The Benton Sisters

I was reading Trishonna Bentons's FB posts about her sister Emberly. I have been praying for Emberly and her family.

I noticed that Trishonna never mentions her husband and I wondered what happened to him. I know that the Benton sisters married the Blake brothers and that Emberly and Audrey go by Benton-Blake but not Trishonna, at least on FB. Does anyone know what happened to her husband?

Thank you for the update! I continue to pray for Emberly and her family.

However my question was about Trishonna's husband. She just never mentions him.

Ok, can anyone tell me if Trishonna Benton Blake lost her husband to death or to divorce?

What was her husband's name?

She says she's single on FaceBook.

Yes, I saw that. The Benton Sisters cookbook Vol III says in the Forward, "Each of us three sisters are now happily married to three brothers" so she married one of the Blake brothers, but as I mentioned earlier, she never mentions him in FB. I was just wondering what happened to him.

You are on Facebook now?

No, my daughter lets me look at hers! :)

Maybe his name was Vince but I'm not sure.

daylily · June 17, 2016, 04:42:03 PM

oops! I thought you were asking me.

No, I'm not. But I have a way to look at a bit of what's there.

Was his name Jared? The other brothers are Julius and Jason, and so maybe the third brother's name begins with J too.

I couldn't find any information out there. You could just contact Trishonna and ask her.

I think you are correct that his name is Vince.

Latest news about Emberly. She has had brain surgery. She will soon be in Norway to receive treatments from Dr. Arild Abrahamsen in Norway. My prayers are with her and her family. And that the LORD will guide Dr. A. in her treatment.

Any further updates???

From the Benton Sisters facebook page:

Thank you for all the prayers and support for our sister, Emberly. Apologies for not posting as often here on what's happening. Here's the latest. Emberly and Jason have been in Norway since early July where she's been getting treatments that were arranged by a family friend.
Jason recorded a video we wanted to share with you (below) where they both were able to enjoy a beautiful nature walk near where they are staying.
As to Emberly's condition and progress, the treatments have been having an effect on two areas for her. Some of you may know she was diagnosed with Lyme disease a while back and this has been a major health problem for her. The Doctor in Norway did some tests and found she had 8 strains of Lyme hosting inside her. Over the first few weeks of treatment these have completely disappeared. And we also heard from our mom last night that Emberly's cancer levels are now down to 12 from 137. However, her veins have been increasingly hard to access so she was not able to receive any treatments the last two days. In addition she has become very tired. When mom talked to Jason he told her the last time when he and Emberly were out on this walk she became so weak she was unable to make it back to the place where they are staying. So Jason had to go get the car. Some think maybe she's just tired from detoxing so much. We're not sure what to make of it though. This is a critical point for her now in her progress. Please continue to pray.
