Wow, cancer is such an awful thing. I know many people that have fought it and continue to live many years but others that fight as hard as they can and the cancer still wins in the end.
A lady that my mother has worked with for 9yrs. just found out yesterday that there is NOTHING else that can be done for her husband's cancer. He has a rare kind of stomach cancer that only 32 other people have ever been diagnosed with in the US. Hollie and her husband Allen have three beautiful girls that are in 9th, 8th, and 6th grade. The oldest daughter told her mother the other day that she was sad her daddy would never walk her down the aisle. The family has been out to M.D. Anderson to get different opinions and still the same that nothing can be done. I saw my mom yesterday and she just cried and cried. She, is having a really hard time with this because this in one of her best-friend's family going through this. Hollie and her oldest daughter catered mine and Michael's wedding. Hollie owned her own catering business many years ago and is an amazing cook.
The pre-school is raising money really quickly because Allen's wish is to go to Hawaii before he dies. I mean how sad to go someone knowing this is the last trip you will ever share together. I cannot even imagine what Hollie, and her children are thinking. I cannot even imagine knowing what Allen is thinking either. Just so sad.
If you are a praying person I know this family can use your prayers. I will keep everyone updated.
