Lexi, I'm sending my best good thpughts, momma style, for your son. I bet he's going to come through this with even more strength than ever.
I'm sorry for this , as I know it's not what we ever want....to have the rug pulled out. But as you said, something even better may be waiting.
It sounds like he has much good experience under his belt, and that he's going to be a wonderful employee for someone to grab up!
hugs....
