A few years ago I created a book from my sister's blog using Blurb. It automatically pulled blogger into a book format. At that time, it was not able to pull the comments directly into the book (it may now); so I copied those from the blog to Word, formatted them, and then copied them into my book. I also added additional pictures. I was very happy with the quality of the book. <br /><br />HeidiHeidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05343229116293485526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6798852175614594549.post-20584617154824730752010-01-12T15:18:42.663-05:002010-01-12T15:18:42.663-05:00I have followed your story for a while now..came f...I have followed your story for a while now..came from Jonah's blog. My heart goes out to you and your family. I ran across this earlier & had to cut & paste it for you. It just touched my heart & instantly thought of you and Leah.<br /><br /><br />GOD'S LENT CHILD-<br /><br />I'll lend you for a little while a child of mine, God said. <br />For you to love him while he lives, and mourn for when he's dead. <br />It may be 3 months or seven years, or forty-two or three; <br />But will you, till I call him back, take care of him for me? <br /><br />He'll bring his charms to gladden you and should his stay be brief, <br />you'll have the lovely memories as solace for your grief. <br />I cannot promise he will stay, since all from earth return; <br />But there are lessons taught below I want this child to learn. <br /><br />I've searched the whole world over for teachers kind and true; <br />And from the throngs that crowd life's lane I have chosen YOU. <br />Now will you give him all your love? Nor think the labor vain? <br />Nor hate me should the angels call, to take this child back again? <br /><br />To which the parents did reply...Dear Lord, Thy will be done,<br /> for all the joys this child will bring, the risk of grief we'll run. <br />We will shelter him with tenderness, we'll love him while we may...<br />for all the love this child will bring, forever grateful we will stay. <br /><br />But should the angels call for him much sooner than we've planned, <br />we'll brave the bitter grief that comes and try to understand. <br /><br />~Author UnknownJennyhttp://mommax3-lovinlife.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6798852175614594549.post-51979011774272615652010-01-12T08:09:51.396-05:002010-01-12T08:09:51.396-05:00My dearest Meg:

I am Matt Williams' aunt by marriage, and of course EB is a cause very close to my heart. I literally SHOOK when I heard that Leah had passed away from Patrice, and I have had a hard time coming back to check in ever since. It's not because I haven't cared enough to do it ... just that it's been very difficult to do it. Please know that you remain in my prayers every day and that you have so many people thinking of you.Katherine @ Grass Stainshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01258123193553569060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6798852175614594549.post-83356491151332318092010-01-11T23:21:56.458-05:002010-01-11T23:21:56.458-05:00What a precious picture!

I came across your blog just last week and have thought and prayed for you daily. Leah was a very darling little girl and I too am thankful that your little angel is no longer in any pain. That must have been so much for her to endure and now so much pain for you to endure. You are an amazing woman and mother....your dedication, determination, love, guidance and patience show in every word that your write. <br />My thoughts are with you today, tomorrow and always! <br />Be well....<br />Lisa :)Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04374738421958775720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6798852175614594549.post-6355031267920168212010-01-11T22:26:28.419-05:002010-01-11T22:26:28.419-05:00When I was reading your post I came to the picture...When I was reading your post I came to the picture of you and Leah.

She was so very beautiful & I couldn't help but fall in love with her. You were a " Great Mother" & I could see the love i your eyes as well as in Leah's eyes the love ya'll had for each other as well as her looking like you. Leah is finally pain free as well as your "Guardian Angel". I hate EB & pray a cure is found for it. Thanks for keeping us informed we love ya'll too and will be praying for you & Jeff. My prayers, thoughts and love is with ya'll. Take care & God Bless.

I'm so sorry for your loss but so happy that Leah is now living pain free. I lost my Mom to cancer when I was 12, I'm 20 now, and the 18th of every month was always hard for me. She was born March 18th, and died September 18th. Since then it's just been September 18th that's been particularly hard for me but just this year, my Nephew was born on September 18th. I totally attribute this to my Mom (it wasn't his due date) and feel that she sent him to make the day better for me. I'm sure losing a child is just as hard if not harder than losing a parent and there are good days as well as bad but you'll notice Leah sending things your way and they'll help you get through the day. You got to have an amazing fighter with you and I'm sure what she prevailed through inspired many people. She's a gift from God. Keep your eyes open, she's still with you, taking care of you now and she'll never give up on you just like you never gave up on her.Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08499762320873780589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6798852175614594549.post-1563389794709889912010-01-11T15:40:08.608-05:002010-01-11T15:40:08.608-05:00My two difficult dates are the 6th and 18th.

EB, is a terrible disease (if that is a correct description) May God grant you the strength to get through this time. The true description of a Mother (in my opinion) is giving of one self, at this moment you are thinking that Leah is pain free,not of your own suffering. That makes you a TRUE MOTHER. Leah is lucky to have had you for her Mommy. <br /><br />Hugs,<br />From Atlantic Canada<br />LisaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
