Update on Don
There was evidence that Don was bleeding again Friday afternoon after being home for a week, so he was taken to the ER at UMMC. He will have a colonoscopy sometime today. After his doctor's visit last Tuesday, his doctor told him to get rest and eat plenty of good food to gain his weight back. Please continue to pray for him as he continues on this roller-coaster ride. Also pray for others that need our prayers. Please continue to donate blood to MBS if able. If not, you can make a donation through our club.
