It was so nice to get to know you all better this Summer, which makes it all the more difficult to think of what you’re going through. I’m really proud of you guys for going with your gut and not giving up until you had answers. I am in constant amazement at how well our bodies our designed and how they can put up a fine fight to combat any illness with determination. Mind over matter Erin, along with a lot of love, positive thoughts, prayers and Holy Spirit
“Therefore we do not give up, but even if the man we are outside is wasting away, certainly the man we are inside is being renewed from day to day. For though the tribulation is momentary and light, it works out for us a glory that is of more and more surpassing weight and is everlasting; while we keep our eyes, not on the things seen, but on the things unseen. For the things seen are temporary, but the things unseen are everlasting.” 2 Cor 4:16-18
With Love… Bambi, Erich, Ryan & Jordan

As we know, Jehovah is near to those broken in heart and crushed in spirit. He gives strength and power to the frail ones, even if they are frail only for a little while, as in your case Erin.

What a wonderful example you continue to demonstrate to your daughters, that of a courageous, faithful servant of Jehovah and in this, your Brothers and Sisters all stand next to you in this time of great challenge, feeling completely confident that Jehovah has grasped your hand, gently but firmly, guiding and protecting your way. Please remember that courage is defined as “Not deterred by danger or pain; brave” and continuing forward in spite of your fears. By your being persistent in a steady course of a positive mind and spirit – soon this trial will be but a vague memory as we shall all have a grand celebration when you are victorious against this foe. A continuous stream of prayers and love for each of your precious family until you return to our congregation and requests for you to have the peace that excels all thought and power beyond what is normal. Much love, Deborah
Larry & Joanne Jordan
My dear brother Gerrod, & sister Erin,
Please be assured of our love, hope and prayers (as well as the whole congregation) for you and your beautiful family as you fight through this horrible ordeal.
My prayers everyday are for our Great, Loving God Jehovah to intervene, and see that you get the very best care & treatment that is available.
Please let me share some scriptures with you, ones that have been very helpful to Joanne & I over the years in getting us through some very difficult situations.
As you read these, please hear Jehovah’s words to you:
(Proverbs 15:29) 29 … the prayer of the righteous ones he hears.
(Isaiah 43:4) Owing to the fact that you (Erin) have been precious in my eyes, you have been considered honorable, and I myself have loved you
(2 Corinthians 1:3, 4) Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of tender mercies and the God of all comfort, 4 who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those in any sort of tribulation through the comfort with which we ourselves are being comforted by God.
(1 Corinthians 13:7-8) Love… bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 8 Love never fails.
Because of our great love for you Erin, we have hope!!!-
Love, kisses & hugs to you and your family.
We miss you so much. Larry & Joanne.

Dear Erin and Fam:
We are all right there with you! You have a larger support of love and thoughts and prayers than you can imagine. Hang in there. Rely on Jehovah. Let the friends and Jehovah carry you through this. Jehovah never leaves his loyal ones. We are cheering you and your family on. Jehovah will give you strength beyond what is normal. You will look back on this later and might perhaps wonder “How did I get thru this?” Yet, you can reflect on all these expressions from the friends and know it’s only by Jehovah’s strength. Rock it! Love you!

Stephanie Guardino-Rodriguez
Gerrod and Erin, it has been a long time, but if you remember, I financed your first home at Five Star Funding. I remember Gerrod, when you and Erin married and how happy you were to share the news. I have never forgotten the two of you, and how God brings people back together, it would be my own daughter and her family that fell in love with your home and purchased it last month. We all have been praying for you Erin. You are an inspiration.
Carvalho Family
Hi Erin,
Whitney told me about this site. It is so beautiful! What a wonderful way to reach out to all your friends and family. We will keep you and your family in our prayers. I’ve learned from life to take one day at a time. Jesus knew what he was saying when he said that each day has it’s own anxiety. All we can do is take hold of and cherish each moment and memory as we recieve it and thank Jehovah because it is a blessing from him. You have a beautiful family that we hope to become more and more entangled with. All our love and prayers are sent via cyberspace until we meet in person once again.
Annalisa Boatsman-Mackall
I got my t-shirt today!!!! I will have to post a pic on Facebook. I love you and think about you and your amazing little family everyday. XOXOXOXO
Dawn
Erin, I thought of you a couple weeks ago when the congregation was reading Daniel 1-3. Despite how unrealistic and perhaps unfair the demand of the king was, Daniel asked for Jehovah’s help and he got it. So regardless of the demands this disease places on you, I know you and your friends, brothers and sisters continue to turn to and rely on Jehovah, just as Daniel did. Daniel 2.6 ”But if the dream and its interpretation YOU will show, gifts and a present and much dignity YOU will receive on my part. Therefore show me the very dream and its interpretation.” So Neb·u·chad·nez?zar not only wanted his dream interpreted, but for his servants to know what it was he dreamed, virtually mind-reading on their part. It seemed like a completely unreasonable and impossible demand. Yet with Jehovah’s help and because Daniel not only prayed, but asked his brothers to pray on his behalf for this specific thing, Daniel succeeded – against all odds. I am praying you too succeed against all odds. Agape!
Gerrod Rabak
My sweet baby!! I love you very much!! We want to thank everyone for their support and love. The comments on the site are so inspirational for us. Keep up the comments because it boosts our spirits and we love all of you! Thank you all for the kindness you all have shown!!!
Ashley Elledge-Sanderson
Hey guys.. I can not imagion what you are going thru, but I do know how much you are loved and prayed for! And how loving Jehovah is, that someday soon He is going to take all of these such things away!.. I know He is giving you His Holy Spirit every moment thru this painful journey. I wish I could be there to help with the girls, or cooking and cleaning- anything really. You have been a constant prayer of mine! Stay strong, positive and pray for that peace of mind and heart that only Jehovah can give us.. So much love for u all!!

