My brother (Sylvan) is struggling.

My brother (Sylvan) is struggling. He successfully beat cancer 5 years ago but now it is back. He has been undergoing chemo for about 8 weeks now and is having a difficult time. They give him steroids along with each dose but that wears off so he feels good for a few days and rotten for a few and then starts over again. He is depressed and scared although he would never tell anyone. The white cells got low this past week and he developed an infection. He has been in the hospital since Wednesday. Hopefully he can come home in a day or two. Please pray for his strength and courage.....for comfort for his wife....and pray that he can understand that God has a purpose for his suffering. Thank you...
