Mom's Birthday

My birthday was on Wed. and it was a tough one to celebrate since my heart was so heavy, but joy comes in the morning and I am just grateful to have been able to share it with my family! Grandma Char and Uncle Michael (Jim's Brother) came to visit and brought Cupid's Hot Dogs and Cheesecake! YUM! Thank you to my mom & dad for always being there for me! Thank you to all of my family and sweet wonderful friends, who texted me, emailed me, Facebooked me, called me, thank you to my staff at church who prayed with me, Vicki who made me a lemon cake with the least amount of lumps as possible (a true friend indeed!) Jim loved that cake and ate THE WHOLE THING! LOL! Thank you to my Long Canyon Ladies for their wonderful gift, which I will use soon! Thank you to everyone who made my day a little bit brighter...I needed that! God bless!

A special thank you to Ashlee, Andy & family for sending the awesome candy basket to Vince! What a treat! It's actually getting a lot of use by Jim! He is our candy-o-holic! LOL!

A friend loves at all times. Proverbs 17:17

Prayers & Comments

"Thanks for the detailed update (I am a detail person). I'm sure it's a great release for you to be able to write it all out! I also believe that there are no coincidences. I love that your daughter was comforted by the message on the truck that she saw. God is obviously with you and your family during this really difficult time. I'm so sorry that Vince was in so much pain yesterday, but happy to hear that today is a better day for him. Enjoy your family day together today and get some rest. It sounds like tomorrow is going to be a big day. We will be praying with all our heart for Vince and your family"

"Completely floored today to hear about what's happening with Vince. Jim & Ronda, our family is praying for good news and for a quick recovery. We just went through something similar with one of our sons best friends (he was only in 1st grade!) He is finished with his treatment and he's doing great now! I know how close Michael & Vince are...I'm sure this must be pretty scary for Michael & your daughter to watch their big brother go through. Stay strong for each other. God will look over Vince and your family. Please let us know if you need anything. We're here for you."

"I PRAY THAT IT IS NOT BONE CANCER AND THAT IT IS SOMETHING CURABLE AND THAT THE DR.s FIND OUT SOON SO THAT VINCE CAN BE OUT OF PAIN. I CLAIM THIS VICTORY HEALING IN CHRIST JESUS! IF it is bone cancer... I pray for the best case scenario. I pray in Jesus' name that it is benign and I pray that the bone biopsy, would be smooth and the least amount of pain to Vince. I pray that the safest and most efective of the two ways...open biopsy or a core biopsy would be done and done quickly so the Capaldi family may have answers to many questions very soon.
I pray the best surgeons and doctors would be put in place right now under the direction of God Almighty Himself. I pray that the Lord continues to give Ronda, Jim, Vince, my beautiful Veronica and the rest of the family peace. Love you guys."

"Happy 21st Birthday Vince. Thought the "Verse of the Day" from Biblegateway was appropriate to share with you today.
Isaiah 46:4 ~ “Even to your old age and gray hairs I am he, I am he who will sustain you. I have made you and I will carry you; I will sustain you and I will rescue you.”
I will be praying for you & for wisdom for the Dr.s today. Most importantly, we know that you are in the loving hands of the God of the universe who created you &
HE WILL CARRY YOU THROUGH THIS!!"

"Happy birthday, Vince. I am your mom's friend and have been praying for you mightily as have many of my friends and my church. The Lord surrounds you with His peace and comforting arms"

"May God give you peace, comfort and strength during this trail. We are praying for your healing"

"Happy birthday to Vince and we want you all to know that you are in our hearts and prayers Xoxo"

"God loves the Capaldi Family and nothing escapes his attention. He has a plan and a purpose for Vince's life and will bring it forward as he wills. Stand Firm- do not be shaken. Do not move to the left or the right but stand and wait upon the Lord to move. For it is by his determined will that he will guide our steps and transform our hearts to bring glory to him. So, even in the midst of your concerns, fears, and trials shout praises to him. The Lord will give you the strength to reach down deep in your soul despite your pain and fear to give him praise and yes even trust him like you never have before and to believe his promises that he will never leave you or forsake you and that those who believe and follow him will have eternity in heaven. I will be standing in the gap for my Sister In Christ - Ronda and your beloved family"

"Just letting u know i'm praying for u guys today and Vince's surgery"

"Lots of love and prayers to you all."

"Happy Birthday!!! I'm sure it will be a memorable one. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Just know how much I love you and still think of you as the little guy I took out and locked me out of my van!! I will never forget that, for some reason, you sure loved my van!!

Anyway, just know, even though I'm not there, I am in spirit every step of the way.

I love you, and I hope you know if there is ANYTHING I can do for you, I will. All you have to do is let me know."

I lift up my eyes to the hills
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord
the Maker of heaven and earth.

He will not let your foot slip
he who watches over you will not slumber:
indeed, he who watches over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.

The Lord watches over you
the Lord is your shade at your right hand;
the sun will not harm you my day,
nor the moon by night.

The Lord will keep you from all harm
he will watch over your life;
the Lord will watch over your coming and going
both now and forevermore.
Psalm 121

"Vince strikes me as a fighter, and with the support of his great family and friends I feel confident that he will defeat this."

"I also am praying for wisdom from the doctors, and your ability to discern and understand any choices you may have to be making IF treatment is needed. Most of all, I am praying for that miracle....that the mass is an innocent lump that simply needs to be removed."

"I can't tell you how sorry I am to hear about Vincent. I will be praying for him to recover from this. Please keep me posted so that I can continue to pray for him. I will also be praying for you and Jim for the strength to get through this. Take care."

"I just read your e-mail and am shocked, so I can't imagine how you are feeling. I am so sorry you have to go through this difficult time. I will be praying for him and for your family every day. God bless you and your family. The doctors may be wrong - it wouldn't be the first time! You said 90% chance - I will pray for the 10% chance that it is benign. Be positive and keep your hopes up- I know you always do! "

"I will be in prayer. I will also forward this to the prayer network."

"Just got the email about your son. Please know that we are in prayer! I can't believe he's going to be 21, time goes by so fast!"

"Please know I am praying for ALL of you!!!"

"My wife and I will be praying for Vince, and I will have my prayer group pray as well. As you said
it is all in God's hands, but the power of prayer is a mighty thing. You, Jim, and your family have always
been special to me, and especially you have always been a shining example to me of Christ's love."

"We are praying"

"My heart is broken, and my tears are endless. I have known Vincent his entire life, and I hold a fondness for him like no other. He is so genuine, so likable, and just such a great kid. I love him dearly, as I would if he were my own child. This news has brought tremendous sadness to my heart, and I will pray for him every single day. Together, we will pray for Vincent, and we will pray for your family. If I know Vince, he will approach this challenge in life, as he would approach the most difficult skate trick there is....Like a prize-fighter! Vin will beat this! He will knock it out! His competitor doesn't stand a chance! With his loving family and friends in his corner, standing by his side, he will emerge the victor! And, we will be cheering for him everystep of the way!"
"I will be praying that our Lord shall use this time to draw all your family, all the more close to our beloved Lord's heart"

"I pray for him to know God's peace"

"I am passing this along to the prayer team at SOTH Woodland Hills. They will pass it along as well. There is power in prayer!! Vince is so cute and I am going to be lifting him up every day all during the day. God can do anything..with GOD all things are possible. We will be praying for all of you and my heart is with you now."

ISA 41:10

"Fear thou not for I am with thee, be not dismayed for I am thy God, I will help thee, I will strenghten thee, Yea I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness"
