(The Hubster and I returned from vacation yesterday. I am spending today back at work and getting back into my regular routine. So this post is not of the usual flavor and variety.)

Friends, I am asking for your prayers.

A guy I grew up with and his wife just welcomed their second son about 10 weeks ago. Two weeks ago, their baby, G, was diagnosed with cancer. He is 70 days old.

G is starting on a cancer treatment regimen but much of the treatment is a balance because he is so young. He also has a very rare kind of cancer. His doctors (and a friend I talked to who is a pediatric oncologist) have never seen this kind of cancer in a baby this young. It’s a rare cancer to begin with but basically unheard of in kids this young.

Please say an extra prayer for G today.

Thank you.
