Happy Endings

Here we are, a week and a half back at school and still I haven't updated. I have been putting this off for days, partly because I truly will miss updating this for Trent and partly because I'm just not sure of what to say. There are no words for what you have done for us in the last six weeks. The power of your prayers is remarkable and is the reason for Trent's speedy recovery. When we arrived at KU Medical Center and they fully assessed Trent's burns, we were told to expect a 6-week hospital stay. On day 12, he came home...now here we are six weeks and three days after the accident and we are posting Trent's final update. Trent's doctors have no explanation for his incredible recovery but to us, its very simple. Your love, support, and most of all, your prayers are the strongest healing force in the world, and for that we are forever grateful to you. Thank you, thank you, thank you, from the bottom of our hearts. Enjoy these photos, and see what incredible gift you have given us.

This photo is from the day after our last update. Trent rode the XC bus to their meet and the team gave him quite a warm welcome......



...complete with custom made "Running For Trent" t-shirts. Have I said how amazing these kids are?



Trent went on to run that day for the JV team and placed 14th.


The first picture is from August 16, the day after Trents accident. The second one is from the cross country meet yesterday, right after Trent's run. Trent finished 13th with a time of 22:37, earning him a spot on the VARSITY team! This is what you all have done, and it is nothing short of a miracle!




Thank you again for following this blog and uplifting Trent and our family in your prayers. Truly Trent's healing is a miracle and six weeks ago we never thought we would be here so quickly...I was prepared to be keeping this blog for months! As always....love and thanks to you all, and may God bless you as much as you have blessed us.

  1. Trent, God is AMAZING....YOU are proof of it. Amen for a wonderful miricle. I hope you always remember God's awesome love he has for you. He has a really cool plan for you. We can't wait to see exactly what that plan is. We will be right there with you all the way to see that plan. We love you, Trent. Uncle Dale and Aunt Sherry. P.S. We love you like you are one of our own. Always remember that too.

  2. Isn't God AWSOME!! I agree with Sherry, God has a plan for you! You will never know how many lives were changed by you. Those that had given up on God, could see that He is in control and is working in peoples lives. For those that have never met our Savior, what a way for them to meet Him! Love, Aunt Paula
