Update on Joe Daniels - 4/25

Joe Daniels has been diagnosed with diabetic gastroparesis which is a fancy way of saying his stomach isn't working the way it needs to.

We all appreciate the visits, calls, texts & prayers! Thank you all so much!!

Update on Joe Daniels - 4/23

Thanks so much for the prayers!"
