Ally Heintz

I heard about you in a really round about way.. John Maicher's pastor came into the blood bank to donate blood in John's name and i started to post to him and through that avenue i found out about you all.
I just wanted to let you know you all are in my thoughts and prayers.. Don't give up and don't lose the faith..God will see you through.. You have been blessed with a very strong little girl and no matter the outcome you still have been blessed.Ally is destined for great things. God Bless you all and keep you strong..

When You Thought I Wasn't Looking
When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you hang up my first painting on the refrigerator, and I wanted to paint another one.
When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you make my favorite cake for me, and I knew that little things are special things.
When you thought I wasn't looking, I heard you say a prayer, and I believed there is a God I could always talk to.
When you thought I wasn't looking, I felt you kiss me goodnight, and I felt loved.
When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw that you cared, and I wanted to be everything that I could be.
When you thought I wasn't looking, I LOOKED....and wanted to say thanks for all the things I saw when you thought I wasn't looking.

Jill,
I'm sorry things are especially rough for you this week. It's tough to go through all you are going through and to have Shane so many miles away. You were (and still are!) such a great friend while Bryan was in Iraq. I'll continue to pray for you and the girls and know that we're here for you for ANYTHING you may need.
Love,
Sheila

Shane,
(I'm sorry that my last posting got cut off.)

You have every right to feel frustrated. You've been through so much! And, as parents (and particularly fathers), we want to be able to protect our families. But, as you know, there's a lot that we can't control. You are doing everything you can and everything right for your little girl and family.

Ally is an unbelievably brave girl for withstanding everything that has been throw at her. She's our hero!

Please know that we will keep you all in our prayers every day. Most especially, I will be asking our 14 year old hero (Andrew) in Heaven to watch over Ally.

Hang in there...as best you can.

Dear Jill and Shane,

We are praying for you all. As parents we can only imagine the heartache and tears the must come with it as you watch Ally laying in bed with all the tubes, etc. Please know that you have many, many people praying for Ally's recovery. You remain in our thoughts and prayers daily.

Thinking of all of you...

Lord God,
I lift up Ally and her parents to you at this very moment. I pray for wisdom, clarity & direction for all of the Doctor's and staff that are taking care of Ally. For her parents and family, I pray for strength, perseverance, peace, hope, and encouragement. I ask that TODAY be a day of change and breakthrough. That you would surround them with your prescence. Also that Ally would be in TOTAL comfort in the palm of your hand, which is where we know you have her. I ask that you would send someone to continue to help Jill and Shane to continue to LIFT THEIR HEAD up to you God. Father, I am STANDING IN FAITH AND AGREEMENT with them!!! I thank you and PRAISE you for your GRACE & MERCY ~ I ask that Jill & Shane can "feel" that from you God. In JESUS NAME.....YES & AMEN!!!

Shane,
You have every right to vent to "your audience." That's what we are here for - to hear your prayers and say them over and over again. Your entire family is amazing. Hold on to each other and hold on to God. I think I can speak for all of signers in this guest book when I say that the Heintz Family has come so far and there's no turning back. Stay strong, lean on all the loving people that are supporting you guys through every aspect of this journey. Stay strong and I pray that God blesses each and every one of you.

Again and again we pray to the Lord.

Thinking of you and praying for you, Ally!

I'll be praying for Ally. Praying for a speedy recovery and no more complications.
God bless.

Thinking of you guys and saying lots of prayers... Ally is going to be amazed when she looks back at all of this some day!

I am a family friend of Sheila (Brown) Little's. God bless you and your family. Please know that we are sending out positive energy and prayers your way.

Sincerely,
The Bridgeman-Curtin family.

St. Anthony
Saint of Miracles

O Holy St. Anthony Reach down from Heaven and take hold of Ally's Hand. Assure Ally that she is not alone. You are known to possess miraculous powers and to be ever ready to speak for those in trouble. Loving and gentle St. Anthony reach down from heaven Ally implores you and assist Ally in her hour of need. Obtain for Ally that her body will accept the new organs and that she will get feeling better. Dearest St. Anthony reach down from heaven and guide Ally with thy strength. Plead for Ally in her need and teach Ally to be humbly thankful as you were for all the bountiful blessings Ally is to receive. Amen.

I pray this prayer for Ally twice a day, hoping St. Anthony will give Ally strength with each new day.

We pray for all of you.

Well, isn't that just like Ally to give Mommy and Daddy the best Anniversary gift of all! Praise the Lord for giving Ally the gift of life and strength and fight! Prayers coming your way for one tiny step forward every day. Anyone that has ever met Ally knows she deserves all these prayers and more. God Bless you little one.

Jill - we last spoke back in April before the Donor walk. I have been following your updates ever since. Your family truly amazes and inspires me -- especially your little Ally. To be so strong at such a tender age. I was so excited to hear you had finally gotten the call for the transplant. And even though it means someone else's loss (as ours did)to know that their loved one will live on in Ally is the surest sign of hope I know. May God continue to bless you all and give you all the strength and courage to keep fighting. Take care.

Way to go Ally....keep up the good work. Everyone is so proud of you. Your mommy, daddy and sister are amazing. Our prayers continue to be with all of you. We miss you and are sending you cyber hugs until we can give you one in person.

((((HUGS))))

What a wonderful day! Thank God for all those answered prayers. They continue, and as Teri said, thank you for giving us the detailed requests to pray specifically. I'm looking forward to seeing Ally - and the rest of the family again - soon!

Happy Anniversary. So glad that Sunday was such a nice day for the Corvettes for Kids. It was good to see Shane and Ashley. You are always in our thoughts and prayers. Dillon has been praying extra hard because we have Bible School this week. He always says he will pray for Ally when we get to church. Love You Guys.

Hi Jill - Keep your head up! You guys are doing a fantastic job!! What a great event yesterday... It's amazing to see all of the support and love for Ally and your entire family! You guys are always in our prayers.

Hello Beautiful! I hope that you are feeling better today and starting to wake up a little bit. Even though I can't catch up on your progress every day, you are all in my thoughts and prayers. God will continue to watch over you and your mommy, daddy and big sis! Glad to hear that everyone is settling in at the apartment. Can't wait to see you all...the thought of that will make our trip a little bit easier :( Love you all much...

We continue to pray for Ally and your entire family. My family attended the Corvettes for Kids event, and as it turned out, my 2 children ended up working at the silent auction! They loved it, had so much fun and cannot stop talking about how many people came out to support Ally! I wasn't able to attend, but they brought home a purple bracelet for me, which I'm proudly wearing! Keep fighting Ally, you have so many people that never met you pulling for you! Sending many prayers! God Bless!!

I saw Ally's picture in the Mercury for COrvette's for Kids! I was so excited to ehar about the transplant. I looked at the ppictures and will be keeping Ally and all of you in my prayers. Take care!!

Thinking of you guys,
Be Well

Ally truly is the BRAVEST of all!!!!!!!! God Bless her and her entire family!
