Here is the link for Ethan Grimm. Check it out today if you want to be a part of something going on right now in the life of a 7th grader, something much bigger than what most people have planned for a Monday. Ethan is losing his earthly battle with the same type of brain tumor that also took the life of little Kyrie. He has fought the hard fight (diagnosed when he was 4), and it just may be time for him to win this battle and go on to something much greater than he could ever have here.
The amazing thing about prayer, as I've said before, is how freely it can be expressed and given, nearly without limits, just by opening your heart...no matter how busy you are, or how stressed, no matter if someone in your life is also dying. And taking time to pray for others always makes me feel a part of the Kingdom.
I pray this morning that God might protect Ethan from the evils of this cancer than has invaded his brain. May He be surrounded by God's love, felt through so many, and may each moment be more precious than ever. I also pray for all children with cancer, as I have seen firsthand the horrors inflicted on a grown man.
I also pray for you today, who took time to check on us this morning. Brian is doing ok, headache is still there and he's really sleeping, but steady.

My thoughts and prayers are always with you and Brian, also I do pray all other families that fight the battle of cancer in their lives, Love Dad
Thank you for reminding us that we all are one body. The body of Christ. The pain that one of us feels affects us all. Thank you for reminding us that we should always reach out and pray for others.
