My Uncle Rock- one of my favoritest uncles :)

I feel like a part of me has died. My uncle Greg and grandma ( who live here) as well as my Uncle Chris and Rock have all left. They visited for about a week and left..it is so sad. I miss them horribly. My uncle Greg drove my grandma to Florida for her doctor appointments, and my two uncles to the airport. Please pray for them as they fly to Texas....Rock has fought non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma now for almost 7 years. He beat it, and then about 5 months ago, it came back so bad that the doctors gave him about two weeks to live. Praise the Lord, he not only lived, but came to know Jesus as well! But now, cancer was found in his pancreas, and no one (except God) knows how much longer he has here on earth. He could live a week or he could live 6 months. But the doctor he going to see in Texas, Dr. Burzynski, is a homeopathic doctor who has cured many, many people in the last stages of cancer. He uses a therapy that kills only cancer cells, unlike chemotherapy and radiation which not only kills cancer cells but the needed cells as well. (Actually, chemo and radiation only slow the growth of the cancer down and compromises the immune system, so it is not really a matter of IF the cancer returns, but WHEN. Very few people make it through the chemo to see remission.) So please pray that God will use this doctor to heal my uncle.

I did get an awesome chance to talk to Uncle Rock before he left for Texas. We had such a good conversation about the Lord and how much hope and joy and peace He gives us! It was so sad though. I don’t even know how much longer I could have my uncle here with me; I feel like I am just getting over the death of my other uncle. Even though his death was three, almost four, years ago, I feel like it happened yesterday. I don’t know if I can handle another funeral.... It was scary talking to him...he looked so tired.....and his cheeks were all sunken in and his eyes kept rolling back in his head, and every once in a while, he would struggle for words....for air...it is so hard not to question why God allows pain like this to happen.....
