    Hey guys, I'm not sure many people know him, but a close friend of mine who goes by Bumblebee3 (here on the boards) has taken a turn for the worse in his battle with Cancer. His name is Billy Gonzales and he was recently diagnosed with Mantle Cell Non Hodgkins Lymphoma. He is just 34 years old is kinda young for this diagnosis, and Iis also a proud husband and father of 3 wonderful children.
    He is in a lot of pain right now and is fixing to undergo a surgery and because his platelets are so low, the surgery is very high risk. Billy is a great friend and his family is going through alot at this time. I hope I am not breaking any thread rules, but I thought I'd extend an invitation for any prayers for him and his family here... Thank you all...

    I'm not big into prayer, but I wish him the best.

    I lost my little brother to cancer earlier this year. It's hard. I hope he pulls through.
