Vinnie

I took this pic several years ago. Vinnie is a very good friend of mine.
I was saddened to find out a couple weeks ago that he has stage two bone marrow cancer. He was given about six months, unless the meds, and kemo, and being able to go into the stemcell replacement,
program work to give him another chance. For thoses of you out there pray, please pray for him, his wife, and twin 16 year old boys.
I want to thank you in advance for doing so.

How is Vinnie doing . . would love to hear anything that you can share about his progress, Richard.

Keeping up the prayers for VInnie.

@karenann He has good and bad days as could be expected. Discouragement is a real foe for him. I try to encourage him about the Lord. His comment to me was "it is hard to look for the light when there is so much darkness" very understandable
