A Way to Help

You have all been so generous with your prayers and good thoughts, for this we are so thankful. Many of you have asked if there is anything you can do to ease our struggle and an oppurtunity has arisen. The Blood Donor Center phoned me today and asked if any friends or family members would be willing to donate platelets for Pat because he is needing transfusions daily. It is not necessary to have the same blood type as Pat in order to donate. If you are interested the phone # for the Donor Center is 626-301-8386. You need to make an apointment and let them know you are donating for Patrick Smith. Pat is feeling fine and is doing his best to be patient while waiting for his treatment to begin. Thank goodness for playoff baseball!!! I guess all we are waiting for is the okey dokey from the insurance to forge ahead. All your blogs are so uplifting and help to keep Pat's eye on the prize. We are such a blessed family to have so many people who love and care for us. Our prayer tonight is for the treatment not only to begin but to be a success, and for Pat's never-ending strength. Love and a good night to you all.
xoxo,
Jules

I agree with all of the comments but mostly the one from April saying how happy she is that Julie brought you into our family. You two are an awesome team in every way and we love you so much.

Praying for you daily,happy to hear the answers for peace and strength! Looking forward to answers to the rest!!

“Cancer is so limited …
It cannot cripple love.
It cannot shatter hope.
It cannot corrode faith.
It cannot destroy peace.
It cannot kill friendship.
It cannot suppress memories.
It cannot silence courage.
It cannot invade the soul.
It cannot steal eternal life.
It cannot conquer the spirit.”

And together we will survive.
