Help Joe Get Knee Replacement

Please help me to bless my brother Joe.  Joe is an amazing family man with a very selfless heart and spirit.  Joe and his wife Cindy are having a very difficult time right now.  On May 15, 2002, both of their sons, Joseph (20) and Andrew (19), were murdered during a robbery at a video store in a small town in Alabama.  They were simply browsing movies and were in the wrong place at the wrong time.  This has been devastating to them.  They were very involved parents who had deep love for their children.  Through their faith and determination, they have managed to carry on with life, but have been faced with many other struggles as well. 

Joe is diabetic and is on dialysis three times per week.   A few years ago, he contracted C-Dif that went septic and had to have his colon removed.  He was very close to dying at that time.   Cindy had to undergo a major neck surgery and is still recovering.  Most recently, Joe was diagnosed with severe Rheumatoid Arthritis.  He is in a tremendous amount of pain all of the time.

It has become necessary for Joe to have a knee replacement in a couple of weeks.  Joe does not have the necessary means to cover his share of the cost of surgery.   I spoke to Joe last week, and my heart has been heavy ever since that conversation.  He is very down, in severe pain, and missing his sons so much. I hung up and prayed and prayed for Joe and Cindy and how I might be able to help them.  

Please consider to donate to help them out.  This would be such a blessing to them.  If you cannot donate, please keep them in special prayer.    Thank you so much.
