My Son's Battle with stage 4 Cancer
I am a proud Mama!!
Yes sir reeeeeeeee......................
My son, Jared is such an inspiration to me
actually, he is an inspiration to a lot of people
Because....................
in the FACE of adversity
He rejoices, because he knows where his help comes from
he understands that he is not his own and put's
his FAITH, his TRUST in
"JESUS"
You see, Jared just got out of the hospital for a 3 day chemo treatment
To bring you up to speed.........
Last year he went through 3 rounds of AVBD Chemo treatments
from Jan- March 2013 until the pet scan came back clean.
Then after a check up and another pet scan the cancer was diagnosed again in Feb 2014 and this time in his bone Stage 4 HL.
So this is now his second round in 2014 of I.C.E. chemo treatments
which when taken he is admitted into the hospital for 3 days.
The day he arrived in the hospital he got busy about his FATHER'S business
He prayed with one of the nurses
Then later that same day at the hospital he prayed with the guy that came into repair the TV.
There were many more pray sessions through out the 3 days that just blessed my heart
and I have no doubt it
BLESSED GOD'S HEART!!
The day after Jared got out of the hospital
he was ask to be the guest speaker at "Relay For Life"
He shared his STORY..............
He brought a message of FAITH & HOPE in Jesus to those that are fighting cancer, those who have fought and won, or sadly those who have lost someone to cancer.
He spoke with people
..................He Prayed with people
He took the time to love on people......
Jesus ask us to be his hands and feet and Jared does this so beautifully
this guy had lost his Father to cancer and was deeply wounded trying to heal from the pain
2013 Mustang .......The Memorial on wheels
Here is a cancer awareness car that Jared got the privilege to sign
what a beautiful memorial to all those we love and remember.......
This picture says it all.................
Jared loves life, he is an encourager.......he shares the life of Jesus that he has been given
does he get down, sure, does he have negative thoughts, Im sure
But he knows all those are choices
.....................he chooses to live IN HOPE
he chooses daily to live IN FAITH
not in despair....................
I love what he said at the "Relay For Life" during his speech
"I am not here to make you aware of Cancer, I am here to make Cancer aware of JESUS"
Don't tell God how big your problem is, tell your problem how big your GOD is
So you see with a thankful and humble heart I am proud to call him SON!
