I appreciate all the concerns and prayers

I have just been hearing all sorts of things about my health lately and I wanted to straighten a few things out and help calm any worries some may have. I found out some months ago that I have a lung disease that makes it difficult to breathe. That's why I'm a bit winded after worship and cough a bit while teaching. I went to Denver to a specialty clinic which is the best in the country for this disease. We now have a plan in place to get rid of this once and for all. With this plan includes taking me off the med which has caused all the weight gain over the past few years which should take care of my high blood pressure which is the main difficulty with my heart now that my cholesterol is normal.

Now, I know most of you don't care about all the details, however, some have been worried and I want to assure you that God promised me when this first started that I will get past this and be well again. I trust Him. So, until that time, I keep pressing on toward the goal to win the prize. I thank you for your prayers and your friendship. Let's just continue to press on together. I'm OK. Everyone is going through something. This is just what I'm going through at the moment. "It's happy testing time"... Consider it all joy...

See you in church I hope!

Until later,

Don
