Hi Ryan! How's it going brother? It looks like you're playing the part of Superman down there in California, I am absolutely in awe of how far you've come, you are such an inspiration to everyone who knows you dude! I have been meaning to try and make it down to California to come say hello, and I think it might happen soon because Tyler and Todd Smith are trying to organize a Sigma Nu reunion, how much fun would that be? :D Ok, well, know that I continue to pray for you and ask God to help you completely recover. Keep that infectious love in your heart, nothing can ever match the love you've always had for everyone around you.

Hi Ryan, I just wanted to come by and say hi and that you are continually in my prayers. I am so happy with the progress you are making. You have always been a hero to me, from high school when you were a friend to me and now when you are progressing through tremendous odds. Hope and faith shall carry us all.

Ryan and I go way back......4th grade. We had a crush on each other, and Ryan gave me heart earrings. We used to watch videos toghther afterschool( I lived by the Gants who watched him) Ryan was my first double date years later. I think back fondly on those years, and know that with faith, love and support...anything is possible. God Bless you all, and tell Ryan that Amber Quigley sends her love.

I am 14 years old and I am touched by your story. I went to the Dove Dash and saw you. I promise to pray for you everyday so you can make a FULL recovery. God Bless you Ryan.

God Bless You. I am praying for your full recovery...

Hey Ryan! It was so good seeing you out at the movies a few weeks ago. I have been keeping up with your website to see how you have been doing, but it was great to see you in person. :) It was wonderful to see the same wonderful spirit you had back in high school! You are in my thoughts and prayers and I look forward to reading about more progress in your recovery! Happy New Year!- Wendy (Campbell) Zakhar

Hi Ryan, Have a Happy New Year 2009. Praying for a your complete recovery.

Ryan - I always keep you in my prayers. Keep up the good work buddy, you're doing amazing work!

Hey, I just wanted to say that I love your fighting spirit and not giving up. I'm also waiting on the manifestation of healing from a spinal injury. I just felt like writing this to encourage you...you probably already know but the word for save in the new testament is the same word for "healed" (greek word sozo) Its in our salvation to be healed and Ryan has the same spirit that raised Jesus from the dead residing in him and it will give life to his mortal body. Abraham waited 25 yrs until the promise, Joseph waited 13 yrs in prison, its nothing more than a test and know that God can't lie. You might hear of other people who did not get healed but we can't put their experience over the word of God. His word can't be broken so be encouraged and know that just as sure as there is a wilderness there is a promise land.

the same hand that made the TBN Coat of arms logo is making Ryan a coat of arms logo with the face of a lion showing very strong in a shield i hope to reach u i the lords timing seek me out
