You both are amazing. Come Home Soon! hi
Hi Jacquie, hope you are feeling better today. You are almost to 60 days ! Keep your eye on the prize! You are working so hard and doing such a great job. Day 100 is getting closer! Clapping Praying BELIVEING Missy
Hey Jax, First of all I would like to wish your Mom a belated birthday! You are both such strong women and I hope you were able to spend an enjoyable day together for a happy occasion. Jax I hope you are feeling better soon, I was driving to work the other day and saw a tink sticker on the car in front of me and immediately smiled and thought out you. You know I have those brief moments of the sun kissing your face after a long winter, or the smell of the grass and the sight of the first flower’s that are being planted. I have these moments alot lately since the weather change and I find myself closing my eyes, smiling, taking in the moment and thinking of you. I think of your strength of which I look up to, your smile that I miss and your demeanor that’s so much enjoyed. I think of you in hopes that as far away as you are that you can share in that smile and that moment with me. My thoughts, love and prayers are with you always and I find that you are always with me during the fascinating small moments in life that take my breath away. I will continue to keep you with me and hopefully some of those moments and my love reach you. Stay strong and always remember I BELIEVE in you!!!! xoxoxoxxoox Fial

04/16/08 Good Morning Dear Jacquie: First my apologies for not writing sooner. As I drove to work this morning past the lake at U.B., the dawn was breaking and it was beautiful. Which led me to thoughts of you, your smile, your courage, your beauty, your resilience, your capacity to love and work through the tribulations you are facing. Please know I have prayed for you every morning, each night and lifted your name in church during prayers for the people every Sunday I have been able to attend. Be strong, keep the faith and let God comfort you and your family. It was such an honor to work at the fund raiser and be among the throng of friends, supporters and Jacquie Zealots. Your appearance that afternoon was beyond inspiring! I wait for the day you can come visit me at my house, since your mom has blown me off for 10 years now, and toast your full recovery. I love receiving the updates from your Dad and Aunt Val. It reassures me you will be victorious. Keep the faith – we love you and support you always. Give your mom a hug for me. Jim
Dear Jaquie,Hang in there, this fever is just a little speed bump on your road to recovery.We’re sending you all of our strength through our prayers. Wishing you a better tomorrow, Clapping, Praying, BelievingMissy
Dear Jacquie — A day doesn’t go by that we don’t send positive thoughts and prayers to you and your family. As I faithfully read your mom’s (and dad’s!) amazing, inspiring and beautiful updates, I am so overwhelmingly moved by the strength and determination you have shown on this journey. I find it so ironic that you who has endured such a tough illness is the one who is healing so many around you. Jacquie, as your mom has so eloquently expressed, there truly is a reason you were put on this earth… to touch and inspire countless people… those near and far to you. Thank you for helping us allBELIEVE!!! Love — Elise
hello my dear friend. I am sorry to hear you are still running a low grade tempy & aren’t quite feeling yourself yet. I think about you all the time, and wish so hard that I could make you better… but I know that all I can for you right now is give you words of strength and encouragement to hopefully help ease the burden of this daunting and tiresome battle you have been fighting. I know everyone says this all the time, but keep on fighting, don’t ever give in for even one second, because we all know you can beat this. I told you last week that it would be mid-April before we knew it, and guess what? Today is April 15th, so there ya go, we are already smack dab in the middle of April! I know it might not seem like it, however, time is slowly but surely moving forward… and each minute of each day is getting you closer to day 100! So even if its a minute when you are feeling so exhausted, crummy, and tired of everything, know that that minute is one you will never have to relive again, and that minute is getting you on to living the rest of your life! So keep on fighting, and keep on shining! You are the brightest star in the sky, and each day you shine even brighter!!!We all love you so much, there is a special place in my heart that will forever be reserved for Miss Jacqueline Elisabeth Hirsch!! I love you!WE BELIEVE WE BELIEVE WE BELIEVE<3 delisha <3 p.s. sorry for rambling, it just happens sometimes hahap.p.s. isn’t Whitney’s new boss on the Hills completely terrifying? I think she eats toddlers for breakfast...
Hi Jacquie!! I just wanted to let you know that you are always in my prayers and I am so impressed with your strength!! IN OUR PRAYERS!! Brooks’ mom!! Lynn
Thinking of you, your mom, dad and TJ. Wishing you all good things, for you to get stronger and for your body to heal and feel better with each minute. Love, Sara and family!
Hey jax! i’m currently in florida right now, but i still check your site everyday! last night we went shopping, and i found a beautiful tinkerbell necklace. I bought it right away without even thinking about it, and i havent taken it off since [and i dont plan to] its my little way of keeping you close to my heart every single day! i love you and i’m so proud of you for making it this far! its all smooth sailing from here! <3
Remember when we were about thirteen and you we were having a sleepover and you asked me to teach you how to pray?…well, i just felt like sharing with you that you have taught me a whole new way of praying/how to pray because i think about you in EVERY prayer and your moms words and messages are so inspiring whenever i read your site that its added so much to my prayer…so I just wanted to share that becusae I find it ironic that you are ALWAYS IN MY PRAYERS. love ya. nick.
Well…in Saras message she mentions my last message and the words i chose to write to you and your mom…i have to say…I find it difficult to be SO great… naaah…it is pretty easy… peace
Hi Pedro! Hope your feeling better today. I’m glad that your dad was able to come and spend some time with you and your mom. I think about the both of you all the time! We are all counting the days until you are back home! We are going to wait until you and your mom are back to have Olivia’s birthday party. It’s wouldn’t feel right to have it without you guys! So rest up!! I’m trying to teach Olivia how to blow out her candles…believe me, you don’t want to miss it!LOL My love to you both!
Hey sweetie! Just checking to see if you’re feeling any better today. This week is supposed to be really nice…sunny and almost 70! It’s gotta be getting warmer there too. Hopefully the sunshine and the warm temperatures will help brighten your week! Get some rest and take good care of yourself and your mom too! Hope you feel better soon and get your energy up to enjoy some sun this week! I love you! See you soon! Keep believing!!!! ~XOXO~
Ms. Jax’s – just a short note to say I hope this finds you feeling better and continuing to move forward. You are thought about, prayed for, loved and missed. Mrs. Lags