Hello Erin, I don’t know if you will remember me but we use to be in the same congregation in Stockton(Country Club), My name was Sabrina Gray, My mom is Mary Gray, My Brother (elder) is James Gray. I just want you to know that I love you and I remember really liking you as well. I am so very proud of you, your strength is amazing, I’m very proud of your husband as well. My mother says hello and sends her love as well. I know that Jehvoah is sustaining you so that you will continue to get better. I am now a Nurse working for Kaiser (LOL):) I have also gotten married,(Sept.15 2012) my new last name is King, my husband’s name is Keith. I really want to keep in contact with you and hope you can find a little time to say hello, if not that’s quite alright, totally understand. You are my sister and my friend.

My dear Gerrod & Erin. Being part of our family, and the love we have for you, our words cannot truly express the love and hope we have for you. We pray everyday requesting that you get the best treatment & care that is available and the doctors be supplied with the wisdom & desire they need. You look beautiful, Erin. Hope to see you soon and thanks for being the fighter that you are. We love you so much.

Keep up the fight Erin! Please know that you, Gerry, Mia & Ava are in our prayers and we, along with so many others, are here cheering for you. Keep relying on Jehovah to supply you with the endurance that you need for the fight. We hope to see you back home soon.
Stephanie Calhoun
Hello Erin,
One of the most enlightening things that can come out of a personal crisis is to learn about your core self…Especially how deeply you can love others.
Your capacity to love, come what may, is the mirror that reflects how beautiful you are to Jehovah and others. It has nothing to do with status or physicality.
From what “I see,” you are “so beautiful” and can be “proud of your capacity to love.”
Also as a “bonus of endurance,” you get to know who “loves you as YOU.”
Remember:
A multitude of prayers continue to be sent to Jehovah in your behalf.
*Everything will be alright in God’s due time.
Eccl. 3:1 “For everything there is an appointed time, even a time for ever affair under the heavens.”
Rachel Schock (Fairbanks)
Erin,
Just watched the new video of you. You are beautiful and strong, and my heart cries for everything you and your family are going through. I truly hope that you are able to beat this. I’m keeping you in my prayers and thoughts often. Until the day (soon!) when we can all be healthy and happy in a beautiful paradise, may Jehovah’s spirit keep you and your family strong…
Sincerely,
Rachel Schock (Fairbanks)

It was so nice to get to know you all better this Summer, which makes it all the more difficult to think of what you’re going through. I’m really proud of you guys for going with your gut and not giving up until you had answers. I am in constant amazement at how well our bodies our designed and how they can put up a fine fight to combat any illness with determination. Mind over matter Erin, along with a lot of love, positive thoughts, prayers and Holy Spirit
“Therefore we do not give up, but even if the man we are outside is wasting away, certainly the man we are inside is being renewed from day to day. For though the tribulation is momentary and light, it works out for us a glory that is of more and more surpassing weight and is everlasting; while we keep our eyes, not on the things seen, but on the things unseen. For the things seen are temporary, but the things unseen are everlasting.” 2 Cor 4:16-18
With Love… Bambi, Erich, Ryan & Jordan
As we know, Jehovah is near to those broken in heart and crushed in spirit. He gives strength and power to the frail ones, even if they are frail only for a little while, as in your case Erin. I will say prayers to Jehovah for your whole family. Looking forward to seeing your beautiful family again sometime in the near future.
Love,
Annie
My favorite scripture right now is Isa 40:29 Jehovah is giving the tired one power; and to the one without dynamic energy he makes full might abound. You got this and you have that power! We are sending you all love. You are in our thoughts and prayers constantly!

