Bad news.

Sign in to disble this ad
I am not the most active person on this forum. But I would really be greatful for any prayers or good thoughts. My wife and I took my 10 month old son (His name is Samuel) to the emergency room last night because we had noticed a very hard mass under his ribs on the left side while bathing him. They did some blood work and urine tests. An ultrasound was done this mourning. They are close to 100% sure that the mass is a Neuroblastoma. They will be doing an MRI in the mourning. Possible surgery on monday. What ever you believe, please remember my family in your prayers.

Jeff.

I'm not the most god-fearing young-man, but my prayers are certainly with you and your dear son.

I pray that Samuel comes through this fine and God gives your family comfort and hope as he does come through it.
