You sir, like your son and every member of your family, are a Hero.

I am afflicted with Leukemia, but it is the “best type you can have” according to my Doctor.

When I am at my Chemo sessions, seeing people young and old who have afflictions much worse than mine, I am always amazed that to a man or woman, nobody complains.

We talk, we laugh and we share stories. The line to the Newbies is, what are you in for?

Life is never easy or fair, but I know of no other place on the Earth I would rather be when dealing with my affliction.

When these “Compassionate Socialists” whine on and on about how terrible life in America is and how it needs to be “reformed”, my patience is tested beyond comprehension.

My prayers and thoughts are with you and your family.

I’ll say a prayer for you tonight, KC. You know how it really is, and how it ought to be.

Take heart. My father lived for 19 years with lymphoma. Leukemia is a disease that has many helpful treatments. I know many who have had very good results with Gleevec. I'm not sure if this is something that could help you but you might ask. Prayers up for your good health.
