10:36 PM, PST

Good evening. David did well in PT today. Linda does things that cause pain, but he know it is only to help him. We told him that since he really doesn't like going to PT (except the pool), then the harder he works the faster he will improve, and the sooner he can quit going. He does work hard and we are so very proud of him.

It is with a heavy heart that I write another osteo warrior is dying. In case I haven't said it before, I HATE CANCER!! This sucks so much. Here is what his mom wrote:Brandon has asked me to do an update to inform all his loving supporters that the end is near. He was moved to ICU last night because he was struggling with his breathing and heart. This morning we were told that the Osteo is taking over... his cancer is surrounded his lungs on the outside and is basically beyond control at this point. He is exhausted... he has asked a couple of friends to come to DeVos and that is about all he can handle today. I will let you know when he is stable enough for visitors. We can not use cell phones in ICU but he can read his text messages. I don't know what more to say other than I reassured him how very proud I am of him for battling through this with the utmost dignity and grace and without a doubt he make an impact on many people. Forever B's Mom Please pray for this family. His caring bridge site is www.caringbridge.org/visit/brandongordon. All of us osteo parents know that this could be something we could be writing at any time. Please, please pray for this family. Thank you.

Well, you all have a good evening. Thank you for your prayers, we need them! Thank you for checking in on David. Thank you so much for your love. God bless each and every one of you. We love you.
