«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 333 of 333We're praying for you in Ohio tonight. So very grieved to hear of your loss.
I found my way to your blog via Kenzie Stanfield's blog. I am praying for your family as you've experienced an incredible loss today. May God hold you in his mighty hands and give you peace in the days to come. I'm so sorry to hear of your son's passing. Another bright star in the sky tonight and the Lord has another special angel in heaven with them. I'm sure he's already found Maddox and they're best of buds.
In Him,

My most heartfelt prayers are with you and your entire family at this time. I pray that God wraps all of you in his comfort and that at this time you feel his love. Please walk in his footsteps when it gets too hard to walk on your own.

I came upon your web site from Matt & Susie Sams' web site. I've been following Tristan's story for a few weeks. Crying tears of sadness for you and your family! And tears of joy as Tristan got to meet Jesus today!

I have also been one of the silent prayer partners on your blog. I am so sorry for the loss of Tristan but I rejoice in the fact that you had 56 wonderful days with your miracle baby and that now he is healthy and without pain in the arms of Jesus. What a blessing he is and what a testimony of faith and God's love you have all been to so many.
I will continue to lift you up in prayer. Know that many all over are praying for you and lifting you up.
Romans 8:26-27
In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express. And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints in accordance with God's will.

I came across your blog back in October and have following your family ever since, among other T-18 families. I have been inspired by your faith and your strength. You are such fabulous witnesses for Christ. I am praying for you and your family all the way from Western Australia. Please know our prayers and thoughts are with you during this difficult time. Stay close to God and each other and He will guide you through.

Storming Heaven with Prayers for you all.
I've been following your blog daily since before Tristan's birth and have prayed with many others that his body would be healed and you would be granted much time with him. Praying for God's peace to fill your hearts and his comfort to fill your home. Tristan's life touched many, and your faithfulness to share his life with all of us has been a blessing.
I am so sorry for the loss of your sweet baby boy. I have been reading your blog since before Tristan was born and have praised God over each day of his life. I pray that our Lord will give you peace beyond your understanding today. I will especially be praying for Tanner, I can not imagine how stunned he must be.
In Christ,
Amy
I'm so sorry, I've been praying since the beginning when I stumbled upon your blog a few months ago. Hold to Jesus!

I have enjoyed your blog so much. You've shown so much strength and persued God through it all. I am picturing Jesus holding Tristan right now. What a beautiful site! I am praying for you. What a precious 56 days you were blessed with! (((Hugs)))
Praying and shedding tears with you all. Thanking God for the amazing miracle He gave you to share 56 days with your sweet Tristan. May you look forward to sharing eternity with him. Until then may He comfort your heart. Also praying for your sweet big boy Tanner.

I have not written on here before but I have been following your blog since Tristan was born. Our little boy Theodore died unexpectedly in October just 5 hours after he was born from respiritory difficulties associated with dwarfism. He was our first baby.
I have been praying for you guys and I'm so sad that you have to endure this pain. Although I miss Theo very much I am so grateful for those few hours with him and have no regrets. I am so glad you have 56 days of memories to hold onto and I promise you that as the pain eases, it gives way to precious memories and pride.
Hang in there and we will continue to pray for you all.
Love and Prayers,
Clare and Andy Dungey

I don't even know what words to say right now. But please know that your family is in my thoughts and prayers.
Words cannot express the sorrow I feel for your family. I will continue to Pray!!

God holds our tears in a bottle. He cares about you and loves you all so much.

I prayed for you all night and my mind kept seeing Tanner's face. Tanner, God has His hand on you. I hope your Mom and Dad will continue to keep us posted on your family because I can't wait to see where God leads you. You have an amazing heart, Tanner, and it shows through your countenance.

