MY DADS CONDITION

ON THURSDAY LAST WEEK... MY DAD WENT INTO THE HOSPITAL WITH HEAD PAIN AND PRESSURE... BY FRIDAY MORNING HE WAS HAVING EMERGENCY SURGERY... WE FOUND OUT THAT MY DAD HAD GLIOBLASTOMA (THE MOST AGGRESSIVE BRAIN CANCER THERE IS)

HIS SURGERY WENT WELL... THEY REMOVED 80% OF IT ... AND THE DOCTOR IS HOPEFUL THAT WITH RADIATION AND CHEMO THEY CAN TAKE CARE OF THE REST...

MY WHOLE LIFE, MY DAD HAS BEEN THE MOST AMAZING EXAMPLE OF CHRIST LIKE ATTRIBUTES.... HE HAS ALWAYS BEEN THERE FOR MY FAMILY, WORKING HIS HARDEST TO PROVIDE A GOOD LIFE!... HE HAS TAUGHT ME ABOUT THE GOSPEL... AND LOVE...
HIM AND MY MOM ARE MY INSPIRATION FOR LIVING!

AFTER ALL THIS MY DAD IS STILL THE MOST OPTIMISTIC, SPIRITUAL PERSON I KNOW! HE IS A FIGHTER! AND MY HERO! ... LOOKING AT HIM GIVES ME HOPE!
ME AND MY FATHER ARE SO MUCH ALIKE, AND SEEING HIM IN THIS TIME OF TRIAL HE IS STILL FAITHFUL !

IN THE SCRIPTURES IT SAYS; IF WE ARE FAITHFUL AND TRUST IN CHRIST, AND TAKE UP OUR CROSS AND ENDURE TO THE END ... THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS OURS!
THIS IS MY DAD!

I AM SO THANKFUL FOR THE GOSPEL IN MY LIFE! I DON'T KNOW WHAT I WOULD DO WITHOUT IT! THE PLAN OF SALVATION IS SO SWEET!... I AM SO THANKFUL FOR THE TEMPLE COVENANTS MY PARENTS MADE! I KNOW THAT MY FAMILY NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS CAN BE TOGETHER FOR EVER! THERE IS LIFE AFTER DEATH!
I KNOW THAT JESUS CHIRST IS THE SAVIOR OF THE WORLD! AND WITH FAITH IN HIM ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE! I KNOW THIS TO BE TRUE! I KNOW THAT THE LORD OUR FATHER IN HEAVEN LOVES EVERYONE OF US! AND GIVES US OUR TRAILS SO WE WILL LOOK TO HI M FOR STRENGTH... THE LORDS HAND IS IN EVERYTHING!

I PRAY THAT EACH OF US CAN ALWAYS KEEP AN EYE SINGLE TO GOD, AND ALWAYS REMEMBER HIM.... HE LOVES US MORE THEN WE COULD EVER COMPREHEND... I PRAY THAT IN OUR LIVES WE CAN ALWAYS REFLECT GODS GLORY TO ALL OUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS! CHRIST LIVES! HE LOVES US! I KNOW IN MY HEART THESE THINGS ARE TRUE!
I LOVE EACH AND EVERYONE OF YOU!
THANKS FOR ALL THAT YOU DO!
MY FAMILY IS SO GREAT FULL FOR THE PRAYERS! WE REALLY FEEL THEM
MY DAD IS ALSO VERY GREAT FULL!

WE LOVE YOU

GOD BLESS

Hello Sam! this is Eva from Spain :P
I found your blog by chance at Facebook. I liked a lot reading. Way to go! I see you might be going on a mission soon. Well, I wish all good luck to you, and don't forget to tell if you are coming to Spain.
I read this post about your dad. I didn't know anything about it, but I hope he gets better. I really got sad when I read it, but it seems like he will go through it.
Anyway, it's always good seeing you in the Net :)
Tell your dad hi from me. I hope he gets better soon.
Love ya a lot! Hasta pronto! Besos!
