The disease has attacked his large intestine and colon. He tried everything from steriods to injections. He goes in next week on mothers day weekend to have his large intestine and colon removed. It is the last resort for him and the condition can turn to colon cancer if they don't get it out. Have you or any one you know ever been sick like this? We are hoping for the best at least he won't have to go to the bathroom 30 or 40 times a day. When it's bad it can be like 8 times in a half hour. He wears baggy clothes all the time so people can't see how sick he is. The guys at his work were shocked when he told them he was having this done, he never mentioned it to anyone and never complained. The strongest person I've ever met. My family is very worried for him, so guys can you have some prayers for him? We need all the help we can get right now.

I'm sorry about your sick brother, I hope he feels better after the surgery, I know you and your family are going through some rough times, but as long as you all stick together, and don't lose that strength between all of you. You gotsa stay strong for him, and let him know that you will always be there for him. When that day comes and he feels alot better, he'll be there to laugh and hang with you again. So I'll keep him in my prayers for you. I know he'll come through and everything will be okay.
