JUNE 2, 2007 GET YOUR TISSUES AND MAKE SURE YOUR DENTURES ARE SECURE..

DO YOU FOLKS REMEBER THE CHESNEY FAMILY ?

WELL THIS IS A HAPPY FAMILY TODAY..

TILLMAN IS HOME WITH THEM IN A HOUSE NEARBY THE HOSPITAL.. FOR A WHILE LONGER.

~~~~~~~~~~

SINCE I LAST UPDATED YOU ON HIS PROGRESS, HE HAD A LITTLE BACK WASH HAPPEN.. HE DEVELOPED A LEAK AND HIS VEIN COLLAPSED.. SO HE STAYED A WHILE LONGER IN ICU.. TILL THEY PUT A STENT IN THE VIEN TO HOLD IT OPEN AND WITHIN A WEEK..

THIS FAMILY WENT HOME!

~~~~~~~~~~

HIS BODY AFTER THE TRANSPLANT WENT INTO CATCH UP ON DEVELOPMENT IN A KIND OF NASCAR HURRY!

*****

HE HAS SPROUTED 11 TEETH IN 5 MONTHS..

HE HAS LEARNED HOW TO BREATH BY HIMSELF...

HE HAS LEARNED HOW TO TAKE IN FOOD, BY PUTTING IT INTO HIS MOUTH AND SWALLOWING IT..

******

HE HAS LEARNED HOW TO ROLL OVER..

ONTO HIS TUMMY, BUT CAN'T FIGURE OUT HOW TO MAKE IT GO IN REVERSE YET! LOL

*******

THIS LED HIM TO DISCOVER

HE CAN NOW MAKE SOME REALLY LOUD PROTESTS OR PLEASURE SOUNDS BY USING HIS VOCAL CORDS ..

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

HE HAS FELT THE SUN ON HIS FACE, THE WIND IN HIS HAIR, AND SMELLED THE OCEAN BREEZE..

**********

GOD HAS GRANTED TILLMAN CHESNEY...

WITH A MIRACLE OF LIFE FROM THE DEATH OF ANOTHER, WHO JUST COULD NOT BE SAVED...

**********

WHEN I REALIZED THAT FACT... I FELT LIKE A HUGE WEIGHT HAD BEEN LIFTED FROM MY SHOULDERS..

GOD HAS GRANTED ME LIFE ...

BUT COULD NOT SAVE MY LOVED ONES...

THEY HAD TO GO, AND I HAD TO REMAIN..

~~~~~~~~~~~~

AND TILLMAN.. WAS THIS LOCKERRIDE'S INVITATION TO COME BACK TO LIFE..

GOD HAS SENT MY BOAT, MY HELICOPTER AND MY LAST CHANCE TO GET IT RIGHT..

******

TO GET RID OF ANYTHING THAT IS HOLDING ME BACK FROM LIVING...

*****

MY PLAN IS MY PLAN.. GOD MADE IT.. I CAN'T BREAK IT.. SO I WILL MAKE IT!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I LEARNED TO LOOK AT THIS BEAUTIFUL LITTLE SOUL..

*******

WHEN I LOOK AT TILLMAN.. HE IS NOT SAD.. AS A MATTER OF FACT .. HE LOOKS PRETTY WELL PLEASED, WITH WHAT LIFE IS OFFERING TO HIM RIGHT NOW..

************

NOT WORRYING FOR TOMORROW OR PINING FOR YESTERDAY..

HE IS CONTENT IN THE MOMENT!

THIS IS THE BEST HIS LIFE HAS EVER BEEN..

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

FOR HIS PARENTS ALSO..

LIFE HAS NEVER BEEN THIS GOOD!

*********

I PRAY FOR ALL OF YOU MY FRIENDS THAT EACH DAY GOD BRINGS GOOD THINGS INTO YOUR LIVES...

BECAUSE IT IS A PART OF YOUR LIFE PLAN..

~~~~~~~~~

NOTHING IN THE WORLD FEELS BETTER THAN A CHILD IN YOUR ARMS...

SWEET DREAMS CHESNEY MEN.. YOU HAVE EARNED THEM..

**************************

GOD SAID TO LOCKIE...

"LIFE CAN BE AS GOOD AS YOU LET IT BE...

MOVE ON..."

LOCKIE FINALLY SEES THAT HE IS RIGHT AS USUAL.. SIGH...

LOL