Erin, Keep up that fighting spirit! We are all praying for you and your family and will continue to. (Philippians 4:6, 7) . . .Do not be anxious over anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication along with thanksgiving let YOUR petitions be made known to God; and the peace of God that excels all thought will guard YOUR hearts and YOUR mental powers by means of Christ Jesus.
much love to you!

Be strong my sister. You have a ton of thoughts & prayers directed your way, including ours..Know that Jehovah sees you and will give you the comfort and strength you need. (Your family pics are beautiful!!) Much love, Josh Michelle, Azarah & Luke Galaz
What a wonderful example you continue to demonstrate to your daughters, that of a courageous, faithful servant of Jehovah and in this, your Brothers and Sisters all stand next to you in this time of great challenge, feeling completely confident that Jehovah has grasped your hand, gently but firmly, guiding and protecting your way. Please remember that courage is defined as “Not deterred by danger or pain; brave” and continuing forward in spite of your fears. By your being persistent in a steady course of a positive mind and spirit – soon this trial will be but a vague memory as we shall all have a grand celebration when you are victorious against this foe. A continuous stream of prayers and love for each of your precious family until you return to our congregation and requests for you to have the peace that excels all thought and power beyond what is normal. Much love, Deborah
My dear brother Gerrod, & sister Erin,
Please be assured of our love, hope and prayers (as well as the whole congregation) for you and your beautiful family as you fight through this horrible ordeal.
My prayers everyday are for our Great, Loving God Jehovah to intervene, and see that you get the very best care & treatment that is available.
Please let me share some scriptures with you, ones that have been very helpful to Joanne & I over the years in getting us through some very difficult situations.
As you read these, please hear Jehovah’s words to you:
(Proverbs 15:29) 29 … the prayer of the righteous ones he hears.
(Isaiah 43:4) Owing to the fact that you (Erin) have been precious in my eyes, you have been considered honorable, and I myself have loved you
(2 Corinthians 1:3, 4) Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of tender mercies and the God of all comfort, 4 who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those in any sort of tribulation through the comfort with which we ourselves are being comforted by God.
(1 Corinthians 13:7-8) Love… bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 8 Love never fails.
Because of our great love for you Erin, we have hope!!!-
Love, kisses & hugs to you and your family.
We miss you so much. Larry & Joanne.
Dear Erin, Like all your brothers and sisters in the La Costa congregation, I have thoughts of you daily. It is fantastic to hear your confidence.

I am grateful to see your photos and will look for updates on your progress through this blog. Jesus said “have no fear: you are worth more than many sparrows”, so remember this and always know how valued you are. I have your entire family in my thoughts and prayers daily.

Dear Erin and Fam:
We are all right there with you! You have a larger support of love and thoughts and prayers than you can imagine. Hang in there. Rely on Jehovah. Let the friends and Jehovah carry you through this. Jehovah never leaves his loyal ones. We are cheering you and your family on. Jehovah will give you strength beyond what is normal.

