Football aside, man I'm glad your son is doing well... He's in my prayers man, good to see that Mr. Staubach touched your lives as I'm sure Luke did for his.

As cool as it is that Roger signed that for your son, and it truly is a very cool thing that he did that, I'm more interested in telling you that my prayers are with you and your family. As a father of two children I can feel the pain, and fear, that you guys must be going through in a trying time like this in my own heart.

May God bless you're son and your family during this time.

God bless your son and your whole family. I will pray for him. Roger has always been my favorite Cowboys player of all time and he has always been a classy man.

I raised two daughters and something like this would have scared the wits out of me. Best of luck to him.

That is very inspiring for your son and I know that somehow that little gift will help him through his ordeal. I will also give prayers for your son and the rest of your family. Hang in tough...all things are possible through faith.

I read this forum every day but I rarely post but I am a huge Cowboy fan just like the rest of you. I felt that I had to post to this story.

This story touches me because my son in September of 07 was too diagnosed with a brain tumor a Medulloblastoma that was located in his Cerebrum. His operation went amazing and had the tumor removed 100% but the biopsy showed it was cancer. My son is in the chemo stage of the treatment but it has been pretty tough on his body. I read this and and it let's me know that I am not alone and your story helps me understand more and more how we have to appreciate every bit of time we have with our loved ones. He too has been given an uplift but from Lance Armstong who found out about my son and sent him an autograph jersey and book. That one gift made my son feel the best he has felt since September. There are some good people in this world that reach out even tho we may only hear the negative.

My son's favorite team is the Cowboys and he says once he is well again that he wants to go see that first Cowboys game in the new stadium. I am counting the days to give him his next wish.

I will pray for your son because so many people praying for my son has made a difference. I believe there is no greater power then power of the prayers! God bless you and your family.

Thanks for sharing your story too.

It will be a very exciting day for him when he is at the 1st Cowboys game at the new stadium.

I'm glad the operation was successful and hope that the treatment will be also. I'll include Joshua in my prayers.

Look forward to his opening many, many other gifts.

Luke picked a good legend to admire.

And let me add that the girls in his life will be helpless against that smile of his.

Thank you for sharing this...I'm so glad to hear that the surgey removed the tumor and that he's on the road to recovery. It is such a nerve racking time when they are under...we had the biopsy and that was the longest three hours of my life. I can imagine the time you spent waiting for them to finish the surgery was very difficult.

I know Chemo is tough on the body...hang in there, because when you are done he has WON. We were in the hospital last week for three days because he got a fever...well while we were in there they were having a last Chemo party for one little girl that was on her last treatment...it was very exciting.

Hang in there...I will pray for his full recovery!

Thanks for reminding all of us what is truly important. I have prayers for your family. I wish some of the current Cowboys would catch wind and send him some more souvenirs....

I am not sure if I copied and pasted right but I am giving it a try. First, I would like to thank all of you for the kind words and prayers that are coming our way. That means so much to us and that is all HE has ever asked for from anyone.

Surgery was the longest 5 hours of my life as well and I understand completely what you are going through each and every day. I just wanted to respond and let you know that if your son EVER needs someone to talk to because he is scared please let us know and my son would be willing to do to talk to him and see if that would help. Sometimes my son has a hard time talking to us because he does not feel that we really know what he is going through and I am sure your son may feel the same way. If he does my son is a good pep talker and has been very positive about the entire process. Just PM me and I can give you my email address or phone number.

And on another note: I hope I actually may get the nerve to actually talk Cowboys in this forum but I am still not sure that I carry the knowledge that you guys have on the subject. I love reading your guys point of views and my son reads this with me sometimes. We laugh because we think we are the biggest Cowboys fans then we see some of the information you guys have and realize we are just one of many to love AMERICA'S TEAM!

Please do. Joshua too. All views are welcome. Some catch a little heat. Nothing like what you both have already conquered.

Don't worry. You couldn't possibly be any worse than eduncan, nors, or nathanlt. :D Seriously, the more posters, the better.

Yeah, we are pretty awesome.
Hey, don't worry you may not know what you are talking about.
I can vouch that almost anything that pops into our pointy little heads is grist for this forum.
You don't even have to think while posting, i can vouch for dat.
For example, you can start out a post using these templates:

Roy Williams sucks and i hope . . .

Wade Phillips sucks and one of these days . . .

Is Jerra off his rocker????? , , , ,

I think we should give up ALL of our draft picks for McFadden because . . . .

I am painting likenesses of Cowboys legends on hard-boiled eggs and I wanted to know . . . .

Hey, this guy Zach is the greatest player in the NFL because he's a leader and . . . .

I feel we should rename the Zoner to the Sean Taylor Zone . . . .


What is Ellis' beef now????? Why, Jerra oughtta . . . .


Simple.
Feel free to post anytime. :)
