I know I missed publishing these on Friday like normal, but it’s been a very difficult last few days. Long story short my father was performing a funeral Thursday morning when he collapsed and was taken to the hospital. I just returned from the Greenwood hospital spending the morning with him. He’s in good spirits, but it’s not good. He has some swelling of the brain and a very large sized mass in his brain. He’s having a biopsy of the brain performed Monday morning when we will know more. We aren’t certain, but it’s most likely cancer and a very rapid and large case deep inside his brain. There is no need to respond, but any and all prayers would be greatly appreciated.
