heart wrenchingly precious and they are SO more than welcome...i continue to pray, especially through the holiday weekend...so much to be thankful for, and so much yet to hope for in your family. Thank you for sharing with the world...
I couldn't stop crying...the Nielsons are strangers to us, but we have prayed for them for months as a family and community here in Seattle. What a beautiful video.
I feel like our thanks goes to you, because through this tragedy, our lives have changed, hearts softened (my husband is a non-member...this story has brought a miracle) and a testimony of the power of prayer.
We'll continue to pray...What a wonderful thoughtful video. We all have so much to be grateful for this holiday season. So good to see Mr.Nielson doing well and looking good. What a great man with an amazing family.
As I sat here with tears running down my face I felt like the thanks should be back to you and your family. Thru this tragedy I am forever changed. thank you!!!!
When we donate and keep you all in our prayers we do it out of the goodness of our hearts and with the utmost humility. I have never met your family and maybe one day we will meet. But this act has restored my faith in humanity. And although we all come from different backgrounds, religions, and countries. We came together to heal and to be uplifted everyday! through your words and NieNie's. The video was undoubtedly the best thing ever. Thank YOU! for allowing us into your lives. Because of you I am a better person.
WOW! I have been a Nie reader for about a year now, and have to say that this has had a profound impact on my life. I have been encouraged to live each day more fully and find myself thinking of the Nielson Family several times during the day - praying for their recovery and continued strength. How grateful I am for the Gospel and for the power of prayer and fasting. Thank you for posting such a touching video. I hope they can remember how much they are loved in the hard months ahead.
"THANK YOU!" You have taught me SO much through this whole ordeal! The Lord works in mysterious ways in this he has blessed every person who has been apart of it!
i had to stop the movie 2 seconds in because i know i'll be sobbing and i have to wait until the office clears out for lunch!! BUT I AM SO EXCITED!! :) from what i saw, christian looks GREAT!
I am overwhelmed. The thanks again goes back to all of your family. For your example of enduring love, faith, and happiness. I started reading stephanie's blog just a few weeks before the accident and was attached so quickly to the joy and love it shared. Endless prayers will continue to be said in your behalf. You are all truly inspiring. Thank you, Mr. Nielson for posting this video. Have a wonderful thanksgiving.
Thank you all for being such an inspiration and example of faith!! So glad to hear from Mr. Nielson and see how well he has progressed. Many continued prayers for all of your family, especially Stephanie.
Thank you for the beautiful video. You are amazing people. You all continue to inspire me to want to be a better person. Thank you. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Thank you for sharing that video! Thank you, Mr. Nielsen - even though you are strangers to me, I feel like I have experienced a small part of this tragedy with you, as I've followed along with your recovery. You are always in my prayers.
Christian - if only our prayers could take away the pain and suffering of loss and injury and bring you back to that day before the accident with enlightenment to the future.
I have faith that God has so much more in his plans for you and Stephanie - and for that I continue to pray to Him that healing will continue to come quickly so you can both return to your beautiful family.
Courtney - God Bless you. There are so many times I have wanted to praise you, but the words could not come out the way I wanted them to. You have made your sisters life stay in the forefront of our thoughts and prayers because you believed in the good of God and his people. YOU have made much of this happen.
I am not a frequent commenter - not because I didn't have anything to say, but more because I spent my time reading and praying. I know you felt those prayers, just as you have felt everyone elses!
I wish you all a very Happy and Thankful Thanksgiving. You have a lot to share praise for, and know that I will continue to pray for you all!
THANK YOU MR. NIELSON! We love you all and pray for you although we do not know you personally! Blessings to you this Thanksgiving! My husband is a pilot also and we are TOUCHED by your story, it hits SO CLOSE TO HOME!
Thank you so much for that. It was beyond humbling and such a wonderful gift in time for Thanksgiving. C Jane--thank you for your incredible example. You inspire me everyday. And if Mr. Nielson has a single brother around the age of 30, I would like to meet him :) I'm in Utah! What an incredible family you all are and how lucky you are to have each other. Thank you so much!
That was so moving and amazing. It makes me remember why our world is so great and why we are all blessed to be part of the human race. Bless you and Happy Thanksgiving to all!!!
INCREDIBLE! That was so awesome! Thank you for sharing that with us and we are just so happy for them and continue to pray for Stephanie, Mr. Nielson and the children, and all of you! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving. There truly is much to be thankful for!
Amazing, I have no words, I am crying. You have no idea the way your family has changed my life forever in a positive way. Thank YOU for all you have done for all of us.
Thank you so much for that video. It's so great to see Christian in such good shape! I'm sure the rest of the blogging community is with me when I say that your entire family will remain in our thoughts and prayers as the recovery continues. May you have the happiest of Thanksgivings.
Also, and this is just a tiny, silly thing: C Jane Enjoy It is my featured blog for Thanksgiving Week. http://www.Tamsinnorth.blogspot.com
Wow, what an amazing video and true testament of literally countless miracles. I continue to pray and think of all of you often. I KNOW that the Lord and Savior will continue to bless you and this miraculous family for eternity. You have all touched so many hearts, and you will never even know how many are truly blessed and inspired. Thank you. Christian's video made me cry, gave me chills, and just reassured to me of the love of our Father in Heaven. He watched over each and every one of us, ALWAYS. Thank you for sharing.
What an incredible way to begin this Thanksgiving weekend. Thank you for the reminder of what good can come of bad circumstances. You remain in my thoughts. I send wishes of strength, healing, love, and community.
wow! i cannot stop crying! I am so glad to see Mr. Nielson and my prayers continue to be with their family during their recovery! they truly are amazing people and we all have a little more to be thankful for this year!
It's funny because I feel like saying thank you to Christian and Stephanie. Thank you for giving all of us the chance to pray, serve, and give in your behalf. I am a better person because of your experience. And thank you Courtney for allowing us this little window to your world. I am a better mom because of you.
Just Amazing! You are all strangers to us, but through all of your efforts you have touched my life emensly. Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your lives.
The real thanks must go to you Courtney, your family and the Neilsons. You have all deeply and profoundly impacted my life in such a positive way. I am a better wife, mother and Christian!
I am so grateful to the Lord for the Neilson's recovery. The re-affirmation that anything is possible through prayer along with the renewed belief that people are fundamentally good has filled my heart.
~Thanks Mr. Neilson for making this video. It was moving and filled my eyes with happy tears.~
I will continue to pray everyday as I have since the accident.
God is good...God answers prayers. You BOTH are so inspirational. Continued prayers and thankful thoughts of you, Stephanie and your family this Thanksgiving and Holiday season. God Bless You!
All I can say is thank you!!! Nie Nie's blog and her positive attitude has been and continues to be an inspiration to me to be a better mother and wife. So we will continue to pray!!
What a great thanksgiving gift to hear Mr Nielson's message.
I was so overcome with emotion, Christian was like a blurred angel. I am trembling with utter gratitude that such a gift was bestowed onto us for Thanksgiving. Through Christian and Stephanie, you get to see the love and strength of God and I thank you ALL for sharing this with us. You all are a testament of miracles and pure love.
So incredibly moving. What a beautiful tribute and thank you. Definitely brought tears to my eyes. The whole time though I felt like I too wanted to say thank you. Your entire family has taught me so much about life and love. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family.
Thankyou Mr Nielson. I feel so privileged to have been able to learn about your life, your family and your faith. Much love for you all, and especially for Stephanie xxx
So beautiful. It brought tears to my eyes and it was beautifully set to one of my favorite hymns. It really sets the feeling for Thanksgiving. We each have so much to be grateful for in our own lives. Have a very happy thanksgiving.
Like many others, I sat with tears running down my face as I listened to Christian. I too do not know Christian and Stephanie or any of your families but feel like I do through your blog and those of other family members. I feel we should be thanking all of you for sharing your story, for keeping us updated and for bringing everyone together like this. I pray you all have a wonderful thanksgiving and continue to heal. God bless you all.
Thank you so much! Your family has become so important to me. Your faith in the midst of trials helped me through a very difficult and emotional time in my own life. I truly appreciate that you are willing to let me in and get to know you.
There is still a big ol huge lump in my throat. That was beautiful and very sweet of Mr. Nielson to do. Happy Thanksgiving sweet Nielson family. And, thank you for touching my life. I am forever changed.
Mr. Nielson...you now have a job to do. Become a blogger! And if typing is still difficult to do....I'm sure video suits all of us just fine!
Enjoy, which doesn't quite seem to be the right word...but with gratitude in our hearts...enjoyment and happiness is easier to come by, so enjoy this new journey with your family. Our prayers will always be with you.
thank you for sharing your beautiful family with us throughout this trial. I know you've strengthed my testimony as well as many others. May the lord continue to bless you and your wonderful family.
What a beautiful thing to do!! I couldn't stop crying. I wish I could say a personal thank you to your family and the Nielons. You've touched my life in so many way's, as you know you have touched others. You and your sister inspire me to be a better Latter Day Saint, a wife and a better mother. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU. And I hope you and yours have a lovely Thanksgiving!!!
