@Mom26 - send prayers her way (for her son)

Okay BP family,

This is what family is about, even a virtual one;

@@Mom26 around her son and family....they need our prayers.

It doesn't matter what faith - just pray.

<3 The outpouring of love and support has brought tears to my eyes. I still cannot wrap my head around the fact that last Tuesday life was beautiful. And last Wednesday, our world was shattered. How the hell does your 28 year old son not only get rectal cancer - a cancer they pretty much only see in the elderly, but have it already at Stage 4 with 5 sizable lesions on his liver? How do you hear the words "incurable", "unfortunately", etc. and not just crumble? And how the hell do you deal with this 3 weeks post-op?

My heart is broken. Thank you for your support.

You certainly have my prayers. We just had this happen in our family too. It's stage 4 & terminal colon & liver cancer. I will pray for your son & Bill also. I will also ask my Bible study group to include your son in our prayers. My daughter came thru tyroid cancer & a friend of ours was stage 4 breast cancer & survived. There is always hope & I believe in the power of prayers.

It's just earth shattering when you're touched so personally. Prayers for your family as well.

Thoughts prayers and love being sent your way.

Hello I'm not very religious but know there must be something more out there . I'm also not very good with words. But felt the need to send you my wishes to you and your family. What a terrible time you are all going through life seems very unfair at time and no one can answer why this happening to your family.

I do know from experience it's best to talk and talk so if you need an ear to listen I'm happy 2 listen . Sending you inner strength at this time ... Keep strong

@@tracy amanda - thanks for chiming in :D

I just wanted you to know that I don't feel you have to be "very religious" to pray either.

That's why I closed the thread the way I did....just pray.

Its about asking OP, outside our virtual family, to add this brave young man to their prayers as well.
