Prayers for one of our Vets, please
Hi everyone! I know that this request is steering the cart a little off of our main trail, but I had to wrest the reins for a moment or two. Please pray for and send good wishes to "Ozzie", a disabled Vietnam veteran who was diagnosed with acute Leukemia 6 months ago. He has recently undergone a bone-marrow transplant. His brother was the donor. His sister, Becky, has taken a leave of absence from work to care for him. I do not know Ozzie personally, but I do know from those that know him that he is a great guy. While in the hospital, he is the guy that goes around to the other patients cheering them up, incredibly upbeat and possessing a great sense of humour. I've recently learned of Ozzie's plight from my best friend, Todd, who is close to the family. This Saturday, in the Hampton Roads, Va, area, Ozzie's family and supporters will be conducting a poker run and moving bake sale. Please send up prayers and warm thoughts for Ozzie and Becky that the bake sale and poker run does well. (Becky has 2 children and right now has no real income, she's just taking care of her brother) Also, please pray that Ozzie's treatment works. I apologize for taking the reins, but I feel like we are all family here, and in this together. Thanks and blessings to you all, Bill