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TWIN SISTER!!! (I can’t believe you are that old!!!) I feel so bad that you are going through all this and I’m not there with you. But just think of the celebration we will have next year when all of this is behind us! Somebody asked me once if I minded “sharing” my birthday with someone else…honestly, I couldn’t imagine my life (or birthday) without you! We were together at the start, and we’ll be together til the end!! I love and admire you sooo much, and I’m so greatful that God made you my twin. With all my love today and always, Sheryl

(don’t tell her i said that!!) ahh i miss you so much! get that fever DOWNNN jerk or it’s gonna be me yelling at you for “being sick and not being able to come visit” haha. my mom says hi anddd i think that’s about all. “here’s to you, here’s to me, friends forever we’ll always be but if we tend to disagree……” WELL WE WONT BECAUSE I LOVE YOU FOREVER…. so i don’t need to finish that statement haha.. but the folly’s sure are in need of you. love love love

hey jax! i hope your doing well today..keep that temp down please! heres an idea.. you should put on every item of clothing you have including the “new” sweatshirt lagree got you a while ago, HAHA which is so funny, the stripe one you got made fun of for wearing alot, all the other clothing items im sure you recieved and top it off with the harley davidson robe and SWEAT IT OUT! and i don’t want you putting on any of that sweaty medicine you have either..which burns..because getting rid of this fever can happen over night!!!

04/16/08 Good Morning Dear Jacquie: First my apologies for not writing sooner. As I drove to work this morning past the lake at U.B., the dawn was breaking and it was beautiful. Which led me to thoughts of you, your smile, your courage, your beauty, your resilience, your capacity to love and work through the tribulations you are facing. Please know I have prayed for you every morning, each night and lifted your name in church during prayers for the people every Sunday I have been able to attend. Be strong, keep the faith and let God comfort you and your family. It was such an honor to work at the fund raiser and be among the throng of friends, supporters and Jacquie Zealots. Your appearance that afternoon was beyond inspiring! I wait for the day you can come visit me at my house, since your mom has blown me off for 10 years now, and toast your full recovery. I love receiving the updates from your Dad and Aunt Val. It reassures me you will be victorious. Keep the faith – we love you and support you always. Give your mom a hug for me. Jim

Dear Jacquie — A day doesn’t go by that we don’t send positive thoughts and prayers to you and your family. As I faithfully read your mom’s (and dad’s!) amazing, inspiring and beautiful updates, I am so overwhelmingly moved by the strength and determination you have shown on this journey. I find it so ironic that you who has endured such a tough illness is the one who is healing so many around you. Jacquie, as your mom has so eloquently expressed, there truly is a reason you were put on this earth… to touch and inspire countless people… those near and far to you. Thank you for helping us allBELIEVE!!! Love — Elise

hello my dear friend. I am sorry to hear you are still running a low grade tempy & aren’t quite feeling yourself yet. I think about you all the time, and wish so hard that I could make you better… but I know that all I can for you right now is give you words of strength and encouragement to hopefully help ease the burden of this daunting and tiresome battle you have been fighting. I know everyone says this all the time, but keep on fighting, don’t ever give in for even one second, because we all know you can beat this. I told you last week that it would be mid-April before we knew it, and guess what? Today is April 15th, so there ya go, we are already smack dab in the middle of April! I know it might not seem like it, however, time is slowly but surely moving forward… and each minute of each day is getting you closer to day 100! So even if its a minute when you are feeling so exhausted, crummy, and tired of everything, know that that minute is one you will never have to relive again, and that minute is getting you on to living the rest of your life! So keep on fighting, and keep on shining! You are the brightest star in the sky, and each day you shine even brighter!!!We all love you so much, there is a special place in my heart that will forever be reserved for Miss Jacqueline Elisabeth Hirsch!! I love you!WE BELIEVE WE BELIEVE WE BELIEVE<3 delisha <3 p.s. sorry for rambling, it just happens sometimes hahap.p.s. isn’t Whitney’s new boss on the Hills completely terrifying? I think she eats toddlers for breakfast...

Remember when we were about thirteen and you we were having a sleepover and you asked me to teach you how to pray?…well, i just felt like sharing with you that you have taught me a whole new way of praying/how to pray because i think about you in EVERY prayer and your moms words and messages are so inspiring whenever i read your site that its added so much to my prayer…so I just wanted to share that becusae I find it ironic that you are ALWAYS IN MY PRAYERS. love ya. nick.
