...for a friend of mine who has Leukemia. He was diagnosed with it a year and a half ago and was undergoing treatment. Looked like he was going to pull through, in fact he looked great just 3 months ago. Things took a turn for the worse a couple of weeks ago. He'll be spending his remaining days at home with his family. Unfortunately he's too doped up on morphine to really tell who's around.

He'll be leaving behind an 8 y.o. son and a 10 y.o daughter along with his wife. I'd appreciate it if you all could keep him and his family in your prayers; they really need it

That is heartwrenching....I pray that everything works out for the best. Life can really suck sometimes. I have seen cancer take more people out of my life than I want to think about. It is a really scary illness. Take care all.

Thanks guys
Sheerdark, overall I'd say I've been fortunate. I could count on one hand the number of funerals I've had to go to for friends/family that have passed. Cancer is scary; quite sad how it can ravage the body.

Its hard to see someone you care about look like that and be in such pain.
Thanks Blade, I just read the news page. I appreciate the plug
