Need Your Prayers - Off BBing Topics
« on: November 20, 2007, 03:48:21 PM »
Early this morning my stepson, who turns 20 on Sunday and whom I'm close too, called me yesterday saying he was he had stomach cramps and was thowing up blood, I told to immediatly go to the ER, when he got there they ran some tests and said he had some perferations in the lining of his stomach wall and that was causing the bleeding. They sent him home and he texts me about 1:30am and when he went to the bathroom he had blood in is stool, again, I told him to get back the the ER and I would meet him there. He said don't worry about it and he would call me later.

He finally calls me at 5:30am and after extensive tests came to the conclusion that he was on the verge of cirrhosis of the liver along with the stomach bleeding, it gets more nerve racking.........while the were running the tests they find a tumor on his kidney, he went for more tests today and a biopsy is scheduled for later on this weeks, the ultra sound showed that it was a tumor about the size of a gum ball and since the tumor was hard and not soft like a cyst, it's more than likely cancer, needless to say I'm pretty devastated right now, but I'm reaching out to everyone for prayers for him.........even if you don't believe in God or prayers thoughts would be nice.

this is need to know depending....i'm curious myself. It could tell you alot of things as to the cause of the problem. It might not only be a kidney issue.

Sorry to hear that man.. Know it's hard to cope with stuff like this, but I hope your family gets through okay. I don't know anything about the nature of these things, but I hope your stepson can recover if it isn't too late.

I really hope this isn't your way of backing out of competing Coach.....that would be a real shitbag move on your part. Cancer isn't something to take non-chalantly   >:(

Thanks for your prayers guys, I really appreciate it. Worst case senerio he will lose his kidney but not his life....but still, of course it's hard, after the tests are confirmed (Dr's prepared him for the probable results) he will be going back to Chicago to the Mayo Clinic for treatment and to be with his dad.

No, I'm still competing and have 10 days from tomorrow and would NEVER use that as an excuse just to back out.

The show isn't until Dec 1. and I am retiring.....but there's nothing wrong with asking for prayers.
