Thanks Cliff. We have been friends for along time, I have known a lot of you guys for along time as well.
It has been the hardest thing I have ever faced, and my wife of 21 years is facing her mortality like a champ, knowing she will not see either of her daughter graduate from high school, college or get married.
We have been working on videos for the girls for these life events, which to say the least is torture.
Luckily I retired right down the street from MD Anderson and she worked there while in college, they got in her right away and have done an incredible job through 4 skilled brain surgeries and multiple experimental treatments extending her life, but we are the point they are running out of options and her quality of life is declining rapidly.
The only option left is some help from
The Lord, so I will take all the prayers I can get.
Spence, aka Charles or Charlie lol. Sorry to hear this Spence, as you are one of the good guys. Prayers sent for you and your family, May you all find peace.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

May God hold this family in his hands and give them the strength to endure.
Some mornings, it just does not feel worth it to chew through the straps!~

More prayers sent.
May God give your entire family peace that surpasses all human understanding.
His mercies never cease, they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.
Stay strong my campfire brother.

Praying that God will help this family with all their needs and lead, guide, and direct them. God answers our prayers. We have faith in our merciful Creator and He gives us hope for the future. May peace and understanding bless this family and their caretakers, friends and supporters in this time of need. Thank you for your concern for your friends and family and for sharing this opportunity for 24HCF members to help others by multiple prayers. Jim

Spence,
Don’t have the words for you man. Making the videos, as hard as they are, will be golden some day. My mother lost her 14 month battle with cancer when our daughter was 5 months old. The videos are the only memories she has of her grandmother. The one’s where my Mom is holding her are special beyond words.
I’m keeping a good thought for you and your wife and kids.
Livin ain’t killed me yet, but it’s workin on it!

From one "charlie" who's wife's outlook was kinda bleak due to the Big C, to another "charlie" doing currently doing battle; keep the faith. My wife has been cancer free for 5 years. Folks on here were awfully generous with their prayers. God bless them.
Peace and comfort to you and yours.
