Update on Ross Purcell

Carol called me this evening – Friday. Ross is scheduled for surgery tomorrow morning at 8:30a. The purpose is to take a biopsy of the mass they found. They cannot remove the mass because it is involved with major blood vessels. They could not do a biopsy without surgery because of the location of the mass. The surgeon today gave Carol a lot of hope. Once the biopsy reveals what kind of lymphoma Ross has, they will likely begin chemo treatments.

Ross will be at St. Agnes at least through the beginning of next week. They greatly appreciate all the prayers. They had many visitors today from Trinity Baptist and SCAMP.
