We were just afforded the rare privilege of talking to Beej when he was awake enough to respond with a head shake. They are not allowing him to be awake, so it was so good for us. He told us he is not in any pain. We made him aware of the 1000's of you that are lifting him up to the foot of our Father. We got to encourage him and just love on him a bit. Lord we love you, and give you Praise for these few moments...haste the day when we will have more time to share of the many miracles You have performed in him.
We thank you for ministering to us so deeply.
They have taken him off of Heprin (blood thinner) while he is being tested for HIT, which is an acronym implying that his body starts bleeding with the introduction of Heprin to his system. They do not believe he has it, but need to make sure, before doing the surgery. He is off of the Cvvh (dialysis) while they are testing for this.
They have had to clear several clots from his canulas.
Please pray that he doesn't have HIT, and that he can undergo the surgery soon, and responds well, with no complications.

please continue to leave name, city, state, and country info if you would.

Lord, you knit BJ together and intimately know him. We ask that his blood be ready and you continue to heal him beyond our thoughts. We love you & praise you for all that you have done to sustain the whole Higgins family. Thank you for the short time of visiting - You know just what us mommy & daddies need. Thank you, Lord!
Continuing to pray!
It is great to hear that you got to talk to BJ for a minute. Just wanted to let you know that I'm still praying.

BJ will be in my prayers as will your family. As a parent who has had a child in intensive care, I know the pain you are going through. I also know the joy the Lord brough to your heart by getting to talk to BJ.

Heavenly Father,
Thank you so much for what you've done so far in this situation...it is truly incredible. Thank you for letting the Higgins talk to BJ and letting me be awake enough to respond a little. Please do not let him have HIT and please let the surgery happen soon. Please let there be no complications so that BJ can just rest and heal.
Amen

Thank you, Father, for the gift of communication..for the reassurance it brings. Please give the Higgins more special moments of communication with BJ.
Thank you, Father, for your mercy in keeping BJ pain-free through this healing time. Please cøntinue to meet each physical need, as it needs to be met.

Brent and Deanna--
So glad that you were able to share some "awake time" with BJ! We praise Him that BJ is not in pain. We are praying that these lucid moments will continue to increase in number as BJ's body adjusts to all of the changes.
"Father, I pray for BJ right now. I thank you for giving Brent, Deanna, and BJ precious time together this morning. Thank you for sustaining them with little "blessings" throughout the day.
Lord, I pray that you will continue to work in BJ's body and heal him. Father, we know that your timing for all things is perfect. Help us to remember that when we are challenged in our times of waiting.
As Brent and Deanna await the results of the HIT test and for the doctors to decide whether they will perform the canula surgery today, I pray that you would give them sustinance and patience. I also pray for negative results on the test, Father.
Thank you for BJ and for his life and ministry to so many. We praise you for what you are doing, and we can't wait to see what else you have in store. Thank you for loving us and for your daily provisions. We love you. Amen."
Hugs and kisses to all of you.
Lots of love,
Nate and Amy
Still praying hard for BJ!

I have been inspired in my faith as yours have been displayed. I heard of BJ's condition through a family member and have been praying and checking in daily to see how God is working. We know no matter what the end result, that God will use this for your good and His glory. May God keep you strong in Him during your waiting.

