Prayers

I don't ask for these, I'm not much of a religious man myself.

When I was home I got to meet one hell of a kid. 7 years old, and kicking brain cancers ass for 5. He was my girl friends best friend when they were in the hospital. His smile could out shine the sun, his laugh was a laugh that meant he appreciated it. He never took life for granted, his mom walked out when she found he was sick. Then a family adopted him for a paycheck. Never once visited him in the hospital.

Today, guys, that God damned disease finally bested the strongest kid I ever met. He passed away during an 8 hour surgery. Pray for the kid, and pray for my girlfriend. She was the only one there for him these past 5 years.

Here's to you, Daniel. Go have a child hood like you deserve, I wish I could have traded places with you, or show you the fire truck like I said I would. Thanks for what you taught me, kid.

Doesn't sound like he needs them and surely is in Heaven now, but done.

Sounds like you have a good one there. That's really tough. Prayers sent her way as well.

Damn. That's rough. One heck of an impact for a kid. It's a shame, think of what he could have done. Scratch that, just remember what he did

Soon as I swallow the lump I will start praying. God bless your girl for providing him some friendship. I can't handle thinking of sick kids. Ones who deserve it the least before they had a chance. I have pm'ed this to a couple guys here but my wife's mother is really into prayer chains and we will pass this on to her. Prayers for your girlfriend Dale, prayers to Daniel who is at gods side now. From the Ayers family and a hundred others by the morning.

Sorry to hear this Dale, but like Red said, sounds like he met you and your girl for a reason. To Daniel, from what it sounds like, one strong little dude.

From Matthew 25, beginning with verse 37-

37 “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’

40 “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’
