Please Pray For My Friend

[SCHEMESofNEON]

Rog, i will send thoughts and prayers ...i've experinced this all to well, as my father died from cancer ( lived with it for 13 years ) very troubled times, there were days I just wanted to run from it all- I remember the last talk with him just laying there in bed , I told him when he sees those angels to go tears were flowing from both our eyes- in the end i was relieved - but yet still curse the skys as it feels like something was just ripped from my hands -
and talk about LOST- which is hard to explain unless you've lost a parent only then will begin to understand

sorry for the long ramblings ......as I've seen to got off the track a bit

I don't think you can ramble enough when it comes to this disease...I too share in your grief and understand how helpless it makes you feel. I have a dear friend ...bare with me now...

Her Name is Tina and we met when we were 11. She and I bonded deeply despite our backgraounds being polar opposites. We grew up dreaming of marrying rock stars and how mnay children we would have. We went through every first in life together and wondered what is was going to be like to be old (hahaha in those days we though 40 was old) We just celebrated our 28th year of friendship and let me tell you the last 1 1/2 year almost tore us apart.
You see 3 years ago in Nov. Her 9 year old son was hospitalized with some mysterious affliction...long story short he was mis-diagonsed for 2 months and sent to another hospital out of state only to fine he had a very rare form of liver cancer. He was put on a transplant list and on the 14th of february a liver came though BUT when they opened him up he was so full of cancer that they gave the liver to someone else and sent him home to pass. They said it would take 3 0r 4 days...Little fart held on until the 1st day of March and died with so much Grace! He was only 10!!!!
Now its his Mom who needs the prayers...her marriage crumbled and her daughter moved in with Dad. Tina is now addicted to crack ( don't even know how it happened) and I have tried in vain to help her over the last year...I went months w/o speaking to her and now as we pick up the pieces I have given her an ultimatum. She has to see a Dr. and counselor and get off the drugs and deal with her loss by the end of next week or I will go outta my way to make things harder for her. She has come to far in life to lose it all now so Rog as I say a prayer for your friend and his family, please say one for mine!!!
I will uplift them in spirit and believe that Jim goes peacefully as DJ did!

I know how it feels, one of my best friends died of cancer 4 yrs ago, she was 25 ,she fought it for 2 yrs. I think about her everyday...i miss her like crazy [img]frown.gif[/img]

I'm trying to not dwell upon it as death, but a step to a better place, But no matter it still hurts knowing in just a short time, he will be gone from our earthly plane.

I just recieved the news that Jim passed away this morning. He was surrounded by his wife and children.

There is a sadness in my heart, but also a joy in knowing he is now in God's hands and no longer has to suffer the pain of the broken human shell.

I love you my brother...R.I.P. [img]graemlins/rose.gif[/img]
