What are you waiting for?
A good friend of mine, who I met online and have stayed in contact with for years, IM'ed me this morning asking if I was religious. It was a little of an odd question, but then again I have odd friends. I told him I had my own views of religion and faith, but that I did not associate with any one organized religious belief system. He then asked me if I prayed and I do sometimes. I asked him why. Apparently his father has been diagnosed with cancer, Lymphoma to be exact. It nearly broke my heart to hear that. I would have given him a big comforting hug if he didn't live in Kansas lol. But I gave him what comfort I could through words and thoughts and will continue to do so as much as I can. I do know a little what he is going through. As odd as this may sound, I'm glad it's a disease that his father has a chance of getting rid of. Not many people are in the same boat.
My father has been diagnosed with MS, which is Multiple Sclerosis for those of you who don't know what that stands for. This disease has no cure and cannot be gotten rid of. Most people don't know of this, mainly because even though I love all of my friends on the fu, I do keep some of my personal life private.
Please just keep his father and mine in your thoughts and hopes, if not prayers.
Thank you.
