleteJust...WOW!
ReplyDeleteThat picture gives me chills. Amazing! Incredible! ... WOW!
Gorgeous smile! Your heart must be smiling tonight, too!
Can't wait for the next update!!!
I can't stop looking at this beautiful boy. Thanks for changing my life. My boys (I have 3 of them) will not be able to believe their eye's in the morning. They will be so excited for Bronson. We all are! Thanks for sharing and strengthening our lives and testimony! I feel like yelling from the roof tops!!! YiPpEe!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great picture! I am so happy for Bronson, you, and your family!! What a miracle!! He is such a special little boy!!
ReplyDeleteYou don't know me, but I just wanted to let you know how happy I am for you, Bronson, and your family. I loved pulling your blog up and seeing his sweet smile. What a blessing to you all. I don't know how you have been so strong, but I know that I could not, would not, be so strong. And yet, we are not alone in our trials. I'm sure that is how you have felt. I want to thank you for sharing this terrible experience because I have learned so much and truly appreciate even the little things. I am so glad to see that your faith has brought you to this wonderful blessing! I will continue to keep Bronson and your family in my thoughts and prayers.
ReplyDeleteYAY!!! Congrats you guys! Oh, the picture and video just made me tear up...such good GOOD news!

ReplyDeleteI dont remember if I already left a comment earlier today. I am sorry if I did. I have lost track of how often I check your blog everyday to see Bronson's updates. He is absolutely precious! We are overjoyed for your family in the amazing progress he is made! I LOVE that he is following you with his eyes and smiling! How amazing of the Lord to perform this miracle in your lives. You will continue to be in our prayers!
ReplyDeleteOh what joy! There really is no other words. I have been following your blog only for the past two days. I can honestly sit here and write as a total stranger, and tell you that I am ecstatic right now! As if we've been friends forever. I am in awe of you. In awe of your story, of your faith and strength. I'm in awe of this beautiful smiling miracle in this picture! What a sweetheart! I wept as I've read your posts. Life is so fragile and unfortunately it takes something like this for people to realize it. I am so grateful that he is doing so well! Thank you. You have completely changed my perspective on life. I pray that Heavenly Father will continue to heal Bronson. That He will continue to pour blessing after blessing upon your sweet family. SUCH great news!
