I am amazed at your courage (the entire family) If God brings you to it - He will bring you thru it. Hang in there! I hope Conner enjoys the cards. I thought he would like seeing a picture of Uncle Cliff when he was young. The entire LONG family is praying for you. Thanks for maintaining your website. I know from experience that keeping up a website can be a wonderful thing. (I kept one for my Mom and my husband) It does allow you to express yourself. You are doing a great job. Much love, Wanda I check your website daily. I am amazed at your courage (the entire family) If God brings you to it – He will bring you thru it.

I can't try to, I can't fathom it whatsoever. No one can unless they've been there. I don't know your son. I've seen him once and my daughter's played with him briefly. He's beautiful. I wish we all knew what to say to take some of this pain away, to make you and your family feel even a tiny bit better, but no one can. All I can say is that you're all in our thoughts. You're all true fighters and the love you have shown is truly heart wrenching. Your honesty and the way you have shared your journey is both amazing and so incredibly raw. You're in our thoughts and prayers. Rockwell City is pulling for you and your beautiful little boy. Everyone is. I can’t imagine what you and your family are going through.

Someone told me a long time ago and it has stuck with me. Cancer is a cowardly disease, it hits the young and the wonderful people that should live a long healthy life. Why? Why, does cancer have to be the beast that takes our loved ones away? Love him, enjoy him and remember every moment you have with him. You have done and will do the very best for Conner!!

I cannot imagine the hell that it is to know, before you even swim up out of sleep in the morning, that your baby has this horrible disease. That in your life right now, there is no solid ground. That every time you try to get your footing, it slants again, tilts, turns upside down. Tricks you. And it's not that you just need to stand. You have to fight for your son's life. On this slippery, horrifying, quick-sand ground. All I know is that some things in your life have to stay constant when everything else is sliding down this slippery slope. YOUR family will always be in your corner. On your side. I don't care if you don't hear from us for a few days or if some of us can't find the words at all. We love you and we'll do anything - absolutely anyhting for you. Right now, we're praying. I feel so protective of you. You're a grown man, but I just remember you as a little kid. You were so darling and curious and smart and just so full of all this crazy energy. I remember how pissed I was when I thought you were messing up your life and how you hated me for trying to tell you what to do. I just loved you and wanted the best for you. It was such a helpless feeling. But I remember thinking - I don't care if he hates me. If there's anything I can do to make this better, I don't care if he ever speaks to me again. I just wanted you to be that shiny, happy, kid with the amazing mind and this light all around him. I'm sure if you take that times 6 billion, that's a little bit how you feel right now.Except it's your son and he hasn't done one thing wrong and he's only 3 years old. So I guess it's completely different. Anyway, your rambling has led to my rambling and so there you have it. I love you. We love you. So many people love and respect you and feel for you. You have our hearts. Everyday. Even when you don't feel it, we're here. There are no words for this.

Me and my family are praying and hoping for the best for Conner. Fight to keep your faith and trust that everything will be alright. That is the hardest part of the fight. I lost a son a little over a year ago. We should have lost our daughter but we didn't. We were given very little hope by the doctors. Trust me I know there is nothing people can say or do that really helps. Just know, there is hope and miracles do happen. There is still hope. Don't lose it and don't let anyone take it away. Just realize sometimes we are taken to the brink of disaster only to come out better than we ever were before. Believe me Its not going to get any easier before it gets better. Now is the time to fight like a Junk Yard Dog. Be defiant. Don't let anyone tell you its time to give up. Its never going to be time to give up. Get mad, be mad and stay mad, its ok. Just use it to your advantage. God bless you and your family. You are in our prayers. Thank you for sharing these updates. Me and my family are praying and hoping for the best for Conner.
