For any of you who are so inclined, I would appreciate a prayer for my brother, Curtis.

He was diagnosed this past Saturday morning with a rather aggressive bone cancer, at age 36. At this time the prognosis isn’t good.

Thank you, with all my heart.

My best wishes for your brother, and my prayer for strength for your family.

However, this thread is being moved to MPSIMS, as it is a personal matter rather than a General Question…

… although I am certainly not suggesting this is either mundane or pointless, just that it is an issue to be “shared” rather than a question to be answered.
