Hi everyone, since the beginning of 2013, I've been getting terrible news all around me. Recently my dad's sister and half-brother passed away. My only Uncle from my mom's side is on life support and dialysis after going through a heart surgery, a brain stroke, liver failure, water in his lungs, and a bad ear infection. It's a miracle he's made it this far and I'm not giving up on him but I desperately need your prayers. My Uncle's been nothing but a good person with a smile that lights up every room he steps in. We've come to the conclusion that he was born fragile (which didn't help his ignorance to serious symptoms), he's never smoked or anything. My Uncle's mother is living strong at age 65 after having 10 children (bless her). Also yesterday at school we received news that one of the most nicest, high-spirited teacher's only son passed away at age 22. It's sad to see children pass away before their parents regardless of age. So I would appreciate nothing more than to receive a moment of thought and prayer for my Uncle, the well being of his wife and three children (that hopefully God forbids he leave behind), for the well being of my family and I, and for the well being of you and your family as well.

Like others have already said, you have my well wishes and thoughts without any need for a lottery! I only wish you comfort in your time of need.
My family and I have been having a rough couple of years because we have all split apart from our moving to a new state, relatives getting cancer, my newborn niece being diagnosed with Down's Syndrome, my sister having a tough time with life in general, and well, it's been really bad time for us you could say. So I suppose I could say I relate with you in your problems. I know how nice it is having people identify with your problems, and I definitely know how you feel. Please know that you and your entire family are in my prayers
I would like to say that my one uncle who had cancer, he had Stage 3. That's the stage right before death. He went to the doctor one day and they diagnosed him cured of cancer. They were completely stunned and basically pronounced it a miracle. There's always hope and a light at the end of the tunnel Summer, so I'm hoping that the problems your family is going through will all end soon
Sorry for the long boring paragraphs. LOL. Just thought to say I understand what you're all going through.
ETA: I don't need to be added to the lottery. Just thought to say you're in my prayers
I am thrilled your brother's fought it off!! I really hope I get to share the same wonderful news about my Uncle with you. Please keep your brother smothered in smiles!
Yes, sickness is all around us, beyond usual this year for me. My best friend's grandfather recently had a stroke and got defined as blind. We've been friends for years and her grandfather just happens to get sick now. I don't believe in 13 being bad luck since you can't ever call a newborn unlucky for being born this year, or a newlywed cursed for getting married this year. I just guess my eyes are being widened to the dark times of life.
I'm so sorry about your family and the split, I completely understand how you feel. My Uncle and relatives are all the way across the ocean... so the phone holds the final words of what my Uncle's health will turn out...
Thank you so much for giving me hope, I had completely started losing it... I'm beyond happy for your Uncle and pray that may MANY MANY years be ahead of him!
I give you my best wishes, and take a moment of silence for what has happened in your life. I'm sorry for your loss.
No lottery is necessary.
My birthday is the 13th (not this month) & it has fallen on a Friday a couple of times. Nonetheless you'll stay in my prayers!! The whole Sims community.

Sorry if posting quotes is trite or offensive... Like I said before, I'm really awkward when it comes to serious issues. I sincerely hope that things get better soon. *hug*
I don't mind being in the lotto or not. Whatever works best for you if you carry on hosting one.
It's kind of you to hold a lotto but you didn't have too for this. You don't need to put me down for it. *Hugs*

May God be with u & your family at this time,hugsss to u...
FOOTPRINTS
One night a man had a dream.
He dreamed he was walking along the beach with the Lord.
Scenes from his life flashed across the sky
and he noticed two sets of footprints in the sand,
one belonging to him and the other to the Lord.
When the last scene of his life had flashed before him,
he recalled that at the lowest and saddest times of his life
there was only one set of footprints.
Dismayed, he asked, "Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you,
you'd walk with me all the way.
I don't understand why, when I needed you most,
you would leave me."
The Lord replied, "My precious child.
I love you and I would never leave you.
During your times of trial and suffering
when you saw only one set of footprints...
That was when I carried you."
Just know you are not alone Summer, we are here for you if you need to talk, and I do have someone for the lottery. This person has been a great friend and a joy to know. Its summermistx3: http://store.thesims3.com/myWishlist.html?persona=summermistx3 (you need to take those points and spend them on yourself right now to help take you mind off things).
BIG HUGZ TO ONE OF MY GREAT FRIENDS!!!!!
