Michael (The Haggard) Haggard could use your prayers..

Michael Haggard (The Haggard - maker of "Albion Rising" and Star Trek paper kits) posted this:




Hello Church Family.
Some of you have been praying for me because of my headaches and memory issues. I have a new prayer request for you. Especially for 2:30pm tomorrow. (Friday March 20th)
Tonight my headache was unbearable so Sandy took me to the ER. There, CT scan was ordered and the doctors found that I have a large brain tumor. Tomorrow, I will go back to Chanute hospital and they will perform an MRI to get a better picture of the tumor and then consult with brain specialists about the next step.
Believe it or not, I am at peace. I was praying that God would allow them to find something, rather then leaving the ER with inconclusive results. I have been losing memory and having great trouble concentrating. Now I know why and have a thing to pray against! God is good.
Now, I will be on some medications that compromise my immune system and that will make it more important for me to remain diligent in avoiding the flu and other viruses.
Some of the issues of memory and confusion may worsen at times. I may soon have to give up driving as well. I will continue to be your pastor as long as I am able and as long as the Lord wills it... and by his Grace that will be a long long time.
Please pray for the doctors and their skills and wisdom. Pray for Sandy as she has a much heavier burden than I do at this time.
I will keep you posted with information as I get it. Thank you! -Michael

I've visited with Michael a couple times when I was in Wichita for business. Very enjoyable conversations and a great meal at one of his favorite Wichita restaurants.

Since reading this news, he has been forefront in my mind. I wish him well and have been keeping him in my thoughts and prayers.

Greg

I wish there was more that I could offer than my thoughts and prayers. I pray for the best outcome for Michael and his family.

Since he is quite open with his condition, and I am friends with him (mainly on facebook) I thought I would provide an update.

He is in remarkably good spirit (at least online) and has named his tumor "Dinsdale". He has openly shared his experiences and challenges.

His condition is terminal. He seems at peace with his fate and his faith is providing him comfort. He is looking forward to the afterlife and hopes to see his recently departed companion Stuart Ho (his Shiba Inu) on the other side, in addition to meeting God.

Regardless of your beliefs, please keep him and his wife in your thoughts and prayers during these upcoming and current uncertain times.

He has continued preaching and intends to do so until he is no longer able to do so. If interested, he has been posting his weekly sermons online. One access point is through the First Christian Church of Erie (Kansas) facebook page.
