Dear Southmoore Family and Friends,

I want to borrow the words of the Apostle Paul: “I thank my God every time I remember you. In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy.” (Philemon 1:3-4)

The last month has been a more than challenging time for my family and me. After several doctor’s appointments and dealing with the “unknowns” and the “what-ifs” we have finally come through the storm.

We met with our urologist yesterday, September 15. He confirmed that the tumor in my bladder was malignant. the great news is that he had already removed it on September 3. We thought that he was only going to take a biopsy of it first and remove it later. That wasn’t the case. We obviously didn’t ask enough questions.

The doctor said he was able to get all of the tumor. Praise the Lord! But also said there is a possibility that more tumors may appear later. I am now scheduled to have a procedure every two months for the next year to check out my bladder.

Judy and I have been overwhelmed with the outpouring of love and prayers from you. You have lifted us up, and truly, your prayers have made a difference. We are so blessed to have such a wonderful church family.

We love you very much!

To Live is Christ,

Bro. Danny and Judy
