Remember a few months ago when I asked y'all to be praying for Adam's dad's health? After a brutal summer of radiation and chemo, we got some really bad news last week that his cancer has spread. Even worse, it's too widespread and too far along to cure. Mark will still get chemo (a different kind than this summer), but the purpose of it will be to buy time (the doctor said 18 months-ish).
Needless to say, we're devastated by this news. I will try to give periodic updates on here, and Evette (adam's mom) will be keeping a more complete journal at caring bridge (also in my sidebar under "Mark Gentry updates"). I don't know if there's anything else to say, really. We love y'all and cherish your prayers.

Hey Kirsten and adam!!
You son Burke is darling! He really is replica of Adam. I read your blog and also just read about Adam's dad so I am very sorry to hear that and will pray for him and your family.