I am so sorry for your loss. I heard about your family through Susie's blog. God bless and may you all find strength in these hard times. (hugs)
My heart aches for you and your family! I will continue to pray for your family for strength at this time.
14 years ago drs. advised my daughter to abort her baby because she tested positive for T18. She politely told the drs her God was bigger than any test, then changed drs. Prayers were prayed for that baby from all over the world. She was born with no signs of T18. We praise God everyday for her healing, but especially on her birthday. She will be 13 next month. I shudder to think what we would have missed had my daughter not had such an unwavering faith in God. I found your blog through an email I received from my church here in Jax. You have been such a blessing to me as you walked through this time and have shown me much about my own faith. God bless your family and I pray for HIS peace and comfort in the coming days.
i caught your blog thru kenzie stanfields (she's my cousin). my thoughts & prayers are with you. i'm sorry for your loss.
Yvette I am so sorry to hear about your lose, I know your little boy was your miracle and you and your family are in my prayers. If their is anything I can do please let me know...
Praying for your family!
Dearest Yvette,
I am so very, very sorry that your angel has flown from your arms. I am praying for you and your whole family. I am praying for the sweet boy who we all grew to love so much, thanks to his abundantly loving and generous mom. May God embrace you so tightly right now and provide all that you need.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I have been following your blog since Tristan's birth and this was not the update I was expecting. I will continue to keep you and your family in my prayers. Please let us know how you are doing when you are able.
I just wanted to say again how very sorry I am for your loss. I've been following Tristan's story since the day he was born. My heart goes out to you and your entire family.

One more beautiful soul gone to grace the streets of heaven. He will be greatly missed.
so sorry for your loss. i am so glad that you had that precious time with him, thank you for sharing his sweet life with us
I have been following your blog since hearing about your miracle baby and have prayed for Tristan and for you all. It is with sadness for you that I learn of his passing this morning. I have never seen a family so dedicated to it's tiniest member as you all were. May our Lord comfort your hearts today and in the days to come. As for Tristan, he is safely arrived at home in Heaven, and he is healthy and whole. It is for you, his dear family, that I pray for today. Thank you for inspiring my heart to love my family as lovingly and sacrificially as you loved Tristan.
I have been reading your blog every day since Tristan was born to check on him and your family. I am so shocked and saddened to hear that he is no longer with us. I have been praying for your family and will continue to do so in the difficult days that lie ahead. May you feel God's loving arms of comfort around you.
I have read your blog daily and have prayed for you constantly. I have been so touched by your family. I, as well as my church family, will continue to pray for you at such a hard time. May our good God comfort you and your family.

I hadn't been to your blog in a couple of days, so I had some catching up to do. This was the first post that popped up. I didn't want it to be true. I went back to read the other posts, hoping that once I got to sunday, the post would have changed. I'm so sorry for your loss. You and your family are in my prayers.

I have been following you since before Tristan was born. I jsut finished reading a book series about the Cherokee Indians. And before Chief Sequia passed away he used the saying Bright are the Stars. And I believe the stars are even brighter now that Tristan is in heaven.
I am praying for you. I am praying for you. I am praying for you right now. I have been following your story since before Tristan's birth, and oh, how I am praying for you especially now.
We are praying for your family during this difficult time. We are saddened by the loss, but very grateful for the time that you were able to spend with him. We know that the Lord will provide you with the strength and support you need right now. We love you and want you to know that we are here for you whatever your needs may be.
Sincerely,

I have followed precious Tristan's life almost every day since I learned of the Blog space. I have prayed for you, not even beginning to understand the bittersweet time you have had with him. What an angel! His story and your faith in dealing with his 56 days here with us have blessed and encouraged so many people. I spoke with Pat at church Sun. morning and asked about him. Know that we love you and will continue to pray for you as you go through this time - knowing he is with Jesus all healthy and whole!
I have been reading your blog for about three weeks now and sharing your joy as you loved and cared for Tristan. It is with deep sadness that I now read of his passing, but I am joyful that he is now in the arms of Jesus; able to run and sing with the angels! Your entire family is in my heart and prayers. Much, much love from Pennsylvania.
You and your family are in our prayers here in Wisconsin
My heart is aching right now! I have been following your family for the last 55 days and admiring the determination and fight in little Tristan. Our family will continue to pray for you all! What cherished memories you have created with Tristan these last 55 days! God bless you all!
I hope that you can find some peace in these next few days and weeks. Tristan taught us so much about living in the moment.
Our hearts are heavy for you. You have done such a great job loving Tristan and caring for him night and day. Praying that the Lord will uphold you all and strengthen you. Praying especially for Tanner - such a good big brother - that the Lord will comfort him and use this for good in his life.
You are loved!

I feel like someone punched me in the stomach. I'm just sick. I've grown to love that little guy. Praying for you all in TN.
I am so sorry that your little boy is no longer with you but he is safe in the arms of Jesus. You took such good care of him and loved him so much. What a sweet boy.
I am praying for you and your family. I am thankful that God answered so many prayers and kept you guys from having to make so many difficult decisions. I pray that God's peace will flood your hearts as you grieve for your precious boy.

I have been praying all along and will continue.
Oh my gosh - this is not at all what I expected to read today! You don't know me, but I have been a daily follower of your blog. Your entire family has been a true inspiration to me.

