Please pray for our Grandparents.

Hi,

Yesterday afternoon my mom made a phone call to a friend. They use to live up Connecticut with us. But soon moved to Florida about 3 years after we moved here. We call them grandpa and grandma because it was always a polite thing to do. But when I really think about it... they've been so kind. We were always invited for lunch and they even held a mini Christmas party for my sisters and I. Even though their not my actual grandparents, I'm more than happy to say they are.

My mom was sad after the phone call. She found out that Grandpa is diagnose with terminal cancer. When somebody tells you, somebody in their family is ill. You also feel sad about the situation but it doesn't really touch you... Finding out that he has cancer has really shakened me. Grandma is also struggling. She has diabetes and found out that it has affected her leg. She will have to amputate her leg in the future. To make things easier, they now have a nurse assisting them at the house.

I just ask that you'd take sometime to pray for them.
I'm going to write a handwritten letter. If you'd like to say a few words, don't hesitate. Knowing that somebody is by your side is such a nice feeling.

They live 5 hours away and my mom is too worried to drive that far. I do hope she'll change her mind.
