I posted a few months ago this same heading in regards to my Sister's husband getting diagnosed with Cancer. I find out yesterday that after all the Chemo treatments in Lexington and the Experimental treatments that were done at Vanderbilt University by the FDA that he now has less than 2 weeks to live. Really stinks to see a good Father, Husband and Provider get taken from this world at 37 years old. To leave my sister a widow and their 2 sons, both under the age of 12, without their Dad makes me question so many things about life in general. For those of you that do believe in the "So Called" man upstairs and on the SLIM chance that he even exists, I ask that you pray for my Sister, her 2 boys and my Brother-In Laws family to help them get thru this. I ask this on their behalf and not mine because my Sister asked me to have all that I know pray for them. I see the amount of prayer and hope that was put forth by them and their families that went un-answered and it stinks. Many here know my relationship with "Him" does not exist and the wedge had gotten deeper and deeper due to this and all that I have went thru with my surgeries the past few years. I know my Brother In Law and Sister are good people, church going people, good living people that don't deserve to go thru this. I would like to think that I am a fairly decent human being that loves my wife and 3 kids more than any other man on this planet could love his wife and kids but have went thru what I have had to the past several years. Certainly makes me wonder why Bad things happen to good people and that Religion and Church is the biggest CON going. Maybe Church and Religion gives people hope and that helps them thru, Maybe people think there is such a better life eternally after the short life we live on earth and that gets them thru, but me, I as far away from that as one human being can be. To go from being baptized in 1990, serve communion, give communion meditations, help with sunday school, vacation bible school, spend numerous hours at the church to help thru the week to where I am at 17 years later in my "belief" or lack there of I should say.
This may not be the correct forum to type this but I think I have gotten to know many of you on a personal level. My wife and I talked for over a hour last night and she is so far on the opposite end of the spectrum as I am that she wonders how we ever got together. She says she can only hope that one day I will take the same drive, determination and passion that I have for other things in life and put that towards the man upstairs. Me, I don't see that happening for I don't see any reason to and it is just a waste of time.
