I have so many things to be thankful for...so many blessings and a multitude of prayers that have been answered. I have wonderful family...both immediate and extended and friends. And, I count each blessing every day. But, even having said that, it was with a clutch in my throat and a pain in my heart that I watched Sean back out of the driveway this morning. I know he will be back but I don't think he will ever be the same.
Sean's diagnosis of throat cancer is really the topping on his list of health concerns. It seems so sad...like it's time to pay the piper. He has abused his body with drugs, alcohol and a raunchy life style for years. Then, he gets clean, stops smoking, gets a job, gets his degree and gets cancer. Why? I know better then to ask that question but I can still wonder.
And even sadder still is that he is technically alone. He isn't married, doesn't have children and is really only close to Mike and I. We will be there for him but it seems so a lonely way to be and such a solitary life.
I will say prayers for him and hope that his treatment will not be devastating but mostly that he can be treated and will survive.
