26 is young

I know that I complain A LOT about getting older. I just really do not like it. I do, however, sometimes realize how 26 is not old. My dear friend Megan sent me a link to this blog:

http://libbyryder.blogspot.com/

Libby is 26. She's MY age. She has a 6 month old daughter, Ava. Libby has an awesome husband, Justin. Libby also has Stage 4 cancer. I read her entire blog today and cried my eyes out. I do not know what it is about her to resonates with me so much. I really think that it is that she's my age. We like a lot of the same things and she's sick. She's really sick. I do not know her. Megan does not know her. I'm really not certain how Megan stumbled upon her blog. I am glad that she did, though, because now we all know about it and can journey along this path with Libby.

I hope you'll take time to learn her story and join with Megan and me in prayer for Libby.

Thanks for sharing the blog, Jen! The more prayer for Libby the better. I really want to DO something for her and the family, but I haven't figured that out yet....
