July 25 - Out too late

I went to watch the baseball game last night with Rachael and my girls, and some other bank employees. My dad use to say you couldn't hang with the night owls and then soar with the eagles. Looking back, that's not as stupid as it used to be. All of that to say, I slept in today.

I mentioned Olivia Mallet the other day. I have deemed her my new "poster child" for leukemia. I have been checking in every day, but I also go read a few more of the older post and continue to be inspired. For example, she played high school volleyball last year, after being diagnosed and is soon to be preparing for the upcoming season. Oh, and for the off-season training program, she had a BMT and beat leukemia. I see an Under Armor or Gatorade commercial in the future.

On a prayer note, please continue to pray for all the folks listed here, but especially lift up Cameron Brown. His mom posted yesterday afternoon that he had relapsed on +118. His story can be found at http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/cameronbrown. I am sure the family can use a note of encouragement.

In my distress I called to the Lord; I cried to my God for help. From his temple he heard my voice
