I'm not sure if tvols75 saw my request in the FB forum, but I thought this should be brought over here. I know many here do not venture over into the FB forum, but this stuff makes me proud to be a Vol fan. Please, go to this thread, and read this amazing story.

I hope everyone can rally behind this. Players and coaches are getting involved, and I would love for more Vol fans to get involved, too.

This thread is now a sticky at the top of the FB forum. Peyton Manning got in touch with Jay, and Herman Lathers contacted him to inform Jay that the game on Saturday would be dedicated to him.

Regardless of wins and losses, im always proud and grateful to be a VFL. Jay's story has reminded me, hammered home actually, how fortunate we are to be able to wake up every single day as a Tennessee Volunteer. The acts of Peyton and Herm only reinforce what a wonderful family we have. Like any family, we may not always agree, but at the end of the day we are united.

I pray that Jay gets to see this team take the field on saturday. That alone will make saturday a victory in my book. #VFL

I know not everyone goes to the FF over there, so i figured i show this. This is a quote from tvols75 of what Herman Lathers had to say to Jay. Incredible

Wow, Herman Lathers knows how to hit the point home:


Here is what he posted:


During this tough time everyone pretty much has the same thing to say. But as a former bone cancer survivor, I know what you're going through. As a man of god, I found out that God never puts more on you than you can bear. Jay, you were chosen by God to be a light and a testament to those who have come in contact with you and those who may have just heard your story for the first time. As i always tell myself and I will tell you, Ears have not heard and eyes have not seen what God has in store for you. It may not be what your family or friends want, but God knows best. He's the only doctor that really knows whats best for you. You've suffered a little for everything God has next for you. I pray that as you go through this tough time that you continue to keep your faith in the hand of the Lord because he truly has his hands on you! We will play this game for you this weekend, but we want you to know win, lose, or draw everything will be done to the best of our abilities and with you in mind. Your life has been a journey, but now you're getting ready to arrive at the destination that God wants you at. No one knows but him. The volunteer family loves you man! VFL!!!
