some may judge, but we just really just need the prayers. :hp I swear on my life, moms life, anyones life ; lucas is one of the sweetest guys i know. Probably the sweetest.
His birthday was just a couple of days ago. he is not in a gang....i know some of you who will assume that. he is in school, studying to be a school teacher & hopefully a coach at one point, makes good grades, awesome kid ; and my cousin. my aunts kid. young. so please keep your opinions to yourself as i am NOT ASKING FOR THEM. nor do i want them expressed here, there, I know i can't control that, but it would really upset me if i found out. shouldn't be worrying about it, but i just want a prayer thread :) just a quick prayer, and thats all. sorry.

The boy has been harassing my cousin & my cousins girlfriend of like 2-3 years, and things spun out of control ; and the other boy shot my cousin ; one was aimed for Lucas' head but missed, and a second was fired, and hit him in the arm. He is in hospital right now, and I've cried about it. This my family member I just saw a couple days ago, the one holding the pittbull mix with Caiden on his lap ; its not his KID BTW...its his sister, so he's the uncle to that baby. Lucas is just 23 years old. Lucas dodged the 1st, and got the gun from the other boy ; tossed it so the boy couldn't reach it and called the police. He is injured, but I don't think its life threating. we can only pray at the moment. this is the story i was told, from my family ; and the article.


LUCAS (MY COUSIN) DID NO SHOOTING. HE DIDN'T HAVE A GUN, IT WAS THE OTHER GUY. making it clear.

Just keep him in your prayers, as he is the nicest cousin and most kind hearted.

No judgements, my step son did about all the things one can to go wrong,took him two stints in jail .Once he got out he drifted around from job to job,but he is atleast working and trying to make amends so there's always hope they'll turn around.
My step son still makes his mistakes,but he does try,I have to give him that. He doesn't intentionally hurt people but his lack for forthought does bring him grief....

I hope he can turn his life around after this find direction and happiness.

Hang in there for him and he won't be alone and he will turn onto a better road. He can reach those goals ,sounds like he's a bright kid and lucky to have a relative ,not turning their back on him.

Prayers and hugs!

Hey Em....bad stuff happens and often to good people. Prayers on their way for BOTH young men. May your cousin recover quickly and fully and the emotional wounds of him and his family heal. And may the young man that shot him realize this is a wake-up call for what could set the tone for his whole life. May he be smart enough to know he lucked out in that no one was killed and make some positive choices for his future.

Em!

Hugs and prayers going out for you and your family! I've seen first hand how something like this can impact many! I pray for your cousin and the other young man as well. Prayers for speedy recovery and healing ... not just for the physical wounds but also for the psychological wounds as well.

That is scary. You never think things like that happen to real people, but then they do and it is just so unreal. I think it is sad that we worry about people judging us.

I hope that your cousin is OK and that he will keep heading in the right direction.

Lucas is doing okay. :hp I love this picture because it shows his goofy personality everyone loves.
He's in the hospital for now, and thank you for all your prayers :hp

I've had a bad week - and I'm just looking forward to the weekend, apologies for overreacting on the judging. I really didn't want another thread with fighting ; just prayers for this one. :hp

Thank you for all the prayers, I'll update tomorrow - going to bed.


Thanks once again you all are the best

Sending prayers for your cousin, Em - and also for you. Try to get some rest and try not to worry (I know, easier said than done).

Prayers for him coming your way. I am glad he is doing good, by the way he looks great on that picture. Em when things like this happens is ok to be upset, and to react. That's what family and friends are for. You are a great kid and we all know you mean well. Take care and hope your weekend is better.
