Each moment of the day...
...is precious and should be treated as such. Hold them as tight as you can and as long as you can. Don't let go until they literally wiggle away from you. Tell them a thousand times a day how much you love them. Make it count. We are looking forward to the moment her eyes open again, the moment she wakes up and can hear our voices again, the moment we can scoop her into our arms and not let go.
Were busy "dodging bullets" (the doctors exact words). We are supporting her many different systems. Respiratory, adrenal, renal, immune, neurological, cardiovascular. It is very complex. She seems to be holding on to this stable place. No answers have been found. Nothing has come back positive so far. She will be taken to CT later on today to take a more detailed look into her lungs. Her chest x-ray is worse, but we were told to expect that for the next few days.
Thank you for remembering her in prayer today.

Just looking at her tells me how strong the 2 of you are by showing such fortitude. It breaks my heart to see her so "hooked" up. God Bless you for all you have done for her to this point.
She is a fighter and I just know that God put that discernment in your hearts to bring her to the doctor at JUST the RIGHT time to help save her. You are following His plan, I believe that and I hope you do too.
She will show God's plan to you by coming through this trial too.
I hope you can feel all the prayers of all of us who are keeping you constantly in our thoughts 24/7. May God's Peace fill your hearts as you continue to wait for your pickle's eyes to open.
We are remembering your family during this very difficult time. We are asking God to supply the doctors and nurses with the knowledge that they need to bring Ashley completely back to her family. Know that you are loved and prayed for constantly. Denise
Praying that something will finally show up in her tests so they can know how best to treat her. I am thankful she seems stable for now. Continuing in much prayer. I love you all!

Hang on to Jesus until you can hold on to Ash. He's holding on to both of you and even tighter to her. She is in His arms until she can be in yours. Praying night and day for her full recovery in record time! Praying for both of you mind, body,and spirit. Praying for Blake and Allie in every way. Keep trusting and know that He WILL supply your every need! "I will never leave you nor forsake you, saith the Lord."
Thanks again for sharing Trish....we are MOST definitely praying today and always! Not one minute goes by that we don't think of you all. I pray for sweet little Ashley to open her eyes and give you and Dave a great big HUGE smile very soon!
Hang in there...with all these prayers there is no other way for her to go but to get better!!!
May God hold you in His arms now & always.

Isaiah 41:10
Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.
Praying with all my heart today for your family.
Hope...
I am so thankful that she is stable for now, but oh how my heart aches for you and Dave to see her dodging bullets, away and out of reach for you right now. Praying so hard for your hearts to feel the Lords peace in the midst of all that is going on.
Asking Him to provide an answer to what is going on in her little body right now. Prayers won't stop here.
Love and Hugs, Laurie in Ca.
my heart breaks for you! I am praying and checking in - can I just THANK you so much for the updates? Thank you for telling her story - for sharing her with us - for letting us come along side of you and love you and pray for you! Bless your hearts! Sunshine
We're keeping on praying--and praying and praying!
With Love,
Holly and Chris
she's beautiful, even now...
Thanks for the update and the picture. I can tell how much bigger she looks there. That just means she is that much tougher and stronger on the inside. She's a fighter - you've proved that to us many times. Still praying for you and your family. Love, Stephanie
Lord God hear our prayers today for this precious child. She is your child and needs you now Lord. God I trust that this family is in your hands and know that good things can come from this. We stand firm on the word of God and believe now, Lord for a miracle. That is what it is going to take. Her family has taken care of her and is calling on you for help and I believe in Jesus' name that your are at work for this family. Amen~
Praying for wisdom for the doctors to know exactly what to do for this precious little one. We pray, laying sweet Ashley in the Fathers hands - knowing HE alone is able to make her whole and well again.
Love from MD

Lord, thank you for your mighty hand upon our family. Thank you so much for sisters and brothers in Christ willing to pray for a miracle with a name. Thank you so much for Ashley and the blessing she has been to so many. Please hold her up right now, and hold up David, Trish and the kids right along with her. And help me, Lord, to be and do all that I should. In JESUS Precious Mighty Miraculous Name.
How long will Dave be able to be with you?
Praying that they find answers soon. Hang in there. It's tough when that's exactly how you feel- Like you're just "hanging in there". But I am praying that peace that passes all understanding will flood your heard and mind, no matter what the doctors throw at you. Remember, the Almighty wants to fight your battles for you. It's not your battle to win, it's HIS. He just wants you to rest in his unchanging love and in his great power, and find comfort under the shadow of His wings.
Just wanted you to know that my pastor just e-mailed me to let me know that he has put Ashley in our Sunday Morning prayer bulletin at church. We love you, and are praying that you can have some kind of congitive response from Ashley soon.
Love seeing that beautiful baby girl. :) Holding fast in prayer for your family.

I hadn't checked the blog for a few days. I am so sorry. I had no idea things had gotten so bad. I will be lifting you and Ash and Dave and the rest of your family to the throne everytime I think of you. John 11:4
... This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified thereby.
Still praying and asking others to pray as well.
Oh man, it just tears me up to see your little one that way.
Continued prayers and much love is being directed your way by lots of people!
God knows what's right even though it is not understandable right now.
((Hugs))
I just wanted to say you and your precious baby are in my heart and in my prayers. Today is the first time that I have looked at your blog and I can't stop thinking about you. I have prayed several times today and will continue to pray and I know that God is watching over you all. Hugs to you all.
Praying, praying for you all.
She has impacted so many peoples lives . Ever since reading your story-as you put it-she hasdefinately left imprints all over my heart.

I am sending much prayer your way for Ashley and your entire family.
God Bless,
Julie
May you have faith that you and Ashley are resting in God's loving arms during this horrible time. Know that my prayers for healing are with you
I read your whole blog. It took 2 days! I have had every emotion possible, ending with wow- you are one amazing family. Ashley is in God's hands. We pray to her creator, he already knows how it all turns out. He isn't just along for the ride.
He is good, his mercy is everlasting. You will make it, and life will go on. I am praying for you my sister.
I am weeping at the feet of Jesus and petitioning Him for Ashley's recovery. I also seek Him for comfort and strength for you both, as well as you two keeping vigil at home.
So be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might
Put on all His armor and fight the good fight
In all of our weakness, He becomes so strong
When He gives us the power and the strength to carry on ... (Petra)
Dave and Trish,
Since we flew you, I've been lifting you all before our Fathers Thorne of Grace and I will continue to do so.
In His Name
