Default Thoughts and prayers needed

Shadman has been so helpful in getting this site up and running and there are still some things that need to be done. However, he and his family are dealing with a more serious issue. His 2 year-old son, Jonathan, has an inoperable brain tumor. I first heard about it on SaltyTexan. Shad told me today that his condition has worsened and that the next day or so might be his last. Everybody keep Shad and his family in your thoughts and prayers. Salty

Shad,I know you'd take that tumor in a heartbeat if it meant your childs survival.
I can't imagine if something like this happened to one of my children.
I'll give them extra love tonight thinking about your child.
God Bless Your Child.

Jonathan is still hanging in there. His oxygen saturation is down in the upper 30s now, and his heartrate is around 160. He just refuses to give up the fight. He has enough morphine in him to take down a horse, so he's not in any pain, but he's having difficulty breathing. We don't expect him to be with us much longer. In fact, I am utterly amazed that he still is. We have told him that it is OK for him to let go and be in peace, and everybody has said their goodbyes. I just pray that it happens quickly and with no pain. Please continue to pray for our little boy.

With tears in my eyes, God bless you and that strong beautiful little boy Jeff! We could only wish to have a portion of the strength and courage that Jonathan has.

I'm crying right now reading this to my family.
My little 5 year old angel haley said that the little boy is going to have wings and be able to fly with the birds With Jesus.

You never know what comes out of the mouth of babes.

Anyway.
God blessed your family with a child that fell ill.
He has taught you the difference between real love and just love.
He has taught you the difference between real pain and jusp pain.

It never seems right for God to take a young one.
Lord knows I'd be struggling every day with my faith if something like this happened to either of my kids.
What you and your family are going trough has solidified my family.
I give extra long kisses goodnight and extra long hugs in the morning before school.
Just wanted to let you know Shad that your son has made a difference in this horrible little world.
God bless him and your family.
MOJO
