Marty:

My heart goes out to both Odie and you as you go through this terrible ordeal together. Odie is a brave, good woman and you're a lot better man than you probably think you are as you stand by her in her time of need. As a Christian, I trust God in all things and I know that even now, He is with you and Odie, even if it may not seem that way to you. I hope you'll call on Him for strength and of course, Odie - and you, too Marty - will be in my prayers tonight - and often in the days to come.

You're right to forget everything and be with your woman now. Jobs, cars, money and all the rest of the things that we chase after and even enjoy at times really mean nothing when we realize what's truly important...those we love and that love us.

Marty, know that you and Odie are in the heartfelt prayers of many people you've never met who want only the best for her and for you and share your pain in some small measure. Stay strong for Odie and God bless you both.

Jim
