Prayer request and a big THANK you...

Good morning everyone,
I don't do much posting here but felt lead to do so after last evening. First off, my prayer request.... My wife and I recently found out our son has been diagnosed with Hodgkin's disease. He's attending the football camp this weekend at Clemson. He begins his treatment this week coming, so this camp is going to be by far the highlight of his summer. As of right now, the doctors believe this can be resolved by the end of the summer. Please pray for him.
Now, my thank you. I emailed Coach Dabo about my son only to request any encouraging words he could tell him if he had time. He responded and said, certainly he would. In the morning, he took the time during pictures to talk to him. And, Last night before dismissal of the kids from camp, Coach Swinney called my son up in front of everyone at Death Valley and gave him some very encouraging words about fighting this disease. For him to take the time for my little boy (he's eight years old) and do that meant to world to our family, especially Dax.
Our coach is a rare find and we are truly blessed for him to be leading this football program.

My son is also at the camp. it's his first time to spend the night away from home in a camp setting. He was a little hesitant to go until he realized there was unlimited dessert in the cafeteria.

Praying for your son and your family. I hope his treatments go well. As for Dabo, he is a good coach, but an even better man!

Lord place a healing hand on this boy. Give caregivers and doctors wisdom and skill. Give him courage and strength. Send your spirit to minister and a legion of angles.

I know several people who have beaten that disease, and he can too. God will give him the strength to fight like a Tiger!

Will certainly be praying for strength and healing for your son and strength for your family. Glad to hear that the prognosis sounds good after treatment. And you're right...Dabo is a special person.

I saw Dabo giving your son the signed trophy at the finale. That was awesome. Bet your kid was super excited about that.
