Feed him anything he wants. I am going to ask this despite the people thinking I am insane. Have you and you wife thought of any of the "alternative" therapies? I mean no disrespect of the doctors. It is just that some have made claims on natural medicines that help and seem to even destroy cancer cells. I will continue to have Owen in my prayers and heart. Kevin

Regardless of the outcome you and your wife are doing what Owen needs. That's loving him with all your hearts and that's incredible in its self!

You know, I woke up this morning just angry and frustrated with my petty little issues. What a fool I was. What a little hero you have there! May God bless your special child and your special family. I write this with tears in my eyes. Please enjoy every minute you have with that wonderful person. I'm not a very religous person, but I will pray for you all.
my sentiments too! my petty issues are nothing compared to this. may God bless this little boy and the whole family. prayers for you all,.. .

Darren, I have been following your posts since the beginning, hoping against hope that the news would some day get better. All I can do is offer what little support I can give you. You and Dennis were always there when I had questions on my build but that seems so trivial now. Our children are everything to us and to see them hurting wrenches our gut out. All I can say is be strong. Of course, our prayers have been with Owen and his family and will continue to be. Keep the faith.

Knowing what will come must be very Painful for you and the rest of your family. I unfortunately know and understand your pain as I lost my daughter in 1983. I wish you and your family well and the strength to carry on.

The pain medicine is starting to not work very well. He is tossing and turning all night.
We've had a lot of family over every day which has been nice. My wifes coworkers all pitched in and bought us about 7 bags of groceries. Are cupboards are stocked.
My sister took me shopping yesterday and helped me pick out two nice outfits. I havn't had to dress up in a long time...everything I had was too small.;
I've got a lot of the arrangements already taken care of. I talked to my parents church, the funeral home and the cemetery. The more I can get done now the better

Is there anything moparts members can do to help? How are you sitting on arrangements? I know when Maddox passed away friends of the family all brought food to help the family for months after just to help off set hospital bills and grocery shopping was one less thing they had to do. We also did find raisers after his passing that really helped the family both financially but more importantly emotionally.

Never have I spent more time on editing a short post - I hope it comes out the way I intend. Your calmness and grace through this are a tremendous inspiration Darren - Owen is lucky to have you both as parents. I can think of very very few folks who could handle this like you have and I for one am grateful to have been included in this story. May your remaining days with him be spent filled with love and building memories and may God continue to grant you all peace and strength.
