Love you PH!

This is my friend Preston. I love him. He's one of those guys that is just downright fun to be around. He's funny, he's charming, he's got one of the biggest hearts I've ever been in the presence of and he's battling cancer. When this picture was taken, we were about to walk up 56 flights of stairs for him during the Big D climb. It's sponsored by the leukemia and lymphoma society. It sucked, I think you might recall me talking about it. On this day, he was in remission.

Last night, I got a text saying that he couldn't feel his legs or see out of his left eye and that something was terribly wrong. My heart stopped because I knew what was probably going to come next. And it came. I got the text that said "the cancer is back". My heart dropped. My eyes filled with tears and I wept for my friend Preston.

Here's what you should know about Preston....he's tough. He's stubborn, and he's going to beat this. But he needs our help. Even if you don't know him, he needs your help. So whether you are a Christian, Buddhist, Atheist, Hindu, Muslim, whatever....he needs your positive energy now more than ever.

While you're at it, you should send positive energy to Mrs.Horton. She's battling a strong, unyielding breast cancer and she needs your positive thoughts too. They're lives are in the hands of their doctors now, but what we can do is stay strong for them and help them through this.
