My niece didn't grow up in the best of circumstances. She started smoking pot during jr. high that was supplied to her by her estranged mom. Even though we all know the pot is harmless and everyone should do it, she eventually moved on to more harmful drugs. She became pregnant and had a baby boy. Fast forward about 7 years, and she is arrested for intent to sale. She loses custody of her son and spends a year in prison. She works very hard at all the programs that she has to to regain custody. She gets out of prison clean and sober. Works the programs and stays sober. She meets an honest, decent, hard-working man, and they get married. He has 2 kids from a previous marriage. It really is the very first time in her life that a man treats her well. She gets pregnant. He starts a business and buys a house. Business is going well, house repairs are moving along, her son wants to take his step father's name. Life is good. The new baby is born, and all is well. About 2 months after the baby is born her husband has a "cold" he can't seem to shake. After a battery of tests, it is determined that he has leukemia, and needs to start chemo immediately. The baby is now 9 months old. This morning I got a phone call that the doctors can't do anything else for him...that my niece should pull the plug. They cleared him of cancer last week. His treatment has killed him.
The last I heard, she is trying to find another hospital, but things don't look good.

Just want to make folks smile, and spit coffee on their keyboard.
If you put beans in your chili, you don't know beans about chili.
God doesn't create temporary people, you will spend eternity somewhere. Choose wisely.
