It just has to be ALL ABOUT ROBYNN! She gets ALL the glory!
She just has to "one up" us all on a daily basis. Alright Chick, that's enough!
We got the "memo" on how extraordinary you are...no need to rub our nose in it!;))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) You and Brian's posts put me to shame! I mean how do I follow the 2 of you? It's very bad for my self-esteem! Take it easy on me would ya!!??
I guess it's nothing a few happy pills+cocktails can't cure!
So why the heck am I whining? OK, I'm better now! hehe
Most of you obviously know how fabulous Robynn and Brian were before all this started. But if you are like me, you must sit in AWE when you see how they have responded to these deplorable circumstances. It not only renews my faith in the Lord, but it renews my faith in this world. What I have witnessed from all of you, as well as perfect strangers is an absolute PHENOMENON!
For the record, my brother did not just become who you read about in this blog since this disease showed up. He has been the same son, brother,grandson, cousin, uncle, husband, father and friend since God chose that he join us here on earth. He has always gone the extra mile to show the ones he loves they are what is most important to him.
In walk Robynn 12 years ago...Brian's PERFECT mirror! Someone as honorable and filled with what is good, far beyond what most of us expect to see in our lives. What has happened in the past 2 months is no accident! I believe God chose Brian and Robynn very carefully. The effect this is having on all of our lives would not have been accomplished by using anyone else. What
better example of love, faith, courage, perseverance, grace and devotion than that of which Robynn and Brian display daily. Do I wish God had chosen another couple...you BETCHA! But I know in my heart, we might not have paid attention!
You have our Full Attention Dear Lord, please show us how to use it for Your Glory!
I love you all for the support you have each have given our family! Our cup overflows!
Battle on faithful warriors!
XOXO,
S

I'm with ya Shelley! Count me in on the happy pills & cocktails... I'm gonna need it! ha ha!
And don't you worry your pretty little head! We love you even if you're not the daughter of Joan & Zeus (yes, I'm on to you Joan! Stop denying it!) or the Man of the Year/Decade!
I was wondering... will you be starting another blog once Robynn completes her recovery? I don't know what I'll do with myself otherwise! ;)
KEEP ON PUTTING US TO SHAME ROBYNN!!!
LOVE, HUGS AND PRAYERS!!!!!

Now see...Crying can somethimes get your juices flowing. After a good cry, somethimes we feel empowered! So thank you Brian, Robynn...and Shelley....because I have the fortune of having 2 dear friends whose computers are down, and yet they are so into reading your blogs... so I got to read it to them....or should I say BLUBBER it to them. But after having a really good cry on the phone with them and talking about you guys and how amazing you are...dude, I feel so much STRENGTH for Robynn!!! You were so right Shelley...God has reached so many people by putting 'this burden' on Robynn and Brain and your family. We are all renewing our faith in the Lord through all of you. Thank you for that.
We FIGHT ON WITH PRAYER!!!
We love you all!!!

You are all beautiful, amazing inspirations.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL!!!!

Dear Family:
Together you are a team. But, individually, you each have your parts and roles to play. Some players have strengths in areas that others may not; but, working together, you are a strong force. You all have shown the world what family means. You have shown the world what it means to stick together to make a strong chain. When one link gets weak, the other links are there to support it, continuing to leave the entire chain strongly in tact. That's what I see in all of you. The common goal...to get Robynn well and back on her feet; and although you don't see the fans, you are hearing us loudly and clearly. We are all cheering for Robynn. We're also there to support you all if you get weak. Now the most astounding thing is that GOD has all of us covered. He's one, but HE can hold up all of us. Pray on, pray on, pray on; and may you continue to allow your link to further strengthen the chain.

Hi Aunt Robynn--
We love you and miss you bunches! We can't wait to see Brady and Hailey this weekend!
Love, Polly and Bobbi :)
Shelly-
You are fantastic and you captured the truth of the matter. We could easily say why Robynn...and trust me I have. Why not the bad guys who broke into my car THREE times in ONE month! Why not the bad people of the world? But Shelly, you nailed it. God is working through Robynn and Brian to remind us all how special HE is and that he is in all of our lives.
You show how fantastic you are too Shelly. You treat Robynn like gold and you all restore my faith in the wonderful people of the world. Thank you for that.
Keep up the great writings, fighting, praying, loving!
Love~Bree
Dear Robynn and Brian
You have been in our thoughts and prayers daily. We have the greatest respect for the two of you, and we are here to help in any capacity.
Love
Charlie and Leslie Sauer
