first the important part. My youngest son, Andrew's best friend, Dallas
Nichols has 2 Aortal Anuerysms that he will be having surgery on Friday
to repair. He is just 13 years old, and it was discovered this year when
he had his football physical, and a heart murmur was detected (Thank God
for yearly physicals) Im having strong faith in the fact the doctors are
confident enough that he is at home until tomorrow when he cheks in to
the hospital. I ask for evryones strongest praayers, thoughts,
meditations or whatever energy we can all devote to this brave young
man. Andrew insisted on seeing him yesterday, and he wanted to go after
my older son, Daniel's football playoff game (more on that later) to
report the score but it looked as iff everyone was in bed. Andrew also
plans to forgo Halloween tonight to spend it with him. He is taking this
in a more solemn way than I have seen Andrew...even more than when his
cat died last year(and that was a biggie) Its different to see him this
way, cuz I love him with all my heart but he is one of those stubborn
loveable a$$h0le kids...I dont mean that derogatory at all, hes not
bullyish, he just believes the world hasnt and likely will never figure
out everything he already knows :) I ask for prayers for Dallas and his
Family but also for Andrew, because aside from his cat, he's never
experienced a loss that would match the magnitude of losing a best
friend at 13. When we lost French Fry (the cat) He requested my oldest
son and his band write a song about him, and he also had me call my
friend who is a sports radio announcer to do a short eulogy, which,
bless him he did. Andrew is one Im afraid will internalize and be way
too stubborn for counseling, so though Dallas is the one needing the
strongest prayers, I ask for them for my son as well.
Now on the lighter good news side. My oldest son's team won their second
round playoff game last night 41-7. This means that though they have a
short turnaround..they play saturday night at 7pm, and 150 miles away,
Daniel will be medically cleared to play from his nose surgery. I wont
be able to get there for the game, but I gave up most of my voice at
last nights home game....and it will be on the radio. The only prayers I
make on sports games is that all remain healthy, a win seems trivial to
pray for...instead I just believe in the Purple & Silver, GO
BULLDOGS!!!!
Bless all of you, and thank you all for your continuing support :)

dave,
consider them prayed for-one and all. It sounds like you have a couple of
very special, wonderful sons. Andrew has, it seems a capacity for love
and compassion that are beyond his years. first, well, I hope doesn't
have to mourn, that Dallas pulls through. But, Andrew's actions prove
that he's learned that its worth forgoing a night of Halloween fun, to be
with his best friend. And, I'm sure, whatever the outcome with Dallas is,
he'll never regret this decision.
It doesn't deem that there's any need for counseling-at this point. He IS
doing what's right-he's learned this lesson young, but correctly. My
heart goes out to all involved-including you-and, I'll just keep praying
for the best of outcomes. Please, kep us informed,
