ok.. i found out some very upsetting news today... first of all, for those of you who don't know... my sisters and i take turns babysitting our croation neighbors.. there are two boys, eric who is 8, and darian who is 6. their father, drazen, is a professor at umc and their mother, sonya, is about to move to madison and work at umc once she finishes her schooling in north carolina. we babysit the boys while drazen is teaching class everyday, and while sonya is working in north carolina. over the past few months, drazen has been getting very sick with persistent flu-like symptoms, which is very odd because he is extremely fit, and rarely gets sick. my mom told me this afternoon that sonya and drazen just found out that he has cancer... he had this particular cancer 11 years before, so it's a very bad sign that it has come back. he's about to have tests done to find out more about his tumor... he is such a good person and a great dad, so please keep him in your thoughts and prayers
