My Papaw

I just wanted to ask everyone to pray for my grandpa if they get a chance! Yesterday he was feeling really (like couldn't walk 3 steps) weak and like he was going to pass out. My grandma called my mom and asked her to come home and go w/ them to Evansville to the ER. They didn't know what it was, but they knew something was wrong. He just spent a week in the hospital a few weeks ago and had been feeling much better. I waited, not so patiently, all afternoon for a call from my mom. She finally did call and tell me that he is losing blood. He had to have a blood transfusion. They couldn't pinpoint where the bleeding was coming from at that point. Today they are doing a colonscopy b/c his stool did test positive for traces of blood. His cancer did originally start in his colon (back in 2004) this is when he had surgery to remove it. My heart is hurting for my Papaw. I don't know exactly how to explain what I feel. I'm not "worried" about him in the sense of his soul, I know when he passes away he's going to Heaven b/c he's accepted Jesus' saving grace. He doesn't talk about his feelings much, and I guess this is what worries me... is that he's scared or worried or upset. These should probably be the least of my concerns for him, but... I can't help myself.

this is the last picture of my papaw i have before we found out he had cancer (he was being silly at los bravos in jasper) that's a napkin on his head! he can always make me smile... i think this will forever be my favorite picture of him, b/c it's before our lives changed in our immediate family, w/ that ugly word, cancer...

this picture is blury for some reason, but it's my papaw and brycen... he is def. one of B's favorites... and man, i thought my papaw loved me a lot, he is obsessive about Brycen :)
