    Fellow skybox members.

    One of my dearest friends is in need of a Miracle. Sgt Brett Garmon who was stationed here. This marine is like my brother and his parents are like parents to me. They treat me like I'm thier son. They have sent holiday greetings, invite me to come up for the weekend etc. Sgt Garmon was deployed to Iraq recently. We stayed in contact all the time. He called me on sunday and said his mom was was rushed to the hospital. She was suffering from painful migrains. She had surgery after a ct scan showed a tumor and after they removed it she was fine after that. In recovery she went into a coma. They went back in and found out she has brain cancer and isn't expected to live much longer. The Marine is home. he got home yesturday and is with his mom as we speak. please pray for this Marine and his Family!! Today is Sgt Garmons Birthday.

    With you Gort
    When I began to read you post, I assumed that it was the soldier who was in medical trouble. Hope things work out for the best.

    I'm sorry to inform you all the Mrs. Garmon passed yesturday afternoon. She was an outstanding woman and a good mom to her children and to me even though I wan't her child she treated me like I was apart of the family. She will be forever missed please keep his family in your prayers. I will be leaving Fort Leonard Wood at noon today and head up to IL to be with Brett and his family. He thanks you for you support.
