Ryan, as others have said, it takes tremendous courage to face unwelcome adversity, but I'm a firm believer that God has a plan for every spirit. You have obvioiusly touched many on this forum, and all of us wish you an eternity of heavenly blessings. Thank you so much for sharing your story. I wish you peace as you journey into God's spiritual universe...

Truly i cant thank you enough for the thoughts, prayers, and words you have voiced for me here within my last little bit. but if you pick up anything out of my post is how really important the little things are and also how important family truly is. these to me are the biggest things that i have worked on and made so much of a difference here in my last year.

thanks again and god bless all

Default Almost Time..

Ryan,
As the time draws near that you will go to be with our lord, it is amazing to know someone as young as your self has made the connection to what really matters. Friends and family, responsibility and integrity.
When you walk down the hall to your new house, you will see the light that is our lord, on his right hand will be our savior, and you will take a seat on his left. You will have no regrets, nothing unfinished. You will feel no more pain, you journey will be complete.
You will bask in the glow of everlasting love and spend eternity greeting all those that come after you. I'm not sure how, but I hope you will recognize all of us, and we you.
We will rejoice in all that is there, just as promised by Jesus. And probably organize something that feels like a Corvette run, GTG or maybe an AutoX!
How great that you seem ready for your journey. The tank is topped off, the top is off, and the exhaust is roaring!
God Speed young man, go reserve a bunch of good parking spots for us, we will be right there......

I really do not know what to say. I sit here with tears as I read the post that many have sent. I can only say I admire your courage, honesty and strength of character. May God bless you and your family. You are right...everything happens for a reason. Somtimes it is hard for to understand, but we have to have faith is something greater than us, and it appears you have developed the strength to understanding to accept this. Godspeed

Default I wish I could give you a hug...

I cannot say any more that hasn't already been said so well by others, but I have a few thoughts to share nonetheless.

I am not ashamed to admit I cried reading your post. I lost someone very close to me on this forum from cancer (see my location to the left), so this thread resurrected many of those feelings.

I believe in miracles and God's purpose for all of us. My prayer is for God's will to be done in your life, and that His blessings and peace be upon you and your family now and always. I prayed this for you last night before I fell off to sleep and will continue to do so.

You have left an indelible mark on this forum, and we are forever richer for having known you here.
