If You Believe In Prayer...

**xlxBigSexyxlx** · 06-14-2007, 11:44 PM

Then please pray for my bro. He is 26, and has a highly malignant brain tumor. Only 1% of adults with tumors have this rare tumor, and it just so happens to be him. He is only treatable, but not yet curable. His surgery went well, but he is on a life long journey to recovery, and even at that, we are not sure how long he will last. They say 5 years at most, unless a miracle happens. I went to go see him, and it just tore me up. Such a big strong guy, so helpless, just lying there in a bed. He has to learn how to walk again and gain his speech back, and other things. Its just, he needs all the help he can get right now, just give him 10 seconds out of your day, and maybe that miracle can happen.

Thanks, and take care...

It makes me sick when I hear things like this. If there's one thing i'm scared of it's things like this, that I have no control over. Don't worry bro, things will get better, just be strong.

My prayers are with you and your brother.

Thanks guys.

A little update:
today he walked 70 feet, with a walker of course. He has gotten all his IV's taken out and can now eat whole food.
He is still having a problem with double vision, and they think it may be spinal fluid build up in the brain. So he might have to have surgery again and settle that problem, so thats not good. As soon as they can get his vision to workable limits, they wanna move him to a rehab place.

Well, just gotta keep thinking positive.

**Tapout** · 06-24-2007, 09:47 PM

glad to hear he is making progress. my uncle actually went through a similar experience..a monster truck tire blew up in his face and he was in a coma..when he came out, he had to learn everything again..speaking, walking, everything..today he is alive well and a multimillionaire with absolutely no lasting disability. i know its not exactly the same, but just know that the human body is capable of incredible things..i wish your bro the best with his continued recovery.
peace