With tears streaming down my face, this beautiful video - the music and the words - have immediately brought the spirit of Thanksgiving in my heart. I've had a difficult time finding it this year, and I am now so grateful and uplifted by this pure, sincere, powerful testimony. Thank you so much. May God continue to bless you and keep you. May you continue to feel the prayers and love of the world. Thank you for enduring this trial so that others, thousands - possibly millions - of others can feel the Spirit of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Happy Thanksgiving to the entire Nielson and Clark families (with lots of love and prayers)!
Courtney, may God continue to bless you and your sweet family. We pray for Stephanie and Christian everyday and are so incredibly thankful for the miracle of healing.
Thank you for sharing your family's lives and unwavering faith with all of us. So many hearts have been touched and changed through this story. We continue to pray daily for sweet Stephanie and her Mr. Nielson. Of course, we say our fair share of prayers for you too as you lovingly care for The Chief and your beautiful nieces and nephews! You have earned many diamond encrusted stars in your crown - and a very special place in Heaven. ;)
Christian's grace and beautiful spirit are as striking as Stephanie's. They are perfect for each other. Thank you Christian, for taking the time to do that. It was extremely touching. We love you too.
The video was so special - thank you for sharing it.
Cjane, I don't know you, Stephanie or Christian personally but somehow through your blogs I feel like I do know you. I have been completely inspired by Nienie and the way she lives her life. I think of you all each day and send my thoughts and prayers.
I am so touched by Christians beautiful thank you video. Happy Thanksgiving to the NIelsons and to you & your family courtney. I will be saying a prayer of THanksgiving for you guys tomorrow. God bless! tara
I had to choke back tears at work while watching this video. I am so thankful that I found Stephanie's blog and your blog. My life has been greatly enriched by it. Stephanie and Christian are always on my mind, and lately I find myself asking in any situation, how Stephanie would've handled it. Your family will continue to be in my prayers.
Oh, that made me cry! I'm still all teary eyed. I'm so glad to see Mr. Nielson looking so well. Thank you for sharing that.
Like many others, I've never met the Nielsons, but they're in my daily thoughts and prayers. It's amazing how many hearts - mine included - have been touched in the midst of this tragedy. Miracles CAN and DO happen when Saints band together in unity and love. My prayers are still with them, and I hope they have a wonderful Thanksgiving! I can't wait to read your holiday report, darling Mrs. Courtney Jane!
it is we who are truly blessed by being able to help in any small way. it was so great to see him looking well....may you all have a blessed thanksgiving.
Thank you for sharing that. Thank you for sharing everything you and your family have shared over the last few months. You did not have to do this. You have taught us all how to reach out and help each other. Thank you Christian for sharing your wife and your beautiful children with all of us. Thank you Nie and cjane for opening your hearts to all of us and showing us what family really means. And thank you to all of you for teaching us, by example, what true grace really is.
I have been forever changed by your story and have been praying every Sunday in church for the Nielsons. Thank you for keeping us updated, as I feel like an extended member of the family. Happy Thanksgiving.
Wow. I can't stop crying. They are an amazing family and our Heavenly Father has big plans for them. It is really remarkable how their has touched so many people all over the world.
Watching the Nielson and Clark families go through this trial while maintaining such grace, faith, wisdom and strength has been testimony building. So many hearts are being touched by what you have shared with us. And a special thanks to Courtney, blogger extraordinaire!
I love that they are making this tragedy into such a faith promoting, hope renewing reminder of our Heavenly Father and Savior's love for all of us. It serves as such a remarkable reminder to everyone that prayers can be answered in your own life in the same way----I love that this is touching so many people's life for good.
what a special treat!! christian is so strong, so humble and so gracious! thank you for such a beautiful tribute. I love the strength of the families testimonies. It is through Jesus Christ that we can conquer all. And I know Stephanie and Christian will continue to receive so many blessings and miracles along the way. The Lord has wonderful things for them. Stay strong and may the Lord be with you always. I am soo thankful for your love and testimony that has touched us all. thank you, diana, arizona
Truly a miracle. I can not even begin to express how much I have learned from your family. It's Truly a blessing. Thank You for sharing your lives, your love yourselves. My prayers will continue for you all. God Bless & Happy Thanksgiving.
Thank you Christian, and your entire family! I am grateful for finding these beautiful blogs, being able to keep up with your families and in turn your lives have enriched mine and those that I love more then you will ever know.
I am filled with gratitude for the blessings that Heavenly Father has poured out on this wonderfully sweet couple and their family.
Sometimes I am still in awe of the feeling of love that I have for a family that I have never met, but by being able to participate in this experience of praying for them and donating on their behalf, I've really come to understand what it means to be brothers and sisters in Christ.
(that was possibly the longest run-on sentence in the history of the world.)
Happy Thanksgiving to you Courtney! And to ALL of your wonderful family!!!
There has never been a time in my life where I have prayed so consistently & fervently for people I have never personally met, but Stephanie & Christian continue to be in my prayers. I feel blessed to be a minutely small part of their healing. Thank you, Christian for your gracious video.
WOW! He is amazing and so is Stephanie. I hope and pray for a good recovery for her. They are always in my thoughts and prayers. He looks great! Have a great Thanksgiving!
How wonderful it is to see and hear Christian! Please tell him how thankful WE are to know he and Stephanie are healing. Stephanie, Christian, you (Jane) and all of your family and extended family have moved so many people. I'm truly thankful to know you all, even if only through the internet. What an amazing gift from God you all are. Happiest of Thanksivings to you!
Oh Dearest Courtney Thank you for sharing the present with us. I couldn't imagine what awaited me when I went to NieNies' blog but as soon as I opened the blog I began to sob. What a glorious miracle we have witnessed . It has forever touched my heart. The tears I am drowning in now are for thankgiving and joy! I did not deserve a gift like becoming aware of your family, but God wanted me to meet you, and that is what I am most grateful and thankful for this Thanksgiving. What a blessing has been bestowed on me. I am so humbled. Thank you and all of you. Please give everyone a group hug form all of us, I mean there arte tons of us so you may have to hug forever, but I will let you do it just once so you can get on with your turkey dinner! I love you all, I mean...I really have love for you all. Isn't that strange. Heavenly Father is so good to us. I need to stop writing and put ice on my eyes...so untiol another day my prayers are with you and your family. Thanks again for the wonderful Tha nksgiving gift! ~donna
This is going to sound kind of weird bit it is so nice to hear Christian's voice. I never had thought about it before. Once again...those Nielson's are AMAZING. As this holiday approaches I would like to thank all of you for showing me how life can be. How honoring my husband is a privilege. How getting involved in someone elses tragedy is not a burden but a blessing. How just a little help goes a long way. I am thankful for all of you!!! Even though we have never met, this was an opportunity for God to teach me that you can love people you have never met. At the end of the day that is what it is all about...LOVE!
Thank you for your video so that those of us who have been following your story can see how much progress has been made and how well you are doing. I also thank you for one of my favorite hymns playing in the background. It sent me to iTunes where I believe I found it. I assume it's by the Morman Tabernacle choir? My church choir will be doing our own rendition of this tonight, perhaps not quite as beautiful, but still fine in it's own way. I'll give thanks for your recovery as we sing it, and lift up prayers for more healing for the lovely NieNie I've come to know through the past months.
The video is so lovely and touching. I have to wonder though, will you (Christian)and Stephanie and Courtney..(and the whole family) ever understand how much you have given?
For those of us (like me) who quietly peek into your lives through these blogs, I have been given the chance to see strength and courage, like I have never witnessed before.
To have gone through so much, and to still be filled with so much faith and hope, you are all inspirations. For Christian & Stephanie and their fight to recover, and Courtney & Lucy and their families who are taking care of the children. You are all so amazing. I only hope you keep being told that, over and over. Thank you again for sharing your courageous stories. My prayers are with you and your families.
Know this...you and your family (particularly Stephanie...I've followed her blog for some time) have had a tremendous impact on my life. I was not a person of faith (since childhood) before having my little girl 11 months ago.
She went through a horrific battle with Bacterial Meningitis (we almost lost her a number of times) and has come through with some potentially seriously long-term issues. I started praying when she was ill, but reading Stephanie's blog has taught me so much about being a faithful parent and woman. Your family has brought me back to God. My little Katie will now also grow up knowing God. Thank you for touching our lives.
It is hard to share what is in my heart....it is I that have been blessed. To know that God works so completely in the lives of those who believe is an affirmation for living a life worthy of His love. I continue to pray for you all. Christian, please tell Stephanie that we love and care for her deeply. XXX Annelies
Just brought tears to my eyes. It was such a wonderful treat to get to see and hear Christian for the first time. I'm so glad to know they are feeling our love and prayers. They are strangers to me, but yet, somehow not. I have been sending up prayers from here in Germany since I found out in August. God bless.
My dear sweet cJane... wow. Way to treat us to something we've been so desperate to not only see for ourselves, but to drive us to tears of joy. The Nielsons have changed the way I live my life. I don't mean that lightly. They are true inspirations and have made me a better mother, wife, and woman. To hear the words right from Mr. Nielson, wow...it has moved me to absolute tears on this Thanksgiving Eve. We all have much to be thankful for, but unlike previous years, this year I have absolute strangers to be thankful for. In a year that has brought my family much strife, the Nielsons have been the inspiration I need to be better from the ground up. The fundamentals of my life have changed BECAUSE OF THEM. So to all of you...Christian, Nie, Courtney, Lizzy, Lucy, Page...and and all of the Clarks and Nielsons I am missing...thank YOU for allowing us into your lives. To learn from you. To pray for you.
