When you’re 16 years old and living with and dying from cancer, no one would expect you to use the wish granted to you by the Make a Wish Foundation in a completely selfless way. But that’s just what Jeremiah Thomas did. In March, the all-star, state champion athlete was diagnosed with osteoblastic osteosarcoma, a bone cancer that is resistant to radiation therapy and has a survival rate of just 10 percent. With a tumor dangerously close to his heart and two on his spine, his doctors told his parents that it was too late. He was paralyzed from the waist down from the tumor on his spine but it didn’t hold him back.
“I can still preach from a wheelchair,” he said.
Jeremiah had already been speaking out against abortion, joining his siblings and mother on the sidewalk outside of abortion facilities to preach and save babies and women from abortion. He also happens to be the son of Rusty Thomas, National Director for Operation Rescue, an organization that works to expose the horrific practices of the abortion industry and the substandard “care” they provide to women. Jeremiah and his family would visit their local abortion facility on Wednesdays, the day abortions were committed, to minister and to save babies. While his sister played guitar, his other sister would speak to the women entering the facility. His brother would hold pro-life signs and speak to women as well.
“This isn’t planning parenthood; this is the murder of an entire family,” Jeremiah said outside of a Planned Parenthood. “How can a family stay together when they are murdering their own children?”

And Anthony Kennedy announces his retirement a few days later. Coincidence?
Shaking my in disbelieve at the comments left by pro-aborts in the comments section under the article. Very sad.
The timing is quite amazing.
If I may quote Jesus Christ in Scripture: “(Jeremiah) is not far from the Kingdom of Heaven.”.
Even in the face of suffering and death, his attitude is “Thine will be done”.
Prayers that the healing hand of the Great Physician be upon Jeremiah and heal him.
But if it be God’s will he be called Home, Jeremiah will surely hear the most beautiful seven words we all long for, namely, “Well done, thou good and faithful servant.”.
I am not a John Boehner type of a guy, but this did bring tears to this old wrinkled up face. Prayers up for this child, and his family.
Isn’t it funny that a 16 year old can recognize abortion as infantcide and grown up Democrat can’t.
Thank you.
Wow, you're not kidding. There are some incredibly hateful people out there, so sad.
They hate helpless preborn human children, so... hating others is just more of the same.
