I believe in God but I sure can not figure out his plan. My 9 year old nephew passed away this morning. He has been battling acute lymphocyte leukemia since last spring. He just did not wake up this morning. The only good thing is that he is finally without pain.
This has been a very private thing in my family. We have kept it close to just the family. My nephew wanted his life to be as normal as it could be. He did not want to be treated differently for as long as he could. Really until after Christmas it was that way but then the treatments stopped holding the cancer back. It simply exploded the last month and a half.
I can still remember my brother calling me and telling me he had a son. He was feeling ten feet tall that day. It only seems like yesterday that my nephew was running around here getting into things while we where working on something. He really literally grew up with his DAD/my brother. My brother's wife had a very good full time job. So after her maternity leave my brother took over the kid care duties. He did this while farming full time. We made car seat brackets for a lot of equipment over the years. Then buddy seats when he was bigger.
They had another child four years ago. This time they where blessed with a baby girl. My SIL quit work at that time.
This loss is terrible on any parent. It is really hitting my brother HARD!!! He just lost his child and his future plans all at once. There was never any doubt what my nephew wanted to be when he grew up. He was doing chores as soon as he could walk behind his Dad. He was involved/around farm work from birth. My brother carried him in a baby back pack since he was weeks old. This is a crushing blow to my brother. We can be there for him but that is a small thing compared to his loss.
Why am I writing this on here???? The next time you are asked to donate to cancer research think about my nephew. WE WILL beat this disease some day. It just will take someone finding the cure.
Heck of a way to always remember Good Friday in the future. I just can't understand the plan.

Today's Featured Article - The Day Mom Drove the 8N - by Brian Browning. My Dad was wanting to put in a garden but couldn't operate the 8N and handle the old horse drawn plow he had found and rigged up to use with the tractor. Well, he decided to go get Mom out of the house and have her drive the tractor while he walked behind the plow. You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o