OHHH! Thank you so much for sharing this...what a gift! And at such a beautiful time! To know that the journey is getting better for this beautiful family, to see Christian speak from his heart, when months ago there was so much unknown...just absolutely breathtaking!! THANK YOU!!!
I feel like I should be thanking you & your families (the Nielsons & the Clarks). Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your beautiful lives. I feel like you ALL, have blessed my life in so many ways. May the Lord continue to be with Stephanie, Christian, their beautiful children, and all of their extended family.
Thank you for the wonderful message and for the blessings we have all received thru your examples and the strength you have all shown to us as we view into your lives.
Thank you - how wonderful to see and hear Christian! I feel like my *help* was so small - this is so much bigger than I can imagine. It is amazing to see the power of so many small people put together. Thank you again.
...weeping... ...for joy ...for pain ...for community ...for love ...for courage ...for family ...for life
Dearest friends, please know that thanks will be given for your presence on this earth at so many Thanksgiving meals tomorrow. Each of you, Stephanie, Christian, Claire, Jane, Ollie and Gigs, Courtney, Chup and the Chief, Lucy and Ric and Page and all of your brothers and sisters and parents and children - you offer such brave, complete love that I know you are healing us all as you heal your dear ones. Thanks be to you, and great love in return.
it is 6am in Australia and the first thing I see this morning is MR Nielson on the video.. what a wonderful heartwarming way to start the day... It is wonderful to be (kind of) part of a modern day miracle.. it has restored many peoples faith I am sure... for that we are grateful
I think WE should be the one's saying thank you to the Nielson's. Their tragedy has taught us all so much and seeing your families pull together has set such a great example! May this be a happy Thanksgiving for you all!
Thank you for your words in that video...and there is no need to thank us, we are all truly grateful for you allowing us to be part of your lives. My prayers are with you and your beautiful family every night. Such inspiration, hope, and love- I have never witnessed anything like this. As I have said before, the miracles have just begun!
I am crying now! Your family is a stranger to me, but when I stumbled on your sister's blog just a few days after the accident I have checked in on your blog everyday. I just had to have my NieNie and C Jane fix. You have an extrordinary family. You are truly a special person. Seeing Mr. Nielson in that video is nothing short of a miracle. What a mighty God we have. I am wearing my Love of Nie tshirt today. I will continue to pray for you all especially Stephanie as she continues to heal. I want to thank you for sharing your family with us. I have learned so many lessons from your family. I have been forever changed by your family's journey. I hope you all have a wonderful and blessed Thanksgiving! Thank you for sharing!
c jane - thank you for always sharing so generously with us. Our thoughts and prayers continue to be with all of you. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving, there is much to be thankful for.
I've never commented but I've been reading yours and Stephanies blogs for months now - You've done an amazing thing and while it must be hard to allow the public into your private lives...I appreciate your updates (including the new thank you video) and to hear of your success. You and your family have been in my prayers...I only hope that if my sister ever needed me I could do as good of a job as you have!
How wonderful to see the results of so many good deeds. Please convey to Christian our thanks for showing us that there are still good people in this world. I feel blessed to be a follower of their story and feel a renewed faith in life from this whole experience. Thanks for sharing this with us. Happy Thanksgiving!
I feel like so many others....it is my thanks that go to you and your family for what you have shown us about the true healing power of prayer, and the miracle of God's blessings.
This made me cry, mostly out of awe of hearing the lovely Mr. Nielson speak and to hear the absolute humility in his voice. When we did our fundraiser, we did it to help. Never in a million years did I expect something in return, much less something this beautiful.
that was a beautiful video, christian. truly, we KNOW that God is real and alive and working in the hearts and souls and if we take the time to realize it...He is there. Your family realizes it, and for that you can find comfort and hope for a bright future.
i couldn't believe what i was seeing!!! thank you for that video, mr. nielsen!!! i never imagined that we would have direct contact this soon. :) you guys are amazing!
That was simply amazing. I have never posted, but have followed the story for so long. I had chills and can feel the sweet spirit in that video. They, along with all of you, are truly amazing people. You have risen to the challenge placed on your path and have done a marvelous job. Thank you for the video. I too feel like the thanks should go to your family as well. You have changed so many lives for the better! Continued prayers in the recovery of both of you
Thank You for the gift. It was a beautiful gift. We are so blessed to be a part of your life, because of you we have witnessed so many great things to be thankful for. Thanks for letting us in to watch. You are amazing. we are blessed.
Oh my.......I can hardly type. This story has changed my life. Thank you Christian, for talking to us....and thank you Courtney for keeping us all updated. I will continue to pray and send good healing thoughts. Much love, LisaJane
I got the chills watching Christians video! I felt like he was talking directly to me, even though I only played a small part in the fundraising efforts it seemed as though he was saying thank you straight to me. :)
Happy Thanksgiving Courtney! I am thankful this holiday season that nie nie and mr. nielson are close to their children.
my what a surprise that was.It was incredible to see Christian looking so well. I can now see for myself half of a beautiful pair. You as a family amaze me and for that i thank you all. Christian - stephanie your lovely wife can only thrive with the love and tenderness that pours from you. Her love letters to you were justly deserved , may your love story never end. Thank you Courtney all my love always karan
That was amazing and so exciting - to see Mr. Nielson and hear him and know that he is well. My prayers for Stephanie and for your whole family will continue. You all are one incredibly inspiring bunch.
What a blessing--once again--the Nielson's have been to me. Watching this video was a reminder to me of those things that are most important in life. Christian is wonderful for his kind words. He looks great and our prayers for Stephanie continue.
That was so beautiful. What an amazing blessing to see Mr Nielson looking so strong & healthy. It's so exciting to know that Stephanie is also on the recovery track.
Our thoughts & prayers are with all of you & yours.
Thank you for sharing. That was beautiful. Your family has done more in the last few months to teach me about gratitude for life, motherhood, the gospel, and the Savior, than I had learned in my 23 years previous. For that I will be forever grateful. Happy Thanksgiving!
Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful video. I have been following Nie Nie's story since I saw it on the Today Show, and I have checked her blog everyday since. You and your family have been so inspiring to me when I needed it most. I hope you have an amazing Thanksgiving, there is so much to be thankful for.
I will continue to keep Stephanie and Christian in my prayers.
Thank YOU for that beautiful video. Again with the tears running down my face! I too feel like I should be thanking your family this season. I have been blessed and changed by your family and continue to pray for Stephanie and her beautiful family.
Thank you for sharing this!! Their story has profoundly touched my life. They will continue to be in my prayers...I hope that you and your family have a beautiful Thanksgiving!
I have been following your recovery for sometime..it is a pleasure to see you in person..and to see that your recovery is going well..You bring tears to my eyes every time I read your and your families blog...It is a sincere pleasure to donate to your recovery fund...My hopes and dreams for you and Steph and your children is to have a long happy life with each other...May God Bless and keep you in his loving arms, and soon you can start a new chapter in your book of life...
Wow..........again!!! Thanks to Christian and Courney and the lovely videographer. I am not so sure I should be this involved in their world. At times I feel like a bit of a voyeur and yet I do care and I do so want to be here when Stephanie is reunited with her family and is able to talk to us again. It is after al a love story and we have had the happy ending...........but I want more. God id good indeed.
What an absolute treat! Although I think the "thanks" need to go both ways.
Thank all of you for making our gentler, more loving sides show themselves. This whole experience has done different things to different people, but for me it has made me re-evaluate what's really important in life, and to remember kindness - always kindness.
Tears poured down my cheeks as I watched the video and felt of Christian's love and amazing spirit. From what I have learned about Nie and Mr Nielson, this healtfelt message should not have surprised me, but it did. Thank you (all of you and your family) for sharing this deep, personal tradegy and inspiring, well, the world to be better, to love more, and most important to believe in miracles. I have so much love for your family and they are at the top of my list of things to be thankful for this year.
That just made me want to cry with joy! To see Christian there so full of life and with his and Stephanie's whole future ahead of them ...... it just reinforces the fact that miracles do happen.
Thank you. Their story has made a difference to people all around the world.
I couldn't stop crying.. we don't khown in person but we are brother' and sister's for the same Celestial father, i'm so gratefull the your kid's can have you and sthepanie again especialy for this season time, beautiful video and thank you for take the time to talk to us, have great holiday and we still pray for you and all your family.
Absolutely beautiful and heartwarming. Thank you to all of YOU who have inspired me and countless others by being examples, like Christian said, of TRUE Christians, of TRUE family, of TRUE love. Thank you, and God Bless!
Your family is all so amazing and I know I have grown from the strength and faith that your family has put foward during this hard time. You are great examples to everyone, world wide. Happy Thanksgiving!
