Default OT: Please Keep My Family in Your Prayers

Hey all,

I haven't been too active with the board lately due to the start of college at the University of Vermont. I found out the unfortunate news about my mom's cancer, and how it came back after more than a year in remission. This could not have came at a worse time in our lives, but I am faithful that things will eventually get better and that someone is looking out for my family and I. Any prayers would be greatly appreciated. I will not be very active for a while. Thank you all.


UPDATE: she passed away today. I don't know why they do this to such beautiful families.
Sincerely,
Joshua

Stay positive, Josh. I, too, lost a parent (my father) to cancer. He had Stage 4 Mantle Cell Lymphoma and finally lost his battle after 10-months of fighting on August 30, 2015.

While the grieving process is fresh, my best advice is to spend the most time you can together or call when possible. My father was 58 and there isn't a day that goes by the I don't wish I had 1-more fishing trip together.

Remember that we must all make life's journey, but enjoy every lasting memory forever! Do not hold back any feelings while you two are together.

So sorry to read this. I actually met your mom and spoke to her for a few minutes at the East Coast National (two years ago?). Seeing the photo reminded me. A very sweet lady from what I could gather in that brief conversation... her being there supporting your hobby. Wishing the best for you in these tough times...
