Our Card - Tongue - Kiss - Balloon - Scriptures - Photo - Hospital Wall

From Brent:

We filled up an entire wall in the hospital with dozens and dozens of pictures, cards, gifts, Scriptures, notes, drawings and balloons.

I was sitting here trying to think of how to display this for you in a really cool way. It took me about an hour to figure out and test, but here ya go. This something that anyone can do if you watch a demo. Anyone want me to create one?

What you see in this picture is just what made it up to the room for this visit. We still have a bunch at home too. So if you don't see your pic or card, it's not because we don't have it, we just ran out of hospital wall for this visit. YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST! Abby has so much to keep her distracted, and the "love wall" really opened up doors for us to be an example to the hospital staff and other patients families.

The full image below is pretty big, so when you zoom in and out it may take a few seconds to load more of the image. Have fun: move the photo around, zoom in and out...

What a wonderful idea! Both the Love Wall and how to share it with us! I see the apples and foamies we sent made it! SO glad they enjoyed them!!!!!! I can't wait to show my 2 friends from high school that our tongue picture is on the wall (Ironically right under one of the apple crafts!) Sweet! Abby has the best parents ever! Prayers still going your way!

Just found your blog, and am praying for Abby! What a beautiful wall. I'm sure that makes her feel very loved and brings her cheer :)

We had so much fun reviewing the wall and even recognized a few kids from other blogs that we follow - what a great idea!

It looks like Abby started a fashion statement with her tongue. I love the idea, what an awesome wall!!

I'm starting to think that you have more hours in your day than I do...I don't know how you do it all.

Wow, that's really neat!

I can see it now, other kids in the hospital are going to hear about Abby's "Tongue Club" and are going to insist on having their tongues painted purple, too! Our little Sweetie has started a trend! =)

Wow, Abby must know she's loved!
Oh, and I would love to see another video of her. It's fun to hear her talk.

Does Abby know how much she has affected so many people's lives?

She is such a fighter, she inspires me daily. Praying for Abby always.

p.s. Love seeing all the beautiful (and handsome) children of God on Abby's wall

How cool is that? Hugs to Abby and many prayers.

I L-O-V-E the wall! That's quite a blog family you have, Riggs family! If you know of another child in need of some cheery wall decorations, would you let us know? My students really enjoyed sending Abby the cards and I'll bet a lot of your other blog family members would contribute too!

I love to hear good news about Abby... We will be praying for continued healing and praising God for bringing Abby this far and for sustaining the entire Riggs family.

Very NICE :) May all get the oppurtunity to stop in & SEE it and all walk away with brighter faith toward Jesus!