That is the best and most heartfelt gift I have ever received and all I want to say is "THANK YOU"!! Christian, Stephanie and Courtney you have been such a blessing in my life and I am thankful for you all this Thanksgiving. I appreciate more than words being allowed to glimpse into your beautiful lives and be a witness to your miracles. I pray that you enjoy this holiday and upcoming season together. Know that there are thousand of us in blogland that will continue to pray for you all each and every day! Lee Anne
So touching! What a good man to be going through so much yet take the time to express gratitude to everyone. I deeply admire and respect them as a couple!
That was unbelieveable!!!! I loved it and I do believe that prayers are answered. I love our faith and testimony it gives to us that our Heavenly Father loves us and understands what we are going through!!!! We will continue to pray for them and keep their names and yours on the prayer rolls!!! Love you all loves and hugs Tifani Safford AZ
Thankyou Mr Nielson - you look just great!(you sound like a young G.A.) We pray for your dear, dear family daily. Our girls adore your girls from a far. With continued prayers and healing thoughts. Family A. in Australia
Ohh That Video!!! I don't know any of you but I feel so blessed that you are sharing this journey with us. What a beautiful testimony to faith, love and the power of prayers. Christian's words are so touching. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for reminding me to give thanks for what I have this season...family and friends..and to worry less about the things that don't matter. Amazing!
what an amazing video. my prayers are always going out to all of you. enjoy thanksgiving, your family has taught me that thankfulness should be in everything i experience...because every moment is a gift from God.
I felt so blessed to hear from Christian himself. Our thoughts and prayers our with all of you, every day. We wish the best for you all. May God continue blessing each and everyone of you.
Thank YOU, Christian (and c jane). What a testament you, Stephanie, and your family are to Jesus Christ and His promises. Prayer really does change things.
My best to you, Stephanie and your family for a joyous holiday season. I'm sending cyber hugs to both of you....
Oh dear...I'm speechless. I don't know any of you, will likely never meet any of you, but have been so touched by all of you...and to hear Mr. N speak has taken my breath away.
I am thankful for you sharing your special lives with us.
Nie and Christian may never know how many people are loving them from afar. God must have big plans for the both of them! Another reason to be thankful this year.
They have had such an impact on so many lives. My children have a better Mom because Nie inspires me! Thank YOU!
I am deeply grateful to you and your family for bringing us all along your journey. I live in New York and read about your sorrowful pain in the New York Times months ago. From that time, I have followed your stories day by day, and told many of my friends and family about you. Each day, I pray for NieNie and Christian, and was overjoyed to see him looking so well in this video. Thank you for your generosity of spirit, in your sharing.
Be sure to wish your family a very Happy Thanksgiving from your "blog" family..your story has changed each one of us for the better and for that we are thankful. The video was very touching :) ~The Alvarado's Bend,Oregon
Their recovery is gift enough. I was so happy to see it was Mr. Neilson speaking to us. Being Canadian, I have already had my Thanksgiving but am so very thankful that you can enjoy yours surrounded by your family and loved ones. Please wish Stephanie and Mr. Neilson a Happy Thanksgiving from one Canadian who is praying for them. Thank you cjane for all you do for them and all you share with us - the video was perfect.
Unbelievable. Simply beautiful. Through prayer, anything is possible. Thank you Mr. and Mrs. Nielson for continuing to be such inspirations, even in such trying times. Thank you.
Just when I thought I couldn't love this family anymore than I already do, my heart is overflowing with even more love!
Thank you, Christian and Stephanie, for such a beautiful message. You have opened the eyes of so many, to reveal so many things within all of us. You have inspired the world to be more kind and loving, but more importantly, how to give and take care of our neighbor, as the Lord commands us too.
I found your blog after the accident and I had to go back and read every blog entry from the very beginning on all of the blogs. I have been encouraged to be a better mother and wife by all of Stephanie's and CJane's amazing ideas and qualities. I pray for all of you and hope your recoveries continue to go well and that you will all be together again soon! Happy Thanksgiving!
Thank you for that remarkable video. My heart continues to be blessed by the faith of your family and we will continue to pray for your sweet sweet family!!
This is the best kind of situation where both those on the receiving and giving end are both uplifted and left better off. I know I speak for thousands of others who have had our lives changed for the better because of the story of your entire family.
I have been following your blog and the recovery of your sister and husband and I am praising God for HIS faithfulness in their healing process. Your brother in law was so very kind and generous to make that video in gratitude which further shows the incredible people they are. The Lord continue to bless each of you as you walk this journey together. with love, julia
I am one of the hundreds who you don't know and who has been following the progress of Nie Nie and Christian. I have to say that after watching Christian's video, my heart was full during this Thanksgiving holiday. I was so touched with his sentiments and he looked fabulous!
It has been an honor to keep the Nielsen's in my prayers and to fast for them. They are my brother and sister, after all! :)
Thank you, Courtney for your wonderful writing and for all of the updates that have warmed my heart!
Oh Wow. . .I'm in tears and I don't even know you. Well actually I may know you a few times removed because my cousin-in-law's cousin taught the 108 sun salutations for Stephanie at Inside the Bungalow. Did you follow that? You all are such an inspiration to so many people. I find myself thinking of Stephanie and your family as I lay in savasana during yoga and remembering Nie's words and Courtney's words. I find myself living life in a more meaningful and intentional way because of all of you. Truly so much positive has come from such a tragedy. Happy Thanksgiving to all of you. . .thank you for opening your hearts and blogs to strangers like me who have been deeply moved because of all of you.
Oh my, what a wonderful heartfelt thank you from a remarkable man!! Your family has been my prayers since the day of the accident. You will continue to be in my prayers forever more. Your experiences have changed me forever as well. May our Loving Heavenly Father continue to spill out his blessing upon you all.
Wow, that was such a fun surprise! A great Thanksgiving treat, indeed. Thank you for sharing your testimony and gratitude with all of us keeping tabs on your recovery. I'm working on another fundraiser to help out just a little bit more.
Thank him from all of us, that was such a special treat. It was PRICELESS!!! He looks great too! I can't stop crying! Hugs and Prayers from CA So much to be Thankful for, Happy Turkey Day to all of you!!!

heart wrenchingly precious and they are SO more than welcome...i continue to pray, especially through the holiday weekend...so much to be thankful for, and so much yet to hope for in your family. Thank you for sharing with the world...
I couldn't stop crying...the Nielsons are strangers to us, but we have prayed for them for months as a family and community here in Seattle. What a beautiful video.
I feel like our thanks goes to you, because through this tragedy, our lives have changed, hearts softened (my husband is a non-member...this story has brought a miracle) and a testimony of the power of prayer.
We'll continue to pray...What a wonderful thoughtful video. We all have so much to be grateful for this holiday season. So good to see Mr.Nielson doing well and looking good. What a great man with an amazing family.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your beautiful family.
As I sat here with tears running down my face I felt like the thanks should be back to you and your family. Thru this tragedy I am forever changed. thank you!!!!
When we donate and keep you all in our prayers we do it out of the goodness of our hearts and with the utmost humility. I have never met your family and maybe one day we will meet. But this act has restored my faith in humanity. And although we all come from different backgrounds, religions, and countries. We came together to heal and to be uplifted everyday! through your words and NieNie's.
The video was undoubtedly the best thing ever. Thank YOU! for allowing us into your lives.
Because of you I am a better person.
WOW! I have been a Nie reader for about a year now, and have to say that this has had a profound impact on my life. I have been encouraged to live each day more fully and find myself thinking of the Nielson Family several times during the day - praying for their recovery and continued strength. How grateful I am for the Gospel and for the power of prayer and fasting. Thank you for posting such a touching video. I hope they can remember how much they are loved in the hard months ahead.
"THANK YOU!" You have taught me SO much through this whole ordeal! The Lord works in mysterious ways in this he has blessed every person who has been apart of it!
i had to stop the movie 2 seconds in because i know i'll be sobbing and i have to wait until the office clears out for lunch!! BUT I AM SO EXCITED!! :)
from what i saw, christian looks GREAT!
You and your family have been in my prayers. I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
I am overwhelmed. The thanks again goes back to all of your family. For your example of enduring love, faith, and happiness. I started reading stephanie's blog just a few weeks before the accident and was attached so quickly to the joy and love it shared. Endless prayers will continue to be said in your behalf. You are all truly inspiring. Thank you, Mr. Nielson for posting this video. Have a wonderful thanksgiving.
Thank you all for being such an inspiration and example of faith!! So glad to hear from Mr. Nielson and see how well he has progressed. Many continued prayers for all of your family, especially Stephanie.
Thank you for the beautiful video. You are amazing people. You all continue to inspire me to want to be a better person. Thank you. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Thank you for sharing that video! Thank you, Mr. Nielsen - even though you are strangers to me, I feel like I have experienced a small part of this tragedy with you, as I've followed along with your recovery. You are always in my prayers.
Courtney and family, Happy Thanksgiving. Thank you for allowing all of us to share in Christian's special thank you. It brought tears to my eyes
Christian - if only our prayers could take away the pain and suffering of loss and injury and bring you back to that day before the accident with enlightenment to the future.
I have faith that God has so much more in his plans for you and Stephanie - and for that I continue to pray to Him that healing will continue to come quickly so you can both return to your beautiful family.
