Title: Please Pray for my Cousin and my Family
Post by: PIBby on January 31, 2004, 07:11:38 pm

Most of you probably don't know, but late 2002, one of my cousins (on my Mom's side), Mitchell, who was 13 at the time, was diagnosed with brain cancer. Throughout 2003, he struggled with it, and this morning, Mitchell, 14, passed away. My Aunt Patsy and Uncle Jack, Mitchell's parents as well as my Godparents, are having a presumably hard time at the moment, as well as the rest of us are. We're all practicing Catholics, and Mitchell's family had faith in him and God, and this morning, to hear my Aunt claim she's mad at God, is heartbreaking. I even remember hearing her say, "I don't know why God is doing this," which, we've all wondered that. I've been at my Aunt Patsy's and then Grandmother's today, and both places are unbelievably emotionally draining. So, I'm just asking you to keep Mitchell and our family in your prayers.

Thank you.

I really don't know why things like this happen. And clearly some members of your family don't either, but know your cousin is safe and peaceful now.  Love to you cece.
