Praying for **MrsLieu** to have strength, courage, peace and healing… and praying that you, **lieu** , have strength and patience.

And I’m currently on the phone with my mother soliciting her prayers, and having to explain the whole concept of message boards and friends you’ve never met. 😃

You’re in my prayers, lieu. It’s times like these that makes you realize how precious life is. Let your wife know how much she means to you every chance you get(as if you need to be told that), and live life with the confidence that God is in total control.

Happy

Argh! Oh, **lieu** , I’m so sorry you both have to go through this. I’ll be thinking of you and your family, and hoping you all pull through this with minimal damage.

Best of luck. If there’s anything else you ever need, know that we’ll pull together and help you out. Even if it’s just as simple as a laugh or a hug.
