Prayers and cards

[Susan Vallee]

Hi Sowal!

I don't usually put such personal news out there ... but our nephew has been diagnosed with terminal bone cancer and has been given 6 months to live. He is 20 years old (My apologies to anyone who I told his age was 18 - apparently he stopped aging in my mind once our son was born.) His treatment options are radiation, interleukin and a homeopathic treatment that he just began.
He is on the prayer list at a few local churches and we are so grateful for that.

We just returned from Miami to visit with him. He underwent an extensive 6-hour surgery to remove a broken vertebra from his spine. As a result, he is in a huge neck brace for the next 6 weeks.
As you can imagine, radiation therapy is even less fun when you are recovering from spinal surgery.
His spirits are very low at the moment.

I thought that maybe when you are sending out your Christmas cards this year, if you have an extra in the bunch it would mean so much to his mom and to Joey to know that people are praying for him and thinking of him.

I appreciate everyone who has added him to their prayers and thoughts.

I quit sending Christmas cards over 15 years ago but Joey will get a special one from me. Prayers too.

Prayers and a card sent and prayers for you. It is very hard being close to someone terminally ill and not being to be there.

 

[Susan Vallee]

Thank you so much!
There is a reason Sowal is such a special place ... and it ain't just the pretty beaches!

Love to all.
