The daughter of one of my closest friends has recently found out that the bone-marrow transplant didn’t get all of her leukemia. She’s 31 years old and has a two-year-old son. I’m not sure of her odds of long-term survival, but they’re very low.
Any prayers, rituals, good vibes, or whatever, that you can send her way will be greatly appreciated.
Whenever I start to feel alone and sorry for myself I am reminded of people who are in the same boat or worse off than me. These are truly humbling (sorry but I can’t think of the word). My ggod thoughts go out to this young lady, her son and all who are close to her. I wish them strength, good friends, and inner peace during this difficult time. You sound like someone they can lean on, Charlie. For that I know they will be forever grateful.
I didn’t mininterpret it, Cran – On the heels of your thread, I almost put in a tongue-in-cheek apology in my original request, but thought it might be misinterpreted. It’s a serious request, but that doesn’t mean we have to lose our senses of humor.
Thanks all for your thoughts and prayers – the only other time I posted something like this, my colleague made a miraculous recovery.