Courtney - God Bless you. There are so many times I have wanted to praise you, but the words could not come out the way I wanted them to. You have made your sisters life stay in the forefront of our thoughts and prayers because you believed in the good of God and his people. YOU have made much of this happen.
I am not a frequent commenter - not because I didn't have anything to say, but more because I spent my time reading and praying. I know you felt those prayers, just as you have felt everyone elses!
I wish you all a very Happy and Thankful Thanksgiving. You have a lot to share praise for, and know that I will continue to pray for you all!
Thank you all for sharing your story!
THANK YOU MR. NIELSON! We love you all and pray for you although we do not know you personally! Blessings to you this Thanksgiving!
My husband is a pilot also and we are TOUCHED by your story, it hits SO CLOSE TO HOME!
Thank you so much for that. It was beyond humbling and such a wonderful gift in time for Thanksgiving. C Jane--thank you for your incredible example. You inspire me everyday. And if Mr. Nielson has a single brother around the age of 30, I would like to meet him :) I'm in Utah! What an incredible family you all are and how lucky you are to have each other. Thank you so much!
That was so moving and amazing. It makes me remember why our world is so great and why we are all blessed to be part of the human race. Bless you and Happy Thanksgiving to all!!!
Stephanie seems to bring out the good in people and that video is so special. I wish them both continued recovery and a family filled holiday.
INCREDIBLE! That was so awesome! Thank you for sharing that with us and we are just so happy for them and continue to pray for Stephanie, Mr. Nielson and the children, and all of you! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving. There truly is much to be thankful for!
Amazing, I have no words, I am crying. You have no idea the way your family has changed my life forever in a positive way. Thank YOU for all you have done for all of us.
Thank you so much for that video. It's so great to see Christian in such good shape! I'm sure the rest of the blogging community is with me when I say that your entire family will remain in our thoughts and prayers as the recovery continues. May you have the happiest of Thanksgivings.
Also, and this is just a tiny, silly thing: C Jane Enjoy It is my featured blog for Thanksgiving Week. http://www.Tamsinnorth.blogspot.com
Christian, that was wonderful. Steve and I are so happy you are doing well, and we're just up the street if you need anything.
Wow, what an amazing video and true testament of literally countless miracles. I continue to pray and think of all of you often. I KNOW that the Lord and Savior will continue to bless you and this miraculous family for eternity. You have all touched so many hearts, and you will never even know how many are truly blessed and inspired. Thank you. Christian's video made me cry, gave me chills, and just reassured to me of the love of our Father in Heaven. He watched over each and every one of us, ALWAYS. Thank you for sharing.
What an incredible way to begin this Thanksgiving weekend. Thank you for the reminder of what good can come of bad circumstances. You remain in my thoughts. I send wishes of strength, healing, love, and community.
wow! i cannot stop crying! I am so glad to see Mr. Nielson and my prayers continue to be with their family during their recovery! they truly are amazing people and we all have a little more to be thankful for this year!
It's funny because I feel like saying thank you to Christian and Stephanie. Thank you for giving all of us the chance to pray, serve, and give in your behalf. I am a better person because of your experience. And thank you Courtney for allowing us this little window to your world. I am a better mom because of you.
-Alta
Just Amazing! You are all strangers to us, but through all of your efforts you have touched my life emensly. Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your lives.
The real thanks must go to you Courtney, your family and the Neilsons. You have all deeply and profoundly impacted my life in such a positive way. I am a better wife, mother and Christian!
I am so grateful to the Lord for the Neilson's recovery. The re-affirmation that anything is possible through prayer along with the renewed belief that people are fundamentally good has filled my heart.
~Thanks Mr. Neilson for making this video. It was moving and filled my eyes with happy tears.~
I will continue to pray everyday as I have since the accident.
Happy Thanksgiving!
God is good...God answers prayers. You BOTH are so inspirational. Continued prayers and thankful thoughts of you, Stephanie and your family this Thanksgiving and Holiday season. God Bless You!
All I can say is thank you!!! Nie Nie's blog and her positive attitude has been and continues to be an inspiration to me to be a better mother and wife. So we will continue to pray!!
What a great thanksgiving gift to hear Mr Nielson's message.
Muchisimas gracias!!
from Venezuela, Carolina.
What a beautiful sight!!!! thank you courtney thank you christian and thank you nie's neighbor!!!!!
I was so overcome with emotion, Christian was like a blurred angel. I am trembling with utter gratitude that such a gift was bestowed onto us for Thanksgiving. Through Christian and Stephanie, you get to see the love and strength of God and I thank you ALL for sharing this with us.
You all are a testament of miracles and pure love.
In faith and love,
Djuna
Mr. Nielson,
Thank you for all that you've done for so many. Both you and Stephanie are models of grace, virtue, and gratitude.
Blessings to you and your beautiful family.
So incredibly moving.
What a beautiful tribute and thank you.
Definitely brought tears to my eyes.
The whole time though I felt like I too wanted to say thank you.
Your entire family has taught me so much about life and love.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family.
Thank you. I will continue to pray. Your family is an inspiration.
What a beautiful video. Happy Thanksgiving to all of you!
Thankyou Mr Nielson.
I feel so privileged to have been able to learn about your life, your family and your faith.
Much love for you all, and especially for Stephanie xxx
(((((CRYING)))))
What a truly blessed Thanksgiving & CHRISTmas this will be!!!!!
Truly wonderful to have made that for all of us.
So beautiful. It brought tears to my eyes and it was beautifully set to one of my favorite hymns. It really sets the feeling for Thanksgiving. We each have so much to be grateful for in our own lives. Have a very happy thanksgiving.
What an amazing gift. Thank you Courtney and Christian. We are praying for you.
Like many others, I sat with tears running down my face as I listened to Christian. I too do not know Christian and Stephanie or any of your families but feel like I do through your blog and those of other family members. I feel we should be thanking all of you for sharing your story, for keeping us updated and for bringing everyone together like this. I pray you all have a wonderful thanksgiving and continue to heal. God bless you all.
Thank you so much! Your family has become so important to me. Your faith in the midst of trials helped me through a very difficult and emotional time in my own life. I truly appreciate that you are willing to let me in and get to know you.
There is still a big ol huge lump in my throat. That was beautiful and very sweet of Mr. Nielson to do. Happy Thanksgiving sweet Nielson family. And, thank you for touching my life. I am forever changed.
Mr. Nielson...you now have a job to do. Become a blogger! And if typing is still difficult to do....I'm sure video suits all of us just fine!
Enjoy, which doesn't quite seem to be the right word...but with gratitude in our hearts...enjoyment and happiness is easier to come by, so enjoy this new journey with your family. Our prayers will always be with you.
thank you for sharing your beautiful family with us throughout this trial. I know you've strengthed my testimony as well as many others. May the lord continue to bless you and your wonderful family.
Niagra Falls.
Happy Thanksgiving to you. We all have so much to be grateful for.
xoox
What a beautiful thing to do!! I couldn't stop crying. I wish I could say a personal thank you to your family and the Nielons. You've touched my life in so many way's, as you know you have touched others. You and your sister inspire me to be a better Latter Day Saint, a wife and a better mother. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU. And I hope you and yours have a lovely Thanksgiving!!!
With tears streaming down my face, this beautiful video - the music and the words - have immediately brought the spirit of Thanksgiving in my heart. I've had a difficult time finding it this year, and I am now so grateful and uplifted by this pure, sincere, powerful testimony. Thank you so much. May God continue to bless you and keep you. May you continue to feel the prayers and love of the world. Thank you for enduring this trial so that others, thousands - possibly millions - of others can feel the Spirit of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Happy Thanksgiving to the entire Nielson and Clark families (with lots of love and prayers)!
Courtney, may God continue to bless you and your sweet family. We pray for Stephanie and Christian everyday and are so incredibly thankful for the miracle of healing.
Thank you for sharing your family's lives and unwavering faith with all of us. So many hearts have been touched and changed through this story. We continue to pray daily for sweet Stephanie and her Mr. Nielson. Of course, we say our fair share of prayers for you too as you lovingly care for The Chief and your beautiful nieces and nephews! You have earned many diamond encrusted stars in your crown - and a very special place in Heaven. ;)
With much love and admiration,
Michelle Fuchs

Christian's grace and beautiful spirit are as striking as Stephanie's.
They are perfect for each other.
Thank you Christian, for taking the time to do that. It was extremely touching. We love you too.
Maggie May
I had to plug my speakers in to hear his words of faith and thanks. More tears of happiness for your family.
And thanks to you Miss CJane, you are an inspiration & a sister beyond measure.
PS, my word verification is "blest" and that's how I feel after reading your blog today.
The video was so special - thank you for sharing it.
Cjane, I don't know you, Stephanie or Christian personally but somehow through your blogs I feel like I do know you. I have been completely inspired by Nienie and the way she lives her life. I think of you all each day and send my thoughts and prayers.
Saskia x
Wow. What a powerful testament to God, love, and friends, both old and new. I will continue to keep all of you in my prayers. Happy Thanksgiving!

What a beautiful thought. I hope that you and yours have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
I had to choke back tears at work while watching this video. I am so thankful that I found Stephanie's blog and your blog. My life has been greatly enriched by it. Stephanie and Christian are always on my mind, and lately I find myself asking in any situation, how Stephanie would've handled it. Your family will continue to be in my prayers.
