I have problems. I have issue at work. I have concerns about my kids. I worry about my oldest kids and their approach and way in life. I worry about supporting my family and our retirement. Then I see a little 5 year old boy that finds out after being treated for allergies he has an incurable brain cancer.
I will stress over the things I mentioned no doubt. Every now and then however, God says, “Everett, you don’t know crap. Shut up! “
Message received sir! This is me praying you step in and give this boy a life he can enjoy and not have to deal with sickness the whole time he is breathing and love the family he was given as well as touch that life waiting to be touched by his laughter and smile.
And on a side note, on the way out to Pennsylvania last month, we saw sign after sign about Sandusky, OH
and this was during all the crap with Penn State and Sandusky the coach, so we got tired of sseeing it. And wouldnt you know it, this boy is near Sandusky, TX. Just a stupid connection I made that means nothing but I draw attention to it for my own sake.
A quick post from his father on his facebook page nearly crippled me:
So just some interesting tidbits to share!
Fri 13 1982 I had open heart surgery, defied the odds that I wouldn't even make it out of surgery and 30 years later I'm still here!
Fri 13 2011 Brayden found out he had cancer and was given an average of 12 months to live. Given his last MRI results I don't think he's going with those predictions either!
Daddy loves you big guy:)
Now, I have to dry my tears and get back to work.
