Joined: Jan 2008 Posts: 179 | I would really like it if all of us could put our thoughts and prayers out there for Jim right now. His sister Carol called me this morning, and I was so saddened to hear of his state of being. I just know that he would feel our good vibes for him.

I know you have it within you to fight with everything you have . On occasion we all need a little boost from others. I believe that the thoughts and prayers of many are one of the reasons I was able to watch my son grow.
I pray with the best of my Irish prayers for you to beat this and for your family to keep the faith and be strong for you.
I will ask my cancer prayer group to pray for your well being.
As always, you are in my thoughts and prayers.
God speed.