CARTA DE JESÚS PARA TI
Recuerda, Yo soy tu Dios… tu Señor… tu Creador… tu Salvador… tu Maestro… tu Hermano…tu Amigo… si crees en mí, vivo siempre contigo y te amo… ámame tal como tu eres ahora mismo… lo demás déjamelo a mí.
Conozco tu miseria, las aflicciones y tribulaciones de tu alma, la debilidad y enfermedad de tu cuerpo, lo mismo que tus pecados… y a pesar de todo Yo te digo: "Dame tu corazón, ámame tal como eres ahora"… si esperas a ser un ángel para amarme, no me amarás jamás. Aunque seas débil en la práctica del deber y de la virtud, y caigas nuevamente en los mismos pecados que no quisieras cometer, ¡ámame!, no te permito que no me ames y que no confíes en todo en mí… más bien es la razón de que confíes en todo momento en mí... Ámame tal como eres ahora mismo… y confía en mí
En todo instante, en cualquier situación en que te encuentres, en el fervor o en la tibieza, en la fidelidad o en la infidelidad, ámame como tu eres, confía en mi… Quiero el amor de tu corazón tal como estás, si esperas a ser perfecto, no me amarás jamás…
¡Qué!, ¿No podría Yo, acaso, hacer de cada grano de arena un serafín radiante de pureza, de nobleza y de amor?… ¿No soy Yo el Omnipotente, y no puedo preferir tu corazón al de aquellos posibles serafines perfectos?
Hijo mío, deja que te ame, quiero tu corazón, tal como es ahora mismo. Ciertamente quiero con el tiempo transformarte, pero, por ahora, te quiero como eres y deseo que tu hagas lo mismo. Quiero ver surgir del fondo de tu miseria el amor. Amo en ti hasta tu debilidad, amo tu amor pobre y miserable. Anhelo ardientemente que salga de lo más profundo de tu corazón un grito continuo: "Jesús, te amo"… ¡Jesús, confío en tí!.
Quiero únicamente el canto de amor de tu corazón, no necesito tu ciencia o tu talento. Una sola cosa me importa, el verte vivir amando.
No son tus virtudes las que quiero, si te las diese, eres tan débil, que alimentarías tu amor propio. Te podría haber destinado a cosas grandes, pero no serías siervo inútil, te amo aunque te creas poca cosa, porque te he hecho para el amor… para mi eres algo muy grande, aunque te veas tan humilde como Mi Madre.
Yo estoy siempre a la puerta de tu corazón, como un mendigo suplicante… ¡Yo, Rey de Reyes!… te busco y te espero, apúrate y ábreme. No alegues tu miseria… si conocieses perfectamente tu indigencia, morirías de dolor. Lo que más me heriría el corazón, sería verte dudar de mí y faltar a la fe, no confiar en mí.
Quiero que pienses y confíes en mí cada hora del día y de la noche, quiero que tu hagas, aun la acción más insignificante por mi amor.
Cuento contigo para que ames y así darme gloria. No te preocupes de no tener virtudes o muchos talentos, te daré los míos. Cuando tengas que sufrir, te daré mi fortaleza. Dame tu amor, y te enseñaré a amar más allá de lo nunca has soñado, ¡te daré mi amor!… pero, recuerda, ámame tal como eres ahora mismo.
Te he dado a Mi Madre, deja todo en su Corazón Purísimo, pase lo que pase. No esperes a ser Santo para abandonarte al Amor… anda… ámame como eres…
Yo estoy locamente enamorado de tí… te espero cada día hecho pan en la Eucaristía… déjate querer… ven a recibirme todos los días… y recuerda… ámame y confía en Mi, ahora mismo, tal como eres.
JESUS......
Dear God,
thank you for the gift of words and reassurance today that you have given the Higgins...We bow down to YOU alone for these moments.. We pray for the surgeons and medical staff, blood to be ready without clotting, and healing touch. Thank you for the pain free BJ ! we know it is the prayers of your believers. Halleluia, Amen. We love you and continue praying . the Scharbroughs
CONFÍA EN MÍ
żPor qué te agitas y confundes por los problemas que te trae la vida?
Déjame controlar todas tus cosas e irán tornándose mejores.
Cuando te entregues totalmente a mi, todas las cosas serán resueltas con tranquilidad, de acuerdo a mis planes.
No te frustres, no me ores como apresurándome, como si quisieras forzarme a realizar tus planes.
En lugar de eso, cierra los ojos de tu alma y con paz dime:
"JESÚS YO CONFÍO EN TI".
Trata de evitar esos pensamientos que te angustian al querer comprender las cosas que te pasan.
No arruines mis planes tratando de imponer tus ideas, déjame ser tu DIOS y actuar libremente en tu vida.
Entrégate a mi con completa confianza y deja tu futuro en mis manos.
Dime frecuentemente:
"JESÚS YO CONFÍO EN TI".
Lo que más te lastima es cuando tratas de razonarlo todo de acuerdo a tus pensamientos, e intentas resolver tus problemas a tu manera.
Cuando me digas:
"JESÚS YO CONFÍO EN TI",
no seas como el impaciente que le dice al Doctor: "cúreme", pero le sugiere la "mejor" forma de hacerlo.
Déjate curar por mis brazos divinos, no tengas miedo, Yo te amo.
Si ves que las cosas se vuelven peores o más complicadas, aún cuando tú estás orando; mantente confiado en mí, cierra los ojos de tu alma, y continúa diciendo a cada hora:
"JESÚS YO CONFÍO EN TI"
Necesito mis manos libres para poder manifestarte mis bendiciones.
No ates mis manos con tus absurdas preocupaciones.
Satanás quiere que te frustres, hacerte sentir triste, quitarte la paz.
Confía en mi, descansa en mi, entrégate a mi.
Yo hago milagros en la medida en que tú te abandonas a mi y de acuerdo a la fe que me tienes.
Así que no te preocupes, dame todas tus frustraciones y duerme en paz, y siempre dime:
"JESÚS YO CONFÍO EN TI",
y verás grandes milagros.
Te lo prometo con todo mi amor.
JESÚS
Our Lord loves to give good gifts.
My cousin told me of your son. She & her family go to your church. My 13 year old just came back from a mission trip to Mexico this summer. I cannot believe what you are all going through. Thank God that your faith is deeply in place! I'll pray for BeeJ & your family & I'll help spread the word.
Praise be to God!

My heart just aches and rejoices reading this update. To not be able to talk with your child and few precious moments when you do. I am awe of you all and encouraged by your testimonies.
Gods grace be with you.
Praying, praying, praying.
