David's Health Update

Hi folks, Last month I was forced to cancel a speaking itinerary through five countries due to the fault of a travel agent.(At least that is what I thought) One of my friends said, "Perhaps it's a God thing!" He was right.

Approximately a month ago I noticed a lump growing on my neck and when it got sore I went to the doctor.
What followed was a scan, a biopsy and a more thorough examination by an oncologist. He wanted the lump removed immediately, but they had to wait list me for surgery at the hospital. The date for surgery is Monday, the 11th of this month between 9-12am NZ time. He (Dr. Breeze) has diagnosed lymphoma and told me I'll need radiation treatment as I have other enlarged lymph nodes in my neck and armpits. All of this has happened when I would have been away, so Romans 8:28 seems to apply.

Of course, I still believe in miracles...This past Sunday I prayed for a lady who had already had one breast removed and was going in to have a lump removed from the other. She called me a few days ago to say that the lump which had been examined by four doctors and a specialist had disappeared. She was very happy!

We would appreciate your prayers as we walk through this test.

God bless,

David
