For a few years of my life, there was only one man who occupied the spot of best of everything for me. He was sent from Heaven to be my angel when I needed it most, he was there to guide me through many hard nights, help me through a gazillion DTR's and would just play in the most honest sense of the word. He was one of my best friends. He occupied a spot in my heart that is still realistically his (and for those that worry for Andy, don't...Andy loves him just as dearly). He picked out my fantastic husband for me and danced the last dance in my wedding video with me. He was my love. Pure and simple. And he is suffering.
His wife was just diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer. Her name is also Heather, and Andy and I had the privilege of spending time with their family when we drove through Colorado this summer. She just gave birth to their third baby and she couldn't be a better match for my dear friend. I can not imagine how they are coping, but I believe in miracles. I believe in God's will. And while His faith is struggling, I ask you to join with me in prayer for them. Pray that no matter what happens, He will have the strength to survive. Eldon and Heather, we love you and hope the angels are around your little ones and you tonight, holding you up.

Wow...As I wipe away the tears. I am so sorry Heather, I recall you telling me about your dear friend a couple of times since I have known you. I will pray for them and their kids during this hard and confusing time. If you need to talk, I am here. GINA
There is nothing harder than seeing a child or a mother suffer except for both....I will be praying for a miracle.
Maybe they could talk to Cindy. Our prayers are with them...
Our prayers too.
Since you told me this story, I have been thinking of them. I will pray for them with you.
Heather, Please have her get in touch with me. If you need my phone number, Melissa has our cell number. I was Stage 2B and was diagnosed the day before Jayden turned 3 months. I have been there and know pretty much what she is feeling. AND, I am still here, now with 2 beautiful girls and another (don't know if it is a girl or boy yet) on the way. It is a fight, but can be done - please get in touch with me! PS - we miss you guys and are glad you are doing well in Missouri.
