when bad things happen to good christian soldiers....

[slk2295]

I just found out a couple of hours ago that my cousin's cancer is back. <br>
<br>
His name is David. He's a strong Christian, and one of the sweetest people I know. He's in his early 30's, has a wife and two beautiful daughters. <br>
<br>
About 6 years ago he had Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, but was miraculously healed after the chemo didn't work. <br>
<br>
He is in the hospital tonight, starting 3 days of extremely intense chemo, but there are tumors all down his spine, his spleen is at least twice the normal size... he's in a lot of pain, and so is everyone in the family.<br>
<br>
Please pray for him and his little family. <p></p><i></i>

Every time I try and respond to this, I cry to much to type. You are a wonderful bunch of people. THANK YOU for your prayers.<br>

David is keeping in good spirits, all things considered. He had an extremly bad reaction to oxycodone that covered him in red splotches from the top of his forehead to every toe, I guess he looks like he has the measles and chicken pox at the same time. But he's smiling and laughing, and praising the Lord. He should be getting out of the hospital in a couple of days, but I think it will be a few days after that before we know whether the current round of chemo helped. <br>
<br>
I'm planning to go over to Spokane next weekend to see him, and wander around with my oldest Son while he says his Good Byes before leaving for Marine Boot Camp. <br>
<br>
I'll let you know when I know more.<br>
