Z Mans first blog entry

"It's a beautiful day out. Why did the chicken cross the road? I have cancer and I am not very happy. Why did this all have to happen to me?"

What went through your head when the Dr.'s told you the news on Friday?

"Well, I thought, how could this happen again? "

What helps you get through each day?

Marc says a good attitude and Z man agreed.

"Singing."

What do you like to sing?

"Songs about the Lord".

What is your favorite song?

"Ride the Mighty High"

Why is that your favorite?

" Because I like when they say, Ride the mighty high!"

What else do you think can help you through this?

"Video games and TV and music and love and care, TLC."

What do you think is going to happen next?

"I'm gonna go through surgery and have Chemo again."

Why do you think that?

"Because it could really be serious in my lungs"

Why do you think it is in your lungs?

"Because it could have builded up over a month"

Your scan was clear the last time. What emotions do you feel?

"Worriness and sadness"

So, if you could say anything to someone who was going through a hard time, what would you tell them?

"Keep trusting the Lord."

Why do you say that?

"Because the Lord can do anything for you."

We love you and hope you know that you are never alone. We are gonna go through this journey together. I think that blogging your journey may help you as you process what has happened in your life and what is currently happening. Plus, others can learn and grow with us as we grow through this situation. Does that sound like a plan?

"Yes"

When you came home from finding out what did you tell me?

"I don't totally remember"

You told me that you were depressed but "Look at the bright side, I can touch more peoples lives." Do you remember that?

"Yes"

How do you want to touch their lives?

"By teaching them more about the Lord and that our God saves."

Is there anything else that you want me to type and include in your first blog entry?

"No."

Ok, that is it for now. Hope that anyone that reads this will continue to pray for Z and our family as we walk forward with the Lord in this journey. We need miracles and we know that God can do anything. We place our trust in Him.

  2. Z man i love your attitude. sometimes we don't understand why things happen, but perhaps it happens so others can trust in the Lord. my one year old daughter had a cancerous brain tumor. when she was 1 year and 1 weeks she had brain surgery. was it easy all the time? nope but with God's help she is doing wonderful and one day she will be able to share her story like you do.
    you encouarged me today to look to JEsus and stay focused on him no matter what today brings.
    you have already touched so many lives, more then you will even know. but one day when you meet Jesus face to face he will show you why he took you through what you are going through today and then he will show you howmany people trusted in him becasue if your faith and trust!
    praying for you family.
