Good News about friends son
Hi all, I have good news about the son of my fathers friend. As you may remember he had broken his arm and the DRs saw something suspicious on xray.after a MRI and biopsy , it was determined to be nothing more than a harmless Cyst ! He is only 7 years old so as you can imagine his parents are enormously relieved. I wanted to thank you all for the prayers you sent out to this little boy . God Bless all!