I am Kenzie Stanfield's Aunt and I have been praying for baby Tristan also. Now it's his turn, I'm sure he is in heaven right now praying for his family.
I am sad for your loss yet comforted that you were blessed with 50+ days with your little miracle.
God bless you all,

Keeping you in my prayers and heavy on my heart. What a beautiful angel--now all rejoice.
I've been reading your blog for a while now..I've read all of your 56 days with Tristan. I am so sorry to hear your news, yet at the same so happy Tristan was able to spend 56 days with such a WONDERFUL, LOVING family. You are all truly a blessing and a wonderful example to others.
My heart goes out to you along with many prayers. May the Lord keep you in His safe and loving arms as He is holding Tristan in His arms.

My heart goes out to you. I will be praying for your precious family.
Dear Hostetter family,
There are seemingly no words to say at a time when you are deeply grieving the loss of your precious son, Tristan. Our hearts hurt so terribly for your GREAT loss!
I haved prayed for you every time I've thought of you...during the night and throughout the day. I trust Our Lord is meeting specific needs you have each moment of every hour.
A dear friend shared something with me soon after her husband passed away last February 14th that I will never forget. Thanks to the wisdom and discerning heart of her daughter in law, my friend is comforted by these words..."We were in the presence of Jesus when He came to get [him]".
I pray that this thought will comfort your hearts as well...
Have you ever imagined the sweet knowledge of Jesus passing through your room, as he cradled little Tristan into His arms and took him to Heaven?
The loss of Tristan is still very GREAT at this time but I pray your heavy hearts will soon lift and REJOICE in the confidence of his new body and perfect home in heaven with Jesus.
Thank you for sharing your family with ours. We will continue to pray for all of you.
Blessings to your precious family,
The Gray family, Jacksonville, FL
may the Lord be with you all and give you peace and comfort during this time. thank you so much for sharing your journey with us! love and prayers from south jersey!
Hi, as you have probably read to many times on your comments, you don't know me.. but somehow I came across your blogg a couple of weeks ago and have been checking in.. I didn't get a chance to check yesterday, but was sooooo sad to see that little Tristan passed away.. I am so sorry for your loss, and I am rejoicing that we know that he is with Jesus, and feeling great and not sick... I can't imagine what you are going through, and I am not even going to try.. I am praying for comfort, for strength, for peace and for blessings all around you....
A song I heard once by bebe and cece winans....
here we are again,
that old familiar place
where the wind will blow
no one ever knows the time or space
don't cry for me,
don't shed a tear,
the time I shared with you will always be
and when I'm gone,
still carry on,
don't cry for me
don't cry when life is not the joy it should be
with life comes pain
soon time
will lead it's course appointed
and you will be rewarded
and all the world will see
don't cry for me,
don't shed a tear
the time I shared with you will always be
and when I'm gone
life still carries on
don't cry for me
don't cry for me
we'll always be
don't cry for me..
that is all I can remember of it, so I hope this helps you knowing maybe how tristan might feel...
I know you cherish every moment you shared with him and every minute counted..
I don't know you, but I could tell that you loved the Lord and you were a great family and I know the Lord is going to give you peace and strength as you cherish his memory and the time you got to know your little man!
God Bless YOU!
don't cry
We are a homeschool Family in Tennessee and have friends and Family in Jacksonville who alerted us to your need for prayer and directed us to your blog. I actually attended church at FBC for 24 years. Madison Scott ( 1 of our daughters) was in Sunday school with your son Tanner for a number of years then we moved away. Our family and friends here having been praying for your family and will continue to do so. Every night during our family worship, our children ask about Tristan. Thank you for sharing this very personal journey I know it had to be very difficult. Your blog has ministered to our family in many ways. We almost lost our son at 2 days old, and I lived with the watching and monitors ect for about 8 months. I know those sleepless nights. I also know how encouraging it was to have people we did not even know praying and crying out to our Lord on behalf of our son.
I know you are comforted knowing he is with our Lord and yet sad at the same time. Please know we are praying for you all.

