DawgTalkers.net Forums DawgTalk Everything Else... Prayers if you can

My wife's nephew, all of about 30 years of age, has for the past several years been battling cancer. He seemed to be doing pretty good, saw him at Thanksgiving and he looked good.

Two days ago he complained of numbness and dizziness. He went to the hospital and they discovered that he was bleeding internally on the brain. Yesterday, he was life flighted to Cleveland. Now, there appears to be a mass as well.

With what little information I have things seem to be turning for the worse. If you get a moment to yourself, if you would say a prayer for him, his family (he has two very young kids, 9 &4) his wife and his mom.

I have been with my wife for twenty years so I watched him grow up and become a man and a husband and father. This is sudden

Thanks guys
i hate cancer

Absolutely.

Consider it done.

Yuppers.

Done.
That's too damn young

I will keep him in my prayers.

In my prayers !

Done and done. For him and for you and your loved ones.

Sorry to hear that man. Indeed, cancer does suck. It took my mother, several family members and various friends over the years, the last a good family friend last March.

I don't really pray for people to be healed. In my years I have come to know that God is going to do what God wants to do. Thy will be done.


My prayer is the best I can come up with in times like these....May your nephews soul and health be in Gods hands, and his families hearts be in His hands.

You got 'em.

That is really it. We seem to want to tether God to the limits and failings of our wisdom instead of tethering ours to his infinite wisdom and love.

Still, through prayer we come to know him better. We can ask for healing of a spiritual kind, of understanding and strength.


I just got word they removed a clementine sized tumor that ruptured. Clementine sized. They are 95 percent sure its cancerous. He has had several types of cancer in several spots. Groin. Remission. Lung. Remission. Now it looks like brain.

What is baffling me is that every week I hear of someone in their twentys or thirtys with cervical cancer or colon cancer or breast cancer. My wife has SEVERAL co -workers in their twentys that are dealing with cancer. They say we are getting better at diagnosing and screening but hell I think something is wrong man.

Maybe its the food we are eating. I see all these people downing them energy drinks like crazy and I think, man, in ten years these peoples' livers are going to explode.

Thanks all. You're good people.

He sounds like a fighter. Prayers on the way.

My heart goes out to this young man and his family.

I'd say you are way out of line with those comments in this thread.

Save them for a more appropriate time and place.

JMO, and I'll bet everybody else agrees.

Out of line ? Nope .
Inappropriate .. I can concede that .

Thoughts and prayers on the way for him and his family.

I'm very sad to hear this. I'm always especially sad when it's someone so young.

As my mom always says, parents should never outlive their children. And when you think about it in those terms it becomes even more sad.

I hope he can make it out of this.

blue...your wife's nephew and the family will be in our thoughts and prayers.
