Bob's Niece is near death ! 5 days to live .
« on: November 23, 2012, 08:53:56 pm »

     I feel bad  , She is a nice girl    . Just turned  37  a few weeks ago .

    She has   ovarian cancer that has spread   thru  her body  .

   I never knew her well , but she lead me to believe she was gay .

   Now the family is saying she will never go to heaven because she is evil !

    This really sits badly  with me !   Bob's sisters  did not tell Bob this , They told me !

   Sort of a heads up to me ! ,  You are going to HELL  :o

 I did not tell Bob because he thinks I hate his  horrid sisters , ALL THREE OF THEM !

   I do not understand how being GAY  over~rides   the fact the girl is about to die ! 

    No where to turn ,  Her sister  feels really bad . But  I can not  visit cause  of my gay status ?   

 Just babbling .................. If life means so little that being gay causes a young
girl to go to hell , Then there is no  hope for me or Bob   ,  Not that I buy into
the Bible crap   , I don't !   

 Anyway , I will say a prayer and hope her trip to heaven will be a fun one  :'(

I am sorry to hear about this.  Cancer is awful, and this just makes it more difficult.  We had a family friend who died from cervical cancer earlier this year.  She had just turned 35, I believe.  She missed one pap, and didn't have a family history.  She gave a great fight, but it had spread. 

Sending positive energy her way, and to you guys as well.

Take care!

So sorry buddy, I can't believe these types of situations are still being played out in 2012.  Take of yourself and Bob.