Oh, that made me cry! I'm still all teary eyed. I'm so glad to see Mr. Nielson looking so well. Thank you for sharing that.
Like many others, I've never met the Nielsons, but they're in my daily thoughts and prayers. It's amazing how many hearts - mine included - have been touched in the midst of this tragedy. Miracles CAN and DO happen when Saints band together in unity and love. My prayers are still with them, and I hope they have a wonderful Thanksgiving! I can't wait to read your holiday report, darling Mrs. Courtney Jane!
it is we who are truly blessed by being able to help in any small way. it was so great to see him looking well....may you all have a blessed thanksgiving.
Beautiful. Thank you.
This made me cry. We will continue the prayers at our house!
Thank you for sharing that. Thank you for sharing everything you and your family have shared over the last few months. You did not have to do this. You have taught us all how to reach out and help each other. Thank you Christian for sharing your wife and your beautiful children with all of us. Thank you Nie and cjane for opening your hearts to all of us and showing us what family really means. And thank you to all of you for teaching us, by example, what true grace really is.
I can't see the video....It's just a blank box. Has my computer blocked it or WHAT??
Please...some wonderful computer expert help me out!
I have been forever changed by your story and have been praying every Sunday in church for the Nielsons. Thank you for keeping us updated, as I feel like an extended member of the family. Happy Thanksgiving.
There are no words to describe my joy in watching this. The wonderful Mr. Nielson.
Thank you, Mr. Nielson. I've been re-affirmed in my faith again and again through you and your wonderful family.
God Bless You All.
Thank you for sharing. To Mr & Mrs Neilson....you are in my prayers daily. I wish you blessings always.
May God continue to bless you both.
Michele Coomer
Mr Nielson looks and sounds strong.
Thank you to The Nielson's for all they have given us, they will never know. God Bless us all... Everyone
Wow. I can't stop crying. They are an amazing family and our Heavenly Father has big plans for them. It is really remarkable how their has touched so many people all over the world.
I will continue to pray.
www.emilysmusings.com
that was a lovely video.
thanks so much for that.
i hope that both stephanie and christian know how many lives they have touched, and changed ... just by being them.
mine included. so thank you, thank you, thank you.
Watching the Nielson and Clark families go through this trial while maintaining such grace, faith, wisdom and strength has been testimony building. So many hearts are being touched by what you have shared with us. And a special thanks to Courtney, blogger extraordinaire!
I love that they are making this tragedy into such a faith promoting, hope renewing reminder of our Heavenly Father and Savior's love for all of us. It serves as such a remarkable reminder to everyone that prayers can be answered in your own life in the same way----I love that this is touching so many people's life for good.
That was so nice! Tears are abound. Have a great Thanksgiving :)
With Tears in my Eyes, What a Wonderful Family you are. Blessing each and every one of you. Have a Wonderful Thanksgiving. Jamier
What a great way to wake up this morning. To check your blog, go to NieNie and watch.
Thank you
That was beautiful.
My continued thoughts and prayers are with you, Stephanie, and your entire family.
what a special treat!! christian is so strong, so humble and so gracious! thank you for such a beautiful tribute. I love the strength of the families testimonies. It is through Jesus Christ that we can conquer all. And I know Stephanie and Christian will continue to receive so many blessings and miracles along the way. The Lord has wonderful things for them. Stay strong and may the Lord be with you always. I am soo thankful for your love and testimony that has touched us all.
thank you,
diana, arizona
Truly a miracle. I can not even begin to express how much I have learned from your family. It's Truly a blessing. Thank You for sharing your lives, your love yourselves. My prayers will continue for you all.
God Bless & Happy Thanksgiving.
Thank you Christian, and your entire family! I am grateful for finding these beautiful blogs, being able to keep up with your families and in turn your lives have enriched mine and those that I love more then you will ever know.
My family will continue to pray for yours!
Happy Thanksgiving!!
I am filled with gratitude for the blessings that Heavenly Father has poured out on this wonderfully sweet couple and their family.
Sometimes I am still in awe of the feeling of love that I have for a family that I have never met, but by being able to participate in this experience of praying for them and donating on their behalf, I've really come to understand what it means to be brothers and sisters in Christ.
(that was possibly the longest run-on sentence in the history of the world.)
Happy Thanksgiving to you Courtney! And to ALL of your wonderful family!!!
There has never been a time in my life where I have prayed so consistently & fervently for people I have never personally met, but Stephanie & Christian continue to be in my prayers. I feel blessed to be a minutely small part of their healing. Thank you, Christian for your gracious video.
WOW! He is amazing and so is Stephanie. I hope and pray for a good recovery for her. They are always in my thoughts and prayers. He looks great! Have a great Thanksgiving!
Tell Christian thank you, for letting his family touch my life and so many people around me. I am grateful for them.
Beautiful.
oh that was lovely! and i was surprised to hear an accent! thank YOU christian, you're an amazing man.
How wonderful it is to see and hear Christian! Please tell him how thankful WE are to know he and Stephanie are healing. Stephanie, Christian, you (Jane) and all of your family and extended family have moved so many people. I'm truly thankful to know you all, even if only through the internet. What an amazing gift from God you all are. Happiest of Thanksivings to you!
Oh Dearest Courtney Thank you for sharing the present with us. I couldn't imagine what awaited me when I went to NieNies' blog but as soon as I opened the blog I began to sob. What a glorious miracle we have witnessed . It has forever touched my heart. The tears I am drowning in now are for thankgiving and joy! I did not deserve a gift like becoming aware of your family, but God wanted me to meet you, and that is what I am most grateful and thankful for this Thanksgiving. What a blessing has been bestowed on me. I am so humbled. Thank you and all of you. Please give everyone a group hug form all of us, I mean there arte tons of us so you may have to hug forever, but I will let you do it just once so you can get on with your turkey dinner! I love you all, I mean...I really have love for you all. Isn't that strange. Heavenly Father is so good to us. I need to stop writing and put ice on my eyes...so untiol another day my prayers are with you and your family. Thanks again for the wonderful Tha nksgiving gift! ~donna
This is going to sound kind of weird bit it is so nice to hear Christian's voice. I never had thought about it before.
Once again...those Nielson's are AMAZING.
As this holiday approaches I would like to thank all of you for showing me how life can be. How honoring my husband is a privilege. How getting involved in someone elses tragedy is not a burden but a blessing. How just a little help goes a long way. I am thankful for all of you!!! Even though we have never met, this was an opportunity for God to teach me that you can love people you have never met. At the end of the day that is what it is all about...LOVE!
Thank you for your video so that those of us who have been following your story can see how much progress has been made and how well you are doing.
I also thank you for one of my favorite hymns playing in the background. It sent me to iTunes where I believe I found it. I assume it's by the Morman Tabernacle choir? My church choir will be doing our own rendition of this tonight, perhaps not quite as beautiful, but still fine in it's own way. I'll give thanks for your recovery as we sing it, and lift up prayers for more healing for the lovely NieNie I've come to know through the past months.
The video is so lovely and touching. I have to wonder though, will you (Christian)and Stephanie and Courtney..(and the whole family) ever understand how much you have given?
For those of us (like me) who quietly peek into your lives through these blogs, I have been given the chance to see strength and courage, like I have never witnessed before.
To have gone through so much, and to still be filled with so much faith and hope, you are all inspirations. For Christian & Stephanie and their fight to recover, and Courtney & Lucy and their families who are taking care of the children. You are all so amazing.
I only hope you keep being told that, over and over. Thank you again for sharing your courageous stories. My prayers are with you and your families.
No, thank YOU for sharing your story.
I'm often just a bitter cynic, but I have been touched.
Thanks to you all, for a great example of faith and love.
The video was an amazing gift. Thank you.
Know this...you and your family (particularly Stephanie...I've followed her blog for some time) have had a tremendous impact on my life. I was not a person of faith (since childhood) before having my little girl 11 months ago.
She went through a horrific battle with Bacterial Meningitis (we almost lost her a number of times) and has come through with some potentially seriously long-term issues. I started praying when she was ill, but reading Stephanie's blog has taught me so much about being a faithful parent and woman. Your family has brought me back to God. My little Katie will now also grow up knowing God. Thank you for touching our lives.
Kristine, Katie and the entire Lee family
leeleenews.blogspot.com
It is hard to share what is in my heart....it is I that have been blessed. To know that God works so completely in the lives of those who believe is an affirmation for living a life worthy of His love. I continue to pray for you all. Christian, please tell Stephanie that we love and care for her deeply. XXX Annelies
what a wonderful gift to all of us this thanksgiving!
wishing your entire family a blessed thanksgiving.
Just brought tears to my eyes. It was such a wonderful treat to get to see and hear Christian for the first time. I'm so glad to know they are feeling our love and prayers. They are strangers to me, but yet, somehow not. I have been sending up prayers from here in Germany since I found out in August. God bless.
Thank you so much.
I'm going to have to resist the urge to track your family down when I'm in Provo on Sunday! I just want to be near such grace and strength.
But I promise I'll restrain myself, since I've never met any of you before and that would be a wee bit strange.
