Need Your Prayers

[fozsey]

I lost a good lifelong friend to Cancer Monday. I just found out today. Please keep his family in your prayers. He loved to fish and would do just about anything for someone in need. Thanks, Brian

Brian,

Sorry I missed this post yesterday.  My condolences and sympathies to you and your friend's family.  Cancer is a tough and tragic disease that claims the lives of the young who are still so full of life.  It can be very cruel and ugly when it rears its head.  These are difficult dark times and we can only hope that someday there will be a cure for the many different forms of cancer that ravage our bodies and souls!

Keep your spirits up and be thankful for the time that you had together.

My prayers go out to all of those whose lives your friend inspired during his time with you.

Thanks everyone... His funeral was today. We made it through that ok. His family seems to be holding up pretty well considering. MissFishy, your deadon about Cancer and the emotion it generates. I work with terminal Cancer patients every week I am very familiar with its process and the steps involved with its progress, but somehow it is still never the same as when it hits this close to home. We put a man on the moon for crying out loud. Why can't we figure out a way to beat this?

These are difficult dark times and we can only hope that someday there will be a cure for the many different forms of cancer that ravage our bodies and souls!

At the National Institutes of Health, the Director of the National Cancer Institute set a goal of eliminating the suffering and death due to cancer by the year 2015.  For more on that, check out:  http://cancer.gov/directorscorner/directorsupdate-08-27-2003

Here's NCI's home page: www.cancer.gov

I can assure you that Director Dr. Andrew von Eschenbach is passionate about achieving this goal.  Breakthoughs in technology, science, and medicine are occurring at a very fast pace.  The dedication by the NCI scientists is remarkable, as well as the administrative support staff.  I've worked there for the past 5 years and am determined to do my share until I retire to assist this director and his successors in any way that I can.

Foszey, I too grieve with you and his family.  For, when a fellow angler who I've followed on line since the beginning of MFF and also on Iceshanty becomes hurt in such a way, it really hit's home.  I'll pray for you and your friends family as well.

brian  I am very sorry to hear of your loss....my condolences to his family. the sad truth of the we can put a man on the moon remark is that if we spent half as much on medical research,as we do on space exploration,we would never be able to call in sick to go fishing again.its disgusting how much money nasa just gets and how much we have to fight for funding for just about any worthwhile cause.see the price tag on that mars rover...have you ever seen the waiting list for a dyalisis machine?how many dyalisis machines could we buy for local hospitals just for what it costs to build that rover , never mind what it costs to send it to mars
