My friend Brooke-

Brooke's 14, she has cancer(I can't remember what type) and she had it removed once and it came back, she's in hospital at the moment. Please keep her in your thoughts, I can't even begin to imagine what it's like for her. She started college last year(along with me) and 6 months later she was diagnosed, she was in and out of hospital for about 7 months, she came back to school this year but it came back. I hope she's going to be OK.

I am very sorry about Brooke.... Sam, I hope these vibes that I am going to send her help her heal.

I am so sorry Sam about your friend ((((((HUGS))))))
I sure will say a prayer for her :angel2:

Sam, I'm so sorry about your friend, and I sending her lots of special positive vibes.

You know I didnt even think about that...I'm just so used to hearing about it with older people...like my grandma and Lyle's for instance. It's horrible for it to happen to anyone.....I wish so much they'd find a cure!

Thanks Guys! I'll let you know if I find out anything.

Sam. your friend Brooke is in my thoughts. I had leukemia when I was ten, and the doctors gave my parents very little hope for my survival. Guess what - I'll be 47 in May, and I'm still around to make life difficult for others. One of my best friends died of encephalitis when we were 11. She's still somebody I think of all the time. There is absolutely no way of knowing what will happen, but you can make a big difference by being there for your friend, listening to her hopes and fears. She might survive this, and she might not, but having somebody to talk to honestly can make a very big difference. My impression is that you are a "tough cookie", i.e., somebody who has had a hard life, but is able to deal with adversities. You are going to have be strong for your friend right now, but you have a lot of people right here to fall back on if you're feeling overwhelmed, fearful, discouraged, and so on. Don't hesitate to use personal messaging, or to post problems here.

I am so sorry to read that, I hope that all goes well for your friend. Take care

Im so. sosorry to hear of your friend. Sending her ((((((((positive vibes))))))))).

I wish they could find a cure once and for all!

Brooke is in my prayers.

Kellye, I'll be sure to let her know.

Sam - You and especialy Brooke are in our thoughts and prayers. Hope she is able to get it into remission again. {{{HUGS}}}

I will keep her in my thoughts and prayers, Sam!
