It's been more than 10+ years since we were Orientation Leaders at UT and I feel more lucky to know you today than ever.<BR/><BR/>I recently read your blog and am truly speechless- not something that happens to me very often, as you know! I am so inspired by your strength and love for God throughout this process. As I was reading, I found myself asking why this would happen- it seems so unfair. Then, it seemed ironic that I was asking these questions and you were providing the inspiration to put our faith in God.<BR/><BR/>Your sense of humor in some of your entries made me laugh and the realization of your pain made me cry. I'm not sure if there is a right thing to say but I just want you to know that I'm praying for you and your family.<BR/><BR/>Andrea (Elias) DraperAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7775371765200463655.post-84702120628349112262008-09-01T22:11:00.000-05:002008-09-01T22:11:00.000-05:00Doug THANK YOU for posting.

(Doug, I am Melissa's sister in law and I can not begin to tell you how much being with all of you meant to her and our entire family last week.) God is and was in the room. What a powerful statement! We had the most touching service at church yesterday and very much of it was inspired by the writings from your blog, Daniel. You are touching more lives than you can imagine. God is at work-- really strongly. Lynette and Melissa sang at church and you would have been so proud. Hon (My hubby you know!) was so sorry that he didnt think fast enough to record it for you. God was with them during their message in song. You would have been proud. We are so very thankful to hear that the pain is better. Hopefully each day you will become stronger physically and exhibit a decreasing amount of pain. Your MS family loves you and will continue to pray. Hugs and love to all there...<BR/><BR/>In Him<BR/>TammyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7775371765200463655.post-16080410361383647572008-08-31T22:33:00.000-05:002008-08-31T22:33:00.000-05:00Daniel,I heard your story through Rob Ivy and I ju...Daniel,<BR/>I heard your story through Rob Ivy and I just want you and your family to know that you are all in my prayers.

I have struggled what to pray for in Daniel's time of trials and on the day I left I came to a point that it would be for no pain. Before I left I prayed that God would take away the pain and I will continue to pray that prayer. Of course, I will also be praying that if it is in His will that God make a miracle out of Daniel. I know that is what we would all love to see.<BR/><BR/>Daniel,<BR/><BR/>Today I went to church and our preacher who is new to us had such a wonderful message and it was inspired by some of your writings from this blog. Daniel you have touched so many people from your trials and how you keep your eyes on Him, it just is so powerful the feeling I get from how strong your relationship is with our Savior. Everyone needs to remember what Jesus went through so that we might live here on this earth and have a relationship with our Lord, Jesus Christ. <BR/>I'm glad you are not in so much pain and I look forward to your uplifting and inspiring writing soon.<BR/><BR/>Keep Up the Fight!!<BR/>MUHMom2rayray&coltenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14466239700964817450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7775371765200463655.post-42921049504758698392008-08-30T11:12:00.000-05:002008-08-30T11:12:00.000-05:00Beautifully written Doug.

God has been and will be in the room as His children trust Him and walk with Him like you and Daniel are doing. We join our prayers with yours that God will absolutely, 100% heal Daniel of this cancer and end his pain leaving no spots untouched anywhere in His body! We pray God will be exalted through this healing.

Here are the lyrics:<BR/><BR/>I'm a winner either way, if I go or if I stay. I'll still have Jesus with by my side. I'll have a healing here below or life forever if I go.