Dear Erin~
I heard from my dear friend Julia K. about your situation. I am so sorry for your struggle and I will pray to Jehovah every day to give courage and strength in behalf of you, your family and friends during this time. Much christian love from Ulysses Kansas
Gerrod and Erin, it has been a long time, but if you remember, I financed your first home at Five Star Funding. I remember Gerrod, when you and Erin married and how happy you were to share the news. I have never forgotten the two of you, and how God brings people back together, it would be my own daughter and her family that fell in love with your home and purchased it last month. We all have been praying for you Erin. You are an inspiration.
Hi Erin,
Whitney told me about this site. It is so beautiful! What a wonderful way to reach out to all your friends and family. We will keep you and your family in our prayers. I’ve learned from life to take one day at a time. Jesus knew what he was saying when he said that each day has it’s own anxiety. All we can do is take hold of and cherish each moment and memory as we recieve it and thank Jehovah because it is a blessing from him. You have a beautiful family that we hope to become more and more entangled with. All our love and prayers are sent via cyberspace until we meet in person once again.
I got my t-shirt today!!!! I will have to post a pic on Facebook. I love you and think about you and your amazing little family everyday. XOXOXOXO
Erin, I thought of you a couple weeks ago when the congregation was reading Daniel 1-3. Despite how unrealistic and perhaps unfair the demand of the king was, Daniel asked for Jehovah’s help and he got it. So regardless of the demands this disease places on you, I know you and your friends, brothers and sisters continue to turn to and rely on Jehovah, just as Daniel did. Daniel 2.6 ”But if the dream and its interpretation YOU will show, gifts and a present and much dignity YOU will receive on my part. Therefore show me the very dream and its interpretation.” So Neb·u·chad·nez?zar not only wanted his dream interpreted, but for his servants to know what it was he dreamed, virtually mind-reading on their part. It seemed like a completely unreasonable and impossible demand. Yet with Jehovah’s help and because Daniel not only prayed, but asked his brothers to pray on his behalf for this specific thing, Daniel succeeded – against all odds. I am praying you too succeed against all odds. Agape!
My sweet baby!! I love you very much!! We want to thank everyone for their support and love. The comments on the site are so inspirational for us. Keep up the comments because it boosts our spirits and we love all of you! Thank you all for the kindness you all have shown!!!
Hey guys.. I can not imagion what you are going thru, but I do know how much you are loved and prayed for! And how loving Jehovah is, that someday soon He is going to take all of these such things away!.. I know He is giving you His Holy Spirit every moment thru this painful journey. I wish I could be there to help with the girls, or cooking and cleaning- anything really. You have been a constant prayer of mine! Stay strong, positive and pray for that peace of mind and heart that only Jehovah can give us.. So much love for u all!!

Keep relying on Jehovah. He will sustain you all through this fight. And at least we know. He will shortly take all these aweful pain and sickness away forever. So keep fighting. And let us know if there is anything we can do.

Hi Erin,
My name is Suzanne Hagen and I am friends with Jill Margiotta. I have been keeping tabs on your progress through her facebook account. I think you are amazing!

I would be more than happy to send you one! My prayers are with you and your family. I know Jehovah is looking over you because you are precious to him!
Stay strong,

That’s the first time I saw the “we got this video.” That is the most sad, funny and encouraging video I have ever seen. Your mom trying to get you to talk about the sunset and your reaction was so funny. Love you guys so much. La Costa congregation misses you guys too. Hope to see you soon.
My dear Gerrod & Erin. Being part of our family, and the love we have for you, our words cannot truly express the love and hope we have for you. We pray everyday requesting that you get the best treatment & care that is available and the doctors be supplied with the wisdom & desire they need. You look beautiful, Erin. Hope to see you soon and thanks for being the fighter that you are. We love you so much.
Larry & Joanne
Keep up the fight Erin! Please know that you, Gerry, Mia & Ava are in our prayers and we, along with so many others, are here cheering for you. Keep relying on Jehovah to supply you with the endurance that you need for the fight. We hope to see you back home soon.
Hello Erin,
One of the most enlightening things that can come out of a personal crisis is to learn about your core self…Especially how deeply you can love others.
Your capacity to love, come what may, is the mirror that reflects how beautiful you are to Jehovah and others. It has nothing to do with status or physicality.
From what “I see,” you are “so beautiful” and can be “proud of your capacity to love.”
Also as a “bonus of endurance,” you get to know who “loves you as YOU.”
Remember:
A multitude of prayers continue to be sent to Jehovah in your behalf.
*Everything will be alright in God’s due time.
Eccl. 3:1 “For everything there is an appointed time, even a time for ever affair under the heavens.”
Erin,
Just watched the new video of you. You are beautiful and strong, and my heart cries for everything you and your family are going through. I truly hope that you are able to beat this. I’m keeping you in my prayers and thoughts often. Until the day (soon!) when we can all be healthy and happy in a beautiful paradise, may Jehovah’s spirit keep you and your family strong…
Sincerely,
Rachel Schock (Fairbanks)
Hey there, we are so happy you are making progress. Keep standing firm and hold on tight to the real life…it helps you to continue to endure.

Love you all much – send love to your family-trishnbob

Hi Erin!!!
Don’t know if you remember me, but I’ve known from a baby! I have a pic of you and my son JJ sitting on a 25 cent horsey with me beside you both. Your mama was taking the pic. When I heard of your cancer, I thought to myself, hmmm….Well… she’s got a very stubborn mama and a just as stubborn dad (his down fall, lol) and many, many, many stubborn relatives which equals about 100 x’s more stubborn than most families!!! So I know “you got this Erin”!!! My prayers are truly with you along with many others. Lov ya girl!!