When I checked on Tristan this morning, my heart sank. I don't know how one little baby that I don't even know came into my life. I thought about what you wrote that one of the doctors had said early on about how Tristan would probably start having bad days toward the end (my wording is probably not right but I believe you know what I am talking about), and since he had been doing so well, I thought he would be with us longer. I am thankful that he had been having good nights and that the "bad" was limited. He is a beautiful boy and I will miss him. Your family is in my prayers. I think you have done a lot of living in 56 days- more than many families do in a lifetime.
I am sending many many prayers and positive thoughts to you all.
Your precious little Tristan has touched so many lives. I will pray that you and your family will feel God's amazing loving grace today and in the days ahead. Tristan is in the presence of Jesus and I know that will give you great comfort.
May God continue to bless you and your family
Praying for the whole family in S.C. Like so many, I have kept up with Tristan from the beginning. Hurting for you so much but sooo thankful we have Jesus to go home to. Much love to you ALL!
Praying for the Joy of 56 days wit beautiful Tristan to fill your hearts right now.
Prayers and Love from Texas.
I am so sorry for your loss...but am happy that Tristan is with our Lord and not hurting or suffering at all. What a sweet little angel. I am so happy and thankful that your precious family was able to spend 56 great days with Tristan. I will be keeping your family in my prayers.
I have been following your great story for months and really admire the great christian woman/wife/mother that you are. I know Tristan felt nothing but LOVE while here on earth from his parents and sweet brothers.
I found this blog this weekend and was thrilled to read about your little boy and his success.He's beautiful. I've never really prayed before but I'm going to say one for you
My prayers are with you. Your older son is so wise. I pray this is truth for your family:
Your post of August 18, 2007 -
and then Tanner, our 11 yr. old, said, "You know what mommy, maybe the reason the Lord waited 10 years to send us Tayden is because He knew we'd all need him right now because he's just so wild and silly!" I said, "Maybe you're right Tanner, maybe Tayden will (without even knowing it) be the one who helps us heal during this difficult time and maybe he will keep us laughing when we really don't want to."
I am so sorry to hear of Tristan's sudden passing. I have been reading your blog almost daily and praying for you. I don't think your family could have enjoyed or cherished your little one any more than you did. I will be praying for all of you. May the Lord Jesus comfort and strengthen each of you.

I've been reading your blog every day and praying heavily for you and your family. I always hold my breath as I go to your site each morning- hoping that things are still good for sweet little Tristan. My heart just broke when I saw this post. I am praying for you and your sweet family. Your faith has been truly amazing and inspiring.

You and your family have been in my thought and prayers ever since Tristan was born Dec. 3.I pray that God will give your family strength through this difficult time. But the days Tristan was here were a blessing from God!
Our family is praying for all of you! We have all been blessed on this journey of Tristan's miraculous life! You are being lifted up!

Little Tristan has touched my life. I've been following your blog the past week or so and have come to enjoy hearing about your journey.
I know your hearts must be a mix of grief and sadness, but now joy for Tristan that he is healthy and with our Lord.
I will be praying for you all as you adjust to a changed life.

We are so saddened by your loss of little Tristan. You are in our prayers as we ask our Heavenly Father to give you comfort and peace, but most of all reassurance that Tristan is indeed whole and happy in His loving arms. Our hearts are broken for you but also in awe of your unwavering faith and commitment. May God grant you healing and joy in the days to come. Give Tanner a big hug from us.
We love you,

I have been away this weekend ~ just now checking blogs. I am saddened by Tristan's death. Words will never be able to express how deeply sorry I am for your loss. 327 people have commented before me. I do want to say that your family has been a wonderful testimony of facing life's challenges. I will continue to pray for you as you go through this new phase in your lives.
I am so sorry for your loss. I have also been a dedicated reader and have prayed diligently since Tristan's birth. Love to your sweet family.

I happened upon your website right after Tristan was born. I can't even remember how anymore.... Your story, your baby and your faith kept me coming back daily. I prayed for you and your family every day and I'm so sorry that Tristan's loss came so fast. Even though you accept the illness and understand the progression, when it happens so quickly, I'm sure it was quite shocking. I love the pictures you took of him right before he died where you could see his mouth forming sounds. He was a beautiful baby and though his time here was short, I believe he probably felt more love around him than some people experience in their entire lives. He was a lucky little guy and won't it be wonderful to be reunited in Heaven? May God be with you and your family until that day and may you be comforted by knowing that it won't be long until you are together again for all of eternity!
Thinking of you all today as you celebrate Tristan's short, but wonderful life. Your story has touched the lives of many and I pray that you will know the peace of God during this difficult time.
I was saddened to read of Tristan's passing. You have been a witness to everyone that has read your blog. I'm not sure how anyone could get through what you have gone through without Jesus. Thank you Jesus for little Tristan's life and for all the love he was given in his short life. My prayers are with you.
