My best friend needs some luck to go his way. 4 years ago -- he was diagnosed with a rare blood cancer and given very little chance to live until the end of the year. He had a full bone marrow transplant, which completely changed his blood type, countless rounds of extreme level chemotherapy. He beat the odds and made it thru.
About 2 years ago -- he was riding in a side by side and it rolled and he suffered a de-gloving injury ripping the skin from his shoulder all the way down to his finger tips. Doctors said he should have died because of blood loss, but somehow when he was brought in to the hospital, his blood count had went up. He had major skin graph surgery on his entire arm and hand. His hand where the skin was ripped off kept getting infected and it was to the point where they were going to amputate -- instead, he had them do a surgery, where they sewed his hand into his groin for two weeks to allow the fat to grow on top of the hand. He again beat the odds and made it thru, to the point I went golfing with him this summer.
Last week -- he was in his kitchen waiting to take his 10 year old daughter to school, and out of nowhere he had a seizure. Hit his head on the counter and broke his wrist in the fall. His 10 year old daughter had to take his phone and call 911 to get an ambulance. They now found 4 masses in his frontal lobe and they are testing to see if it is from an infection or if it is cancer. The guy needs a break. His family needs a break.
Can you all add him to your prayers. He can use it.

to your friend. As someone who has suffered from multiple seizures in my life, it's often times more scary to witness it, then go through it.
