Our Thoughts and Prayers

Amidst the hustle and bustle of the weekend, we have had a sad thing happen. John's wife Michelle stayed home in St Louis over the weekend while John and Ryan came out here to go to the sealing. They arrived late Thursday night. On Friday they spent the day with Tyler in Logan at Utah State. John got a call Friday night that Michelle had a seizure and they had taken her by Ambulance to the hospital. While in the hospital she had another seizure. John at that point decided to go back to St Louis. Tyler, Ryan and John left Saturday morning. After a few tests it has been determined that she has a tumor the size of a orange in her frontal left lobe of her brain. It is called Oligodendroglioma. The plan currently is to have surgery this week and remove about 75% of it and then chemo and radiation. Please add John and his family to your prayers. We are hoping for the best, and praying our hearts out.
