My prayers are with all of you.  

I don't know if it helps, but I'm now a 32-year survivor of osteosarcoma.  It was much more difficult on my parents than on me.  Prayer, patience, friends and humor will go a long way.  One of my memories from that time is that Brigg Owens had written a book, Over the Hill to the Superbowl.  A family friend knew Ritchie Petibone, who had all the Redskins autograph a copy, and then he brought it to me in the hospital.
