Family in Need

Brian's Uncle Ron has been battling a rare form of leukemia for over a year now and has recently taken a turn for the worse. We know his time here on earth will be over soon and we would just ask for prayer for him and his entire family. Recently Brian's Aunt Chris, Ron's wife, was also diagnosed with cancer, breast cancer. How does this happen? Spouses both battling the same horrible disease! It's almost too much to handle! While Chris' initial reports looked good, she will be undergoing additional surgery and treatment in the coming weeks. Please pray for her! The circumstances she is in right now are beyond words...only God and His infinite mercy and love will uphold this family during this time. Please also remember their son Ronnie...he is an amazing man with his own burden to carry and we just love him so much! Praise God for the Hope that Chris and Ronnie have in Him and we pray that Ron has that assurance as well...he will see Him soon!

You can read more about the family at their blog here: The Grego Blog

Please also keep Connie, Brian's mom and Chris' sister in your prayers. She has been an amazing support for them, being with them as much as possible and I know this is taking a huge toll on her as well. We love you mom!

Sar-
What's the latest in terms of surgeries and hospitalizations for Ron? It seemed pretty bleak on Saturday...

Will be joining you in prayer!

Ron has Hospice care at the hospital in Wheaton. He is being medicated to stay comfortable. They are not seeking any further treatment at this time. Thanks Jane!
