Holding On...

As I go forward step by step, the way will be opened up unto me.( Proverbs 4:12 )

We are taking one moment at a time. There is nothing right or OK about this. My heart aches and aches. I never thought we wouldn't get through this...I never imagined how much it would hurt.

Alec is my hero and I have never met anyone with such character, such determination, such spirit.

We will continue to pray for a miracle, but the nurse said earlier this week that miracles sometimes don't happen on earth.

Thank you for the endless love, support, prayers, and all the food, cards, flowers, etc. We are so touched by the Grace you have all shown. I know you want to take away the pain, and you are, even if you don't know it. My heart breaks a little less with each act of kindness.

My sister, Jill created "Team Alec" for a walk/run sponsored by the Colon Cancer Coalition. It is a 5K around Castle Island in South Boston on November 12. I cant believe all the people who have signed up and donated already. It is incredible. Jill already had to increase the donation from 1,000 to 2,000 within 48 hours. Jill did not have all your email addresses, but we want EVERYONE to be invited and to be a part of such a great event. And, if you would like to run with a number, you do have to sign up at this link and pay $25.00

Thank you and love to all,
