My Mom was diagnosed with lung cancer , so i have been in and out of the Hospital with her for hospitalization stays and tests . My wife had a procedure on Thursday and while we were getting ready to go to the Hospital for her . I get a call from my youngest daughter (16) , that she was in a car accident on her way to high school ( in my pickup ) . My daughter fractured her hand along the bones to the small finger .

Jessi said she thought i would kill her for "destroying your truck " . She said she was suprised when i told her " i dont care about the truck im just very concerned for you " . once my heart got back to beating properly and i could breath a sigh of relief . I told her it will all be OK . Thats when she finally stopped sobbing .

The best part is my daughter is ok . She just cant drive , play sports , play her 2 instuments in band , take exams or work .
My wife is fine minor procedure .
My Mom is doing good mentally and physically depite her cancer .
and im still vertical and sane .

My pickup ???? needs the adjuster to look at it . hopefully they dont total it . Cant afford to buy new one .

I mention this cause you people have the power of prayer and i know you will . I thank you now from the bottom of my heart .

you a bunch of good blokes

I'm in... I have enough prayers being said for me that I have mine and extras to pass on. They are yours. One day at a time this too will pass.... I say to myself and anyone else who wants to listen. Blessings on the whole crew indeed.

not to hijack this thread but I feel your pain, my dad underwent his second bout of bladder cancer surgeryvthis past Monday, he also has chronic fatigue syndrome and bone leukemia, as of November 12 my mother in law has been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer.she has 12 tumors in her lungs,bladder cancer, uterine cancer, and other girl parts, it has been very tough for my wife and our two kids for the past 2 months it has been complete family mode for me.

Thank God for beer and Jack Daniels because I would have no way of seeing this easy for me to deal with what has been laid out before me.

Chris, you gonna be able to come to the TFCTFN? After everything that has happened over the last year, I agree with my brother in saying it would be nice to see you.

If not, maybe you can make the trip up to my neck of the woods in the summer and we can go out on the boat (maybe with Billy Mitz, too).

Glad your mom is on the mend.

Your Pal,
Rick

Chris, may God give you the strength to be strong for those who cannot, my thoughts and prayers are with you brother ...as well as everyone else with these serious life changers.

I too believe that Prayer works but it's the Faith behind the prayer that helps carry it through. In the end, it will be His will...I always pray that He will give me the courage and humility to deal with it when it knocks on my door. God Bless you all.


It's been and continues to be a tough 2015...I've attended 4 wakes in January alone, not one due to old age...very sad year so far.
