Cancer Angel......

My girlfriend, Donna, in California sent me an email this week with this beautiful little angel scattering red rose petals onto the water. The picture is beautiful by itself, however, the email itself is way more powerful and close to home......the email says "In memory of anyone you know that has been struck down by cancer or is still living with it."


This past week our family received news that Gary's cancer has spread to his liver. He will continue chemo and go back to doing acupuncture and Chinese medicine as well. He has a powerful will to live and does all he can to take care of himself. His next doctor's visit will be in two months to see whether or not the chemo he is doing right now will help. I ask for your prayers for not only him, but for our children. Although the news of this past week has knocked the wind out of all of us.....we know we have our Savior to comfort us and to remind us He is here and we need not be afraid as He loves us and gives us hope.

Cancer is so limited.
It cannot cripple love.
It cannot shatter hope.
I cannot corrode faith.
It cannot destroy peace.
It cannot kill friendship.
It cannot suppress memories.
It cannot silence courage.
It cannot invade the soul.
It cannot steal eternal life.
It cannot conquer the spirit.

Dear Heavenly Father, I pray for the cure of Cancer. Amen
