Please know you, your family and all will be in my prayers.
One week before I got laid off, we found out my wife's mother had lung cancer... stage 4. She was one of the very best people I have ever known, would do anything for anyone, and absolutely did. She took care of all the elderly in her family, etc....
Yes, it is unfair... bad things do happen to good people. She lived 5 months, taking chemo. and radiation. The cancer had spread to her lymph nodes, her brain, liver, adrenal glands, and possibly her bones. She never gave up until the last couple of weeks.
Is there a supreme being, a force? I believe so. Having lost my job, and with my severence package, I was able to be with her (and my wife and father-in-law) everyday, for every Dr's appointment and treatment. Momma, as I called her, got to see really just how much she was loved. So you see, I do believe everything happens for a reason, and I do belive in my God. I believe there is only one God, and that we all pray to the same God, we just call our God by a different name.
If it is God's will, he will survive and if not... well you know.
I am so sorry your family has to go through this. I've gotten to know you on the board, and I do consider you a friend from the board. Someday I hope we meet and become real friends. For now, make sure you take care of your family. Nothing is more important than that. Family... they stand by you and stay with you through thick and thin.
I will remember you all in my prayers.
Tight lines and God Bless
Danny
