A little over a month ago, the husband of my 7th and 8th grade English teacher was diagnosed with a brain tumor, and he went through multiple surgeries and had to stay in the hospital for a weeks. And a couple nights ago, someone hooked him up with some Laker tickets and he even got to meet with Kobe Bryant for a few minutes after the game. Then in today’s Press Telegram, Doug Krikorian wrote an article about my teacher’s husband and getting to meet Kobe, so if you didn’t get to check it out, the article is here.

That had to be a really awesome experience and my mom still keeps in contact by email with my teacher (she came to Parkcrest for a while and now goes to Calvary Chapel in Los Alamitos), but I also want to ask for prayer for her husband, because his brain tumor is very serious and has grown very rapidly. So even though you probably don’t know her or her husband, it’s a very difficult time and I’m sure they could use the prayers, even from people they don’t know.

Here’s a picture of them meeting with Kobe Bryant (click on the image to see it at full size).
