There is alot of powerful faith on this board, so I want you all to help John.
John is 9 years old. A fantastic young man, full of spirit and joy. He's got the best outlook on life, and a very positive nature. He's a true inspiration. :bowdown:
John has Leukemia...
His courageous sister has donated marrow, but the docs are not as optomistic as they once were.
I met John last week at a bowling benefit for him. All the friends and family who obviously love him dearly raised
alot of money to help with his medical bills.
They had pictures of John's life so far. Truely touching!
One was of him with a fishing pole. That's what touched me the most! I intruduced myself to his dad and offered to take them both fishing. John and his dad need as much fun in their lives as possible right now. I'm really looking forward to having Jon catch a mess of shad this May.
As a dad, I pray every day my son never has to fight for his life like this. I wish no child ever did. :angel1:
PLEASE say prayers for John, that he and his family have the strength to fight, and that if all our prayers are answered, he can recover somehow, and grow up to take his own kids fishing. :angel:
Thanks much,
GBS

Brad,
I'm always amazed how much strength can be packed into such small bodies. I guess the spirit isn't confined by the size of the person, but by their heart and the community around them. We'll do our best to help Johns spirit stay strong tonight by making our starlight prayers with our little guys all about him.
Good job getting him, and his dad, out on the water. As a father of two little guys, I don't know how I would hold up during this kind of assault.

I will continue to pray for John; such a difficult trial for such a young man. Prayers for him and his loving family going to God’s throne.

I'm praying.

I have a friend whose son got leukemia at about age 8. It was a rough few years, but I think Luke is healed now. John will be healed I believe.

Seeing or hearing of a little one suffering is such a sad thing.Sue and I will include him in our prayers.
