Confirmed flight for Seth. Arriving in SLC tomorrow.
He's currently in Tegucigalpa, Honduras. He can't fly out of Tegucigalpa because this would mean an overnight stay alone in Dallas. An airline in Honduras has donated three tickets to fly him, my aunt and my cousin to San Pedro Sula, Honduras. They fly to San Pedro tomorrow where my uncle will be waiting with a nurse and oncologist that will assist in administering IV pain medication and whatever it is that they use to give him nutrients as he's no longer able to eat. Afterwards, they will put him on a plane that will take him to Miami, Dallas and then SLC where we'll be waiting for him.
We're trying to make arrangements to have someone fly to Miami to meet with him but the airlines here aren't being very accommodating in lowering the cost of airfare, they don't view this as a true emergency and tickets right now are about $1300. I don't understand how an airline in a third world country can donate three tickets and yet American Airlines, Delta or any of the other major airlines here are incapable of offering so much as a discount. Lets see what it takes to arrange a wheelchair for him. Hopefully they give us that much!
In any case, God willing - he'll be with us tomorrow.

Some say there's a reason for everything, but I don't believe that.
Some things are just confusing, unfair and painful.
Our prayers and thoughts are with your family.
Let us know if we can do anything more than praying.
from the bottom of my heart.... thank you...
