Just Do-Rag-it


My good friend called and was very sad. Her teen son has a brain tumor that has started to grow again. He's had specific radiation, but now he is weak and his hair is falling out. We cried, we prayed, we started talking about how he doesn't want to wear a ball cap. And then I got an idea. What if we have him start a business selling what he'd wear, a do-rag with some mark of brain tumor support, a grey ribbon. He could do this via a laptop and a phone. Starting a business is exciting, gives us hope, something positive to focus on, a way to help other teens, can sell at the brain tumor conference. Hope: can't imagine living without it. If was living, it would seem flavorless. Jeremiah 29:11 - For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
