My blog has been about telling a story that I thought could help others, a lot of it is just things happening in my life, and as my niece says showing your recovery will help others see that things can get better.
Today I am begging for the help of you readers. I believe in the power of prayer and I have a friend in desperate need of a miracle.
My friend’s name is Ozzie or at least that’s what I call him. Ozzie appears to be a bit of a gruff fellow when you first meet him, but just like a lot of people like this they turn out to be genuinely good people deep down inside.
Good old Ozzie is a little long in the tooth and he retired a few years back, he came to work with us part time I think just to get out of the house. He and his family have a little place up on lake Erie and they spend time up there on his boat Walleye fishing. Fishing and his garden seem to be his favorite things to talk about.
Ozzie was recently diagnosed with mesothelioma, a rare form of cancer. As Ozzie described this to me, he has no mass or tumor, his lung starts to fill with a fluid and this fluid is the cancer.
Ozzie has just started chemotherapy and his doctor told him that if it works he may have a few years of life left but if not he may only have as short as a month. This is why I am asking you to please try to find just a minute in your busy day to remember Ozzie in your prayers.
With God all things are possible, please join me in prayer.
Dear Lord we ask that you may bless Ozzie with a few more years of life to help take care of his wife, may he please have a chance to enjoy the golden years of his life.
AMEN
Thank you,
Lonnie
