I can't belive how awesome you guys are with all you are going through you are still looking to help others. Everyday I read your site it shows how amazing you guys are and how many lives you have touched. I spoke with the blood drive people today and they are ready for all of Bryces support and if for some reason there is to much love ot go around tomarrow, there is another one on the 27th everyone can go show there love and support there also. We pray for you and your family daily.

Tammy,
I am so bummed that Mike and I won't be there for the blood drive. But we will be sure to go to ARUP when we get back. Sorry to hear that the MRI was bad. Today while we were at The Mirage they had a foutain called "The Fountain of Longevity" we instantly thought of Bryce and tried to bottle up some of the water to bring home for him. We even put the Bryce wristband on it and took a picture. You are always on our minds! Much love!
Teri

Oh Tammy I am so sorry to hear of the disappointing news. Doesn't mean we'll stop praying though. Please know that I care and continue to worry about you every day. Please take care of yourself too during this time as Bryce and Dani need you healthy. Hang in there.
Jamie

Hi Tammy and Bryce,

Gee. I'm in Miami. I guess I can't come to your blood drive. Hmmm...

Bryce...you'd laugh. I'm a wimp when it comes to needles. OY VAI! Keep up the fight my brother.

Tammy...I'd like to create a video of you and Bryce and Dani. Give me a call to discuss. Free of charge. Keeps me busy on these quiet Miami nights.

Reed

I hope the blood drive is a huge success! If I were closer, I'd be there -- blaze orange and all!
I'm sorry to hear the news of his last MRI. Melanoma is so sneaky.

I continue to pray for your whole family.

Godspeed...

sigh... I'm one of those people who desperately WANTS to give blood, but can't, for two reasons: 1) my grandmother died of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, and 2) I was in europe for more than 6 months in the 80's. Shooooot.

I am with you, BEGGING people who are able, to give blood! Please please do it on behalf of those who want to, but can't. PLEASE!!!

~Christy

You are so blessed to have an awesome family! Beautiful inside and out!!
I think and pray for you daily. Sing some primary songs..they are the BEST!!! Love!! The Charlesworth's

I am devastated for you, but I continue to send my well wishes your way. You two never cease to amaze me.

Lots of love,
Leslie

I have written it down in my planner. I will be at the drive tomorrow!

I am sad to hear the news about the MRI. I wish there were words that I could say that would offer you some comfort. Just know that we love you all and are here for you!

Susie

Bryce, Tammy, I'm very sorry to hear the results of the MRI. I've been following your progress, and hoping...

The gathering of your friends shows what a legacy you have Bryce. You've touched many lives, and you have people pulling for you from the ends of the earth.

With great love,

Todd Kelsey

I would go down to the blood bank right now and donate if I could...since the melanoma diagnois thats a no go!! I'm still pulling for you guys...I read about the new tumors in the brain, I'm sorry. Melanoma has no compassion. I'm still praying and still believe in miracles!!

Bryce & Tammy

I am so sorry to hear the results of the MRI.I know it must of been heart breaking nobody wants to hear that kind of news.I still have hope and faith for a miracle.Bryce please keep fighting hard.Tammy you have been a super hero to everyone be strong.Dani is so adorable I see so much of her daddy in her.I will continue to pray for your family and keep you close in my thoughts.

Bryce and Tammy,
What an incredible influence for good you are!! Such selfless love for each other, sweet Dani, and all humanity is so rarely seen. The Family Hands is so beautiful and a priceless gift...your friends are a treasure! Our family continues to proudly wear our wrist bands (I'm always getting asked about it...more support and prayers coming your way) and pray for your health and peace. Bryce, hang in there and keep laughing!

May the blood run freely today!! Donate!!
Love you Gobs! Shawnee, Dave and Youngsters

Hi Tammy and Bryce!

I have been keeping up to date on what is going on. Tammy you are definitely a miracle of a person. Bryce you always made me laugh the few times we got to hang out...usually at work parties.

I am going to try and make the blood drive today if not then definitely on the 27th. I am praying for you two!

Best-

Traci Millward

I am TERRIFIED to give blood (never done it before) but darn it--you HAD to double dog dare!! So Val and I are going today. Actually, I would've done it anyway--ANYTHING for you guys! Elder Gene R. Cook says that at times when we think we should just abandon our faith and give up hope because things look so bleak and hopeless--that is actually the time we should DOUBLE our faith. THAT is when miracles happen. So don't give up! Double your faith because it STILL ain't over 'til it's over!!! You guys are ROCK STARS!!! I love you both!

Amy

Dear Bryce and Tammy,
I'm not sure if my cough is a cold or asthma. I'm hoping I'll know by the 27th. You're in our prayers constantly and are now being prayed for by Saints in Guatemala City Guatemala and St. Louis Missouri.
All our love,
Marian and Sally

I have given blood a couple of times and at first it seems a little scary but the vampires just put you right at ease, and when I say vampires I mean phelbotimists. They are really nice and you can always think of that cookie and juice you get in the end. I wish I could go and help out.
We were sadned by the MRI results and are always praying for you and your beautiful family. We always are here for you and if you need anything please let us help.
I have a favorite sonnet by Shakespeare number 116 and have wanted to share it with you for a while.

Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments. Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove:
O no! it is an ever-fixed mark
That looks on tempests and is never shaken;
It is the star to every wandering bark,
Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.
Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle's compass come:
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
If this be error and upon me proved,
I never writ, nor no man ever loved.

The love you and Bryce have for each other is eternal and cancer will not change it. It takes a strong marriage and confident people to head together into something like this and not let it defeat you or your spirit. Stay strong.

Love Stacey M.

Wow!!!I'll be watching out for friends of Bryces and Tammys at my ward blood drive! Earlier may be less busy but I will be there with my camera for Bryce from 6-8.!!! Love to see any of you- Tracie Terrill

Tam- I can't believe the news on the new tumors. I also can't believe the strength you have to take an overwhelming situation and make some good come out of it. I will go on thursday to give up my blood but ONLY FOR BRYCE. I faint at the sight of stupid needles but, I will just have to keep my eyes closed. I would do anything to help you guys. Keep being strong. Heavenly Father is never going to leave your side through this. Love Jenny

Tammy and Bryce,
I heard of you through Christine (in Pa.). I wanted to let you know that you have been in my thoughts and prayers. I cried today when I got to your site and saw the plaster casts of your hands. I had planned to do that with my dad but didn't have the time before he passed away. Melanoma is a horrible, awful disease!! May God wrap you and your family in His arms and cradle you during this uncertain time.

I will be there. I really should give blood more often. Last time I went they said I had really high iron. I took that as a compliment!
I hadn't read the last few posts, I was catching up and went from laughs to tears. What a rollercoaster ride for all of you. People ask me everyday how Bryce is doing. You have so many supporters out there. You are a fighter. Keep up the fight. We are all behind you.
With much love,
brenda and lance

Tammy and Bryce,

I am ON MY WAY!! I am glad there is one tonight. May our blood help a patient spend more time with their family; even if it is just a moment longer....time is so precious.

Bryce, know that you are loved. And whether your time is meant to continue on the earth or in the heavens, your spirit has influenced so many people.

The more time I have spent with you I have felt such a gentle spirit. You have reminded me of the gentle spirit that President Hunter had. When I see you talk and feel the warmth radiating from you when you show appreciation to others around you, it is such a blessing to me. You can take literal strangers and make them feel right at home. I am so without that gift!

Okay, okay, I better go so I can give blood! :)

Love,
Barbara

I just gave blood, and guess what?! I BLEED ORANGE for Bryce! It was great. I actually like giving blood. Besides, it's an excuse to put off running for a few (5) hours! Stay strong and keep fighting. We'll keep praying.

Katie

I am so sorry to hear about Bryce's MRI results. God is still handing out miracles and I pray that one is reserved for your family.

I would love to donate blood, but with my health issues I'm not able to.

Okay, Tammy this one's for you!

I generally don't post twice, but I had the MOST TERRIFYING EXPERIENCE giving blood! I wasn't worried about the earlier posts because I'm not afraid of needles having been poked so much in the past. I had absolutely NO WORRIES!

..........until...................

they asked me my weight! There in front of them was my driver's license (15 or 20 pounds ago). I quickly gave my weight, but almost had a heart attack in the process! I gave my ACCURATE WEIGHT!! I don't remember the last time I did that! :)

When I was done with the painless procedure (the actual donation of blood), Tammy greeted me and told me that I had just lost half a pound! I wanted to go back to the interviewer and change my weight..... ;) I also wanted the problem of a would-be donor who didn't weight the required 110 pounds (and I think she is taller than me).

So, I figure, at half a pound each time I donate blood, in a few years, I'll be slim and trim...........

Seriously, my girls came with me and they got a great education on the process and can't wait till they're 16 (as long as they weigh 110...then again, at the rate they ate the snacks, that shouldn't be a problem!)

Thanks, Bryce for inspiring me to give blood. I should give it more often.... Double dare me again Tammy, but let me lose 5 pounds first ;)

Love,
Barbara

Tammy were you there tonight? I would have loved to see you. I left around 7:30 (and there were a lot of people waiting...all there for Bryce). It was quite amazing to all be donating with our hearts and minds focused on the same cause. Thanks for the nudging...unfortunately my blood dripped so slow, then stopped...maybe they can use my partially full bag for research purposes. Next time I am drinking a ton of water before I go! You two are wonderful and are influencing so many people.
love
brenda

Tammy,
Since they wouldn't take my blood because I didn't way enough, I WISH!Okay I guess I need to eat more fish before Thursday anyways, It was so nice to talk to you tonight,I hope I can be half as wonderful as you are. (when I grow up) I don't think we have talked much since the twin's blessing so I really enjoyed you. Sorry everyone if you felt like I was taking all her time. It was so neat to see so many wonderful people come support you guys tonight, and put some names with some faces. I hope we get that many on Thursay also. You have been so strong through this whole process, you amaze me. I wish you guys the best of luck tomarrow, you should have enough reading material for a few minutes at least. Remember that Dani is in GREAT hands and she know how much you guys love her and miss her. We continue to pray for you daily as you continue your journey.
