Ja'Mar,

You went to school the same time I did and gave myself and so many aggies so much enjoyment during those years. The least I can do is pray for Cory and your family after all the enjoyment you gave me every Saturday during the fall semester.

Stay strong brother.

#5.....you are an Aggie legend and will never be forgotten!! Keep strong and just take things day by day. Just like football, somedays you'll make great progress and some days you'll get tackled for a loss. Just like in the old days, keep those legs moving and you will reach your goal!! We will pray for you and your son.

+1 for a plan for financial assistance. We may not all be able to give a lot, but if a lot of us give a little, it's bound to make a difference.

I never knew you spelled his name the same way I spell mine.

I will see what I can drum up amongst some local ags............


I'm a long way from y'all, let me know if I can do something for you from here? I'll even make sure you have a bed if y'all decide to bring him down to get away after his surgeries. let me know if I can do something.

I had my fair share of health problems as a child. Around 10 or so I underwent a major surgery. I remember my dad bought me the black power ranger and his motorbike. I remember another family that I shared a room with while recovering gave me a stealth bomber toy. I remember my mom reading me "The BFG" (Big friendly giant) and my brother making me laugh by drinking prune juice in the hospital.

Family is what kept me going. I know Cory has plenty of great family members. He's not only a part of your family, Ja'Mar, but mine. He's part of the Aggie family, and he has our support, thoughts, love, and prayers.

BTHO Cory's Cancer!

We need to get Ja'Mar some stars so we can send him private messages. Staff, is this possible?

This. I know of a charity promoted by another great Aggie that is closing in on 3 million dollars, the bulk of which has been donated by college students with $5 here, $10 here, $20 there. It can add up quickly. Those who can donate more, should, but if everyone helps with what they can, mountains can be moved.

The bottom line is that a family like Jamar's has more on their plate than they should without having to worry about the finances. It is more than he should have to endure watching his precious son fight this fight.

Jamar, Cory and your family will be in our prayers. Hopefully your Aggie brothers and sisters and other folks can help lighten your burden as well.

My favorite Toombs at Kyle moment:

At yell practice after Bonfire collapsed...he ran across the field and greeted all the guys that had been involved. Truly amazing moment. Never forget it.

Also Jamar, if you would like, you can simply contact your bank, credit union, or other local financial institution and create an account for Cory's benefit. Most do this type of thing often. If you let us know how the account is titled, etc., funds can be mailed, wired, etc. directly to the bank to help your family.


God knows proud men don't ask for help unless someone they care about truly needs it.


Amen. One of the hardest things in life for many of us is asking for help. Let's not make his courage be in vain.

I'm not capable of giving a lot, but I'd be happy to give what I can. I hope TexAgs Staff checks this out and sets something up.

Give staff some time to work this out. Let's try to make one combined effort and make this happen. TexAgs has done some amazing things and this will be the next.

It might take a couple days but let's just try to work together towards this.

the power of prayer is amazing and beyond that there definitely needs to be a donation fund set up for the medical fees and expenses that will then roll over into a college fund after the medical stuff is healed.

Ja'Mar,

Please know that Aggies everywhere will be there to support you through these trying times. My wife and I lost our daughter suddenly when she was just two years old. I would not wish the pain of losing a child on anyone, and will definitely make a donation to ensure that your son gets the best treatment available.

In fact, if someone from TexAgs does not get something set up in the next day or so, I will be happy to take the lead in setting up a donation fund and web site.

Beersnob, hope you knew then that you were not alone and never will be.

I expect Staphs to verify this thread, but even if it is a troll it tells us good things about some of the people with whom we associate.

Help is on the way!

I'm nothing more than a poor college kid, but if you need help with driving your son to and from Dallas for doctors appointments, I would be more than happy to help. Its about all I could possibly help you with, but if you are interested, feel free to email me at rens18@tamu.edu

The Aggie family is large, and we will find a way to help you out!

Thoughts and prayers Ja'mar. We went to A&M at the same time, and I would like to help out if possible. Email me at footballfifty@gmail.com anytime. If someone can get an account going, I will donate what I can.

The Aggie family will help you out always.

Youhave my my prayers for your son and for you.

It is so hard to be strong all the time, but needing help in a real crisis does not mean you are weak--just human.

One of my friends is celebrating her daughter being cancer free for five years right now--so I know this is an enemy that can be beaten.

My prayers now include you and your family. Thank you for being brave enough to come and ask for prayers. Without asking, it's very difficult to receive.

Peace be still.
