A cancer victim has accused his sister of condemning him to death by refusing to donate her bone marrow for a life-saving operation.

A warning to boys everywhere .... treat your sisters nice or they won't give you their bone marrow.

Oh I know all about payback. When I was in high school my sister asked me for a cigarette before school and I told her no. I thought that was the end of it until next weekend when I came home at 3 AM and found 3 goats locked in my bedroom.

What kind of comment is that? What a horrible, cold, senseless thing to say. Shame.

I think that's a lesson we all could learn.

I know I already made two comments but this is my original thought albeit not exactly on the subject. Assuming this statement is true:

"Helen Pretty has declined to comment "We found a prayer in Rebecca’s coat which said: 'Please don’t let my daddy die from cancer'. That brought tears to my eyes." "

Some people make public prayers and that is fine but I think that when you uncover a private prayer you should not broadcast it around. Yes, this was supposedly written by a child but still I think that Helen Pretty should have just tucked the little prayer back in the kid's coat and left it alone. She should not tell about it and seemingly use it for emotional leverage. (stepping down from soapbox now)