My dear sweet cJane... wow. Way to treat us to something we've been so desperate to not only see for ourselves, but to drive us to tears of joy. The Nielsons have changed the way I live my life. I don't mean that lightly. They are true inspirations and have made me a better mother, wife, and woman. To hear the words right from Mr. Nielson, wow...it has moved me to absolute tears on this Thanksgiving Eve. We all have much to be thankful for, but unlike previous years, this year I have absolute strangers to be thankful for. In a year that has brought my family much strife, the Nielsons have been the inspiration I need to be better from the ground up. The fundamentals of my life have changed BECAUSE OF THEM. So to all of you...Christian, Nie, Courtney, Lizzy, Lucy, Page...and and all of the Clarks and Nielsons I am missing...thank YOU for allowing us into your lives. To learn from you. To pray for you.
Much love this holiday season...
OHHH! Thank you so much for sharing this...what a gift! And at such a beautiful time! To know that the journey is getting better for this beautiful family, to see Christian speak from his heart, when months ago there was so much unknown...just absolutely breathtaking!!
THANK YOU!!!
What a treat! Thanks for sharing.
Our prayers and faith continue.
I feel like I should be thanking you & your families (the Nielsons & the Clarks). Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your beautiful lives. I feel like you ALL, have blessed my life in so many ways. May the Lord continue to be with Stephanie, Christian, their beautiful children, and all of their extended family.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Thank you for the wonderful message and for the blessings we have all received thru your examples and the strength you have all shown to us as we view into your lives.
Thank you - how wonderful to see and hear Christian! I feel like my *help* was so small - this is so much bigger than I can imagine. It is amazing to see the power of so many small people put together. Thank you again.

Dearest friends, please know that thanks will be given for your presence on this earth at so many Thanksgiving meals tomorrow. Each of you, Stephanie, Christian, Claire, Jane, Ollie and Gigs, Courtney, Chup and the Chief, Lucy and Ric and Page and all of your brothers and sisters and parents and children - you offer such brave, complete love that I know you are healing us all as you heal your dear ones. Thanks be to you, and great love in return.

I join you in praising our Heavenly Father who can do exceeding abundantly beyond all that we ask or imagine!
And this Thanksgiving, I will join you in thanking our Heavenly Father for Mr. and Mrs. Nielson's continuing recovery.
Love to you all.
What a wonderful blessing!!!
it is 6am in Australia and the first thing I see this morning is MR Nielson on the video.. what a wonderful heartwarming way to start the day... It is wonderful to be (kind of) part of a modern day miracle.. it has restored many peoples faith I am sure... for that we are grateful
I think WE should be the one's saying thank you to the Nielson's. Their tragedy has taught us all so much and seeing your families pull together has set such a great example! May this be a happy Thanksgiving for you all!
Thank you for your words in that video...and there is no need to thank us, we are all truly grateful for you allowing us to be part of your lives. My prayers are with you and your beautiful family every night. Such inspiration, hope, and love- I have never witnessed anything like this. As I have said before, the miracles have just begun!
I'm so so SOOOOOOOO happy ... Thanks to you and to your family ...
That was such a thoughtful expression of thanks from Christian that wasn't even required...but graciously done. Truly awesome, and he looks wonderful.
So much to be thankful for! I hope you ALL have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
I am crying now! Your family is a stranger to me, but when I stumbled on your sister's blog just a few days after the accident I have checked in on your blog everyday. I just had to have my NieNie and C Jane fix. You have an extrordinary family. You are truly a special person. Seeing Mr. Nielson in that video is nothing short of a miracle. What a mighty God we have.
I am wearing my Love of Nie tshirt today. I will continue to pray for you all especially Stephanie as she continues to heal.
I want to thank you for sharing your family with us. I have learned so many lessons from your family. I have been forever changed by your family's journey.
I hope you all have a wonderful and blessed Thanksgiving!
Thank you for sharing!
c jane - thank you for always sharing so generously with us. Our thoughts and prayers continue to be with all of you. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving, there is much to be thankful for.
Well done, Christian...Katie
Truly a thankful Thanksgiving! Thank you Nielsen family et al.
Prayers and hugs to you and yours. Thanks for posting the video.
I've never commented but I've been reading yours and Stephanies blogs for months now - You've done an amazing thing and while it must be hard to allow the public into your private lives...I appreciate your updates (including the new thank you video) and to hear of your success. You and your family have been in my prayers...I only hope that if my sister ever needed me I could do as good of a job as you have!
Happy Thanksgiving!
What a special gift to us! Thank you, Christian. May you continue to feel of our Heavenly Father's love and hand in your lives.
How wonderful to see the results of so many good deeds. Please convey to Christian our thanks for showing us that there are still good people in this world. I feel blessed to be a follower of their story and feel a renewed faith in life from this whole experience. Thanks for sharing this with us. Happy Thanksgiving!
I feel like so many others....it is my thanks that go to you and your family for what you have shown us about the true healing power of prayer, and the miracle of God's blessings.
My prayers continue to be with you all.
This made me cry, mostly out of awe of hearing the lovely Mr. Nielson speak and to hear the absolute humility in his voice. When we did our fundraiser, we did it to help. Never in a million years did I expect something in return, much less something this beautiful.
We continue to pray for you all!
that was a beautiful video, christian. truly, we KNOW that God is real and alive and working in the hearts and souls and if we take the time to realize it...He is there. Your family realizes it, and for that you can find comfort and hope for a bright future.
We love you all!!!
Beautiful...amazing...miraculous.
As I cry I continue to pray for your sister's recovery. Thank you for sharing your family, your story and your sister's story.
Your sister's example has made me want to be a better wife, mother, sister and friend.
i couldn't believe what i was seeing!!! thank you for that video, mr. nielsen!!! i never imagined that we would have direct contact this soon. :) you guys are amazing!
I have tears running down my face and I wish I could reach into my computer and give you all a hug. From my family to yours...HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
An amazing tribute to the strength of your family and what a family that is faithful to our Lord Jesus Christ can do.
Happy Thanksgiving to the Nie Nie family!
That was simply amazing. I have never posted, but have followed the story for so long. I had chills and can feel the sweet spirit in that video. They, along with all of you, are truly amazing people. You have risen to the challenge placed on your path and have done a marvelous job. Thank you for the video. I too feel like the thanks should go to your family as well. You have changed so many lives for the better! Continued prayers in the recovery of both of you
Thank You for the gift. It was a beautiful gift. We are so blessed to be a part of your life, because of you we have witnessed so many great things to be thankful for. Thanks for letting us in to watch. You are amazing. we are blessed.
Oh my.......I can hardly type. This story has changed my life. Thank you Christian, for talking to us....and thank you Courtney for keeping us all updated. I will continue to pray and send good healing thoughts.
Much love,
LisaJane
I got the chills watching Christians video! I felt like he was talking directly to me, even though I only played a small part in the fundraising efforts it seemed as though he was saying thank you straight to me. :)
Happy Thanksgiving Courtney! I am thankful this holiday season that nie nie and mr. nielson are close to their children.

What a blessing--once again--the Nielson's have been to me. Watching this video was a reminder to me of those things that are most important in life. Christian is wonderful for his kind words. He looks great and our prayers for Stephanie continue.
That was so beautiful. What an amazing blessing to see Mr Nielson looking so strong & healthy. It's so exciting to know that Stephanie is also on the recovery track.
Our thoughts & prayers are with all of you & yours.
Happy Thanksgiving to you as well!
Thank you for sharing. That was beautiful. Your family has done more in the last few months to teach me about gratitude for life, motherhood, the gospel, and the Savior, than I had learned in my 23 years previous. For that I will be forever grateful. Happy Thanksgiving!
Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful video. I have been following Nie Nie's story since I saw it on the Today Show, and I have checked her blog everyday since. You and your family have been so inspiring to me when I needed it most. I hope you have an amazing Thanksgiving, there is so much to be thankful for.
I will continue to keep Stephanie and Christian in my prayers.
That was very touching!
You are all in my daily prayers! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family!!!
I'm glad I watched that before logging off for the day. It will make my Thanksgiving tomorrow even more special!
No, thank YOU for reminding the world what it was like to love and be loved. Have a very Happy Thanksgiving.
What a wonderful video. Of course, tears were streaming as I watched it. Happy Thanksgiving to the entire family.
Thank YOU for that beautiful video. Again with the tears running down my face! I too feel like I should be thanking your family this season. I have been blessed and changed by your family and continue to pray for Stephanie and her beautiful family.
Thank you for sharing this!! Their story has profoundly touched my life. They will continue to be in my prayers...I hope that you and your family have a beautiful Thanksgiving!
I have been following your recovery for sometime..it is a pleasure to see you in person..and to see that your recovery is going well..You bring tears to my eyes every time I read your and your families blog...It is a sincere pleasure to donate to your recovery fund...My hopes and dreams for you and Steph and your children is to have a long happy life with each other...May God Bless and keep you in his loving arms, and soon you can start a new chapter in your book of life...
The gratitude is to you for sharing your families' stories.

Thank you! I do not personally know your family, but i am thankful for them and their story. Makes me want to be a better person. Happy Thanksgiving!
i have no words.... please tell Christian thank you for making that and that our prayers for all of you continue.
that was incredibly beautiful. gave me a good cry this morning. what special people you all are!
wow. thank you! so much to be thankful for.. thank you.
