In November of 2008 we told you that The Myriad was coming off the road to support their drummer Randy Miller who was going in for a surgery to have a lump removed from his shoulder. Shortly after he was diagnosed with an incredibly rare form of bone cancer called chondrosarcoma. Statistically speaking things looked incredibly challenging, but Randy had youth and determination on his side. Starting almost immediately he would begin an incredibly intense season of chemo-therapy; every 3 weeks for the duration of 2009.
Randy was doing so well that towards the end of 2009 he was able to tour with the band for a month long run with Tyrone Welles in support of the Humane Society of the United States. The tumors appeared to be shrinking and it looked like he was heading towards recovery and remission.
Then just last week Randy received the devastating news that the tumors are back and growing. Because of its intensity, they can’t continue the chemo. It doesn’t appear that there are any medical alternatives left. Please join us again in prayer for Randy, his wife Krystin, and their two children Conner and Jillian during this trying time for their family and loved ones. Randy had this to say…
I don’t always understand God, but I have to believe. No one can take that from me.
If you feel led there is a giving option for the family’s growing medical costs set up as well through Randy’s home church The Stirring in Redding, CA. On behalf of the Miller family and The Myriad, thank you for your prayers and continued kindness. Feel free to post your thoughts and prayers for Randy in the comment box below.
i’m so sorry to hear about this! i pray that God will give you and your family strength throughout this hard time. God has a plan for your life, and you can take great comfort in that.
