Could all of you please include Royse City High School varsity baseball player Jake Owen and his family in your prayers?
Tuesday night while playing in a varsity game vs. Greenville Jake and another teammate collided while fielding a popup.
He came out of the game and was sent to the hospital to be checked out because he had pain in his spleen area.
The Doctor discovered he had ruptured his spleen and while doing blood work to prepare for surgery they found that he has Leukemia. Jake and his family are still recovering from the loss of his dad in February.

GO DAWGS!

Swami - thanks for reporting that. That is a hopeful message. Ironically, baseball may have saved this kid's life!
The prayers and support are awesome. Jake and his family has shown such great faith and courage through these tragedies. Please continue to pray for their peace and healing. I would also like to say that I am so proud of his teammates and the support they have shown. They have truly bound together to show their support. Wins and Losses aside, kids like Jake Owen and his teammates here at RC have shown me what a blessing it is for me to be where I am. Coach Wolfe
I'm adding my prayers for Jake and his family! That he will receive healing, and the whole family will have "the peace that passes all understanding" through this entire situation. I believe the drive that makes Jake a successful baseball player will help carry him through this!

Welcome Coach 'Wolfepack'! I know your post means alot to Jake and his family.

WAG!
My wife received an email this morning from her God-Mother in Texas regarding the story in the Dallas News. I had a feeling that there would be something here on the HSBBW regarding this story. Jake is apparently the great-nephew of my wifes God-Mother...and BTW, I have no doubt that Jake's late dad was looking out for him! Our thoughts and prayers go out to Jake & his family.