Wow..........again!!!
Thanks to Christian and Courney and the lovely videographer. I am not so sure I should be this involved in their world. At times I feel like a bit of a voyeur and yet I do care and I do so want to be here when Stephanie is reunited with her family and is able to talk to us again. It is after al a love story and we have had the happy ending...........but I want more.
God id good indeed.
What an absolute treat! Although I think the "thanks" need to go both ways.
Thank all of you for making our gentler, more loving sides show themselves. This whole experience has done different things to different people, but for me it has made me re-evaluate what's really important in life, and to remember kindness - always kindness.
Have a wonderful holiday!
Tears poured down my cheeks as I watched the video and felt of Christian's love and amazing spirit. From what I have learned about Nie and Mr Nielson, this healtfelt message should not have surprised me, but it did. Thank you (all of you and your family) for sharing this deep, personal tradegy and inspiring, well, the world to be better, to love more, and most important to believe in miracles. I have so much love for your family and they are at the top of my list of things to be thankful for this year.
That just made me want to cry with joy! To see Christian there so full of life and with his and Stephanie's whole future ahead of them ...... it just reinforces the fact that miracles do happen.
Thank you. Their story has made a difference to people all around the world.
I couldn't stop crying.. we don't khown in person but we are brother' and sister's for the same Celestial father, i'm so gratefull the your kid's can have you and sthepanie again especialy for this season time, beautiful video and thank you for take the time to talk to us, have great holiday and we still pray for you and all your family.

Absolutely beautiful and heartwarming. Thank you to all of YOU who have inspired me and countless others by being examples, like Christian said, of TRUE Christians, of TRUE family, of TRUE love. Thank you, and God Bless!
Your family is all so amazing and I know I have grown from the strength and faith that your family has put foward during this hard time. You are great examples to everyone, world wide. Happy Thanksgiving!
That is the best and most heartfelt gift I have ever received and all I want to say is "THANK YOU"!!

Wow.
Amazing (perfect choice of song too).
Thank you. Bless you.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Hearing "Mr. Neilson" speak has been one of the best reasons for Thanksgiving in recent memory.
May Heavenly Father continue to bless, comfort and heal these two amazing spirits!
Warm wishes and love from the cold North Atlantic are being sent their way.
Courtney: You and your kinfolk are amazing and truly epitomize the meaning of a Christian family.

Ohh That Video!!! I don't know any of you but I feel so blessed that you are sharing this journey with us. What a beautiful testimony to faith, love and the power of prayers. Christian's words are so touching. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for reminding me to give thanks for what I have this season...family and friends..and to worry less about the things that don't matter. Amazing!
what an amazing video. my prayers are always going out to all of you. enjoy thanksgiving, your family has taught me that thankfulness should be in everything i experience...because every moment is a gift from God.
may peace be with all of you.
I felt so blessed to hear from Christian himself. Our thoughts and prayers our with all of you, every day. We wish the best for you all. May God continue blessing each and everyone of you.
Thank YOU, Christian (and c jane). What a testament you, Stephanie, and your family are to Jesus Christ and His promises. Prayer really does change things.
My best to you, Stephanie and your family for a joyous holiday season. I'm sending cyber hugs to both of you....
Jan
Oh dear...I'm speechless. I don't know any of you, will likely never meet any of you, but have been so touched by all of you...and to hear Mr. N speak has taken my breath away.
I am thankful for you sharing your special lives with us.
((hugs)) from my little corner of Canada
guess I'm not THAT speechless after all...
Happy Thanksgiving to you all!
Thank you for being who you are and inspiring us around the world. You all have helped me be a better person.
I will see you in the temple on December 5th.
Nie and Christian may never know how many people are loving them from afar. God must have big plans for the both of them! Another reason to be thankful this year.
They have had such an impact on so many lives. My children have a better Mom because Nie inspires me! Thank YOU!
I am deeply grateful to you and your family for bringing us all along your journey. I live in New York and read about your sorrowful pain in the New York Times months ago. From that time, I have followed your stories day by day, and told many of my friends and family about you. Each day, I pray for NieNie and Christian, and was overjoyed to see him looking so well in this video. Thank you for your generosity of spirit, in your sharing.
Be sure to wish your family a very Happy Thanksgiving from your "blog" family..your story has changed each one of us for the better and for that we are thankful. The video was very touching :)

Thankyou so much Mr Nielson.
It is indeed a pleasure to hear your voice, and to hear your words, they brought streams of tears to me, even now as I type this.
I am honoured and touched to be so sonnected to the lives of good peopel such as yourselves.
Keep up the recovery, and the wonder of being. God is good.
Their recovery is gift enough. I was so happy to see it was Mr. Neilson speaking to us. Being Canadian, I have already had my Thanksgiving but am so very thankful that you can enjoy yours surrounded by your family and loved ones. Please wish Stephanie and Mr. Neilson a Happy Thanksgiving from one Canadian who is praying for them. Thank you cjane for all you do for them and all you share with us - the video was perfect.
Truly touching!
Happy Thanksgiving.
Jane
Unbelievable. Simply beautiful. Through prayer, anything is possible. Thank you Mr. and Mrs. Nielson for continuing to be such inspirations, even in such trying times. Thank you.
Christian, Stephanie, and the entire family,
Thank you. Your story, and particularly the love the your family has shown to each other, has been the source of great strength for me.
Happy Thanskgiving.
Just when I thought I couldn't love this family anymore than I already do, my heart is overflowing with even more love!
Thank you, Christian and Stephanie, for such a beautiful message. You have opened the eyes of so many, to reveal so many things within all of us. You have inspired the world to be more kind and loving, but more importantly, how to give and take care of our neighbor, as the Lord commands us too.
Loving and praying for you, still.
Janel
I found your blog after the accident and I had to go back and read every blog entry from the very beginning on all of the blogs. I have been encouraged to be a better mother and wife by all of Stephanie's and CJane's amazing ideas and qualities. I pray for all of you and hope your recoveries continue to go well and that you will all be together again soon! Happy Thanksgiving!
Thank you for that remarkable video. My heart continues to be blessed by the faith of your family and we will continue to pray for your sweet sweet family!!
Thank you for sharing that. Of course, I couldn't help crying. It is amazing to be so touched by strangers through the internet! Thanks again.
what a precious man
What's amazing is that I believe you are a blessing to us just as much as we may be to you. How grateful I am to know of your family. It's inspiring.
Thank you for the video. What a wonderful miracle to have been a part of, thank you letting us into your lives.
This is the best kind of situation where both those on the receiving and giving end are both uplifted and left better off. I know I speak for thousands of others who have had our lives changed for the better because of the story of your entire family.
Happy Thanksgiving!
I have been following your blog and the recovery of your sister and husband and I am praising God for HIS faithfulness in their healing process. Your brother in law was so very kind and generous to make that video in gratitude which further shows the incredible people they are.
The Lord continue to bless each of you as you walk this journey together.
with love,
julia
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! THAT WAS AWESOME. HAPPY TURKEY DAY!
ELIZABETH BEESLEY :)
I am one of the hundreds who you don't know and who has been following the progress of Nie Nie and Christian. I have to say that after watching Christian's video, my heart was full during this Thanksgiving holiday. I was so touched with his sentiments and he looked fabulous!
It has been an honor to keep the Nielsen's in my prayers and to fast for them. They are my brother and sister, after all! :)
Thank you, Courtney for your wonderful writing and for all of the updates that have warmed my heart!
Oh Wow. . .I'm in tears and I don't even know you. Well actually I may know you a few times removed because my cousin-in-law's cousin taught the 108 sun salutations for Stephanie at Inside the Bungalow. Did you follow that? You all are such an inspiration to so many people. I find myself thinking of Stephanie and your family as I lay in savasana during yoga and remembering Nie's words and Courtney's words. I find myself living life in a more meaningful and intentional way because of all of you. Truly so much positive has come from such a tragedy. Happy Thanksgiving to all of you. . .thank you for opening your hearts and blogs to strangers like me who have been deeply moved because of all of you.
Love and hugs from Charlotte, NC
It was so lovely to see Mr. Nielson! Thank you!
Oh my, what a wonderful heartfelt thank you from a remarkable man!! Your family has been my prayers since the day of the accident. You will continue to be in my prayers forever more. Your experiences have changed me forever as well. May our Loving Heavenly Father continue to spill out his blessing upon you all.
How wonderful to see Christian looking so well. Best Wishes to you all from my husband and I in the UK. X
What a wonderful video!
Wishing you and yours a lovely holiday full of continued blessings.
Loads of hugs on the way!
Thank you for sharing that. We will continue to pray for your family. Have a great Thanksgiving.
Wow, that was such a fun surprise! A great Thanksgiving treat, indeed. Thank you for sharing your testimony and gratitude with all of us keeping tabs on your recovery. I'm working on another fundraiser to help out just a little bit more.
Thank him from all of us, that was such a special treat. It was PRICELESS!!! He looks great too! I can't stop crying!
Hugs and Prayers from CA
So much to be Thankful for, Happy Turkey Day to all of you!!!
