When the phone rang, I was ill prepared for the news.

Though I was glad to hear the voice on the other end of the conversation, her words have left me numb.

A dear friend of ours in Minnesota has cancer, sarcoma to be specific. He has a rather large tumor on his leg and apparently some metastasis in his lungs. They have an appointment with an oncologist tomorrow and chemotherapy is imminent. Chemo much harder than what I am experiencing.

I pray for them and ask that if you are one to pray to join me.
