    Here is a link to a web site dedicated to Jerrod. I didn't link to the front page, but to a page with a video from Jerrod right before he went into surgery. Please be patient, it loads very slowly, but he wants to say thank you for the prayers. They are removing the tumor now, be strong in your prayers.

    Be of good hope. God has blessed America with some of the best surgical practitioners on earth.

    I love this line:

    From Scott Jarvis - "Doctors have confirmed . . . Jerrod Shelton does have a brain":) (And we all thought we lost ours during the teen years)


    Now to wait until we know if the tumor was benign. But the surgery seems to have gone well. Please keep the prayers coming.

    D, still praying. I also signed up for email updates while I was on there. They need all the support they can get at this point. It's great to know that things are going well, so far. Thanks for the updates.

    Not trying to "butt in" so to speak, but a friend of mine whom I grew up with (he is 58?) is in Houston at Anderson's today. He has been fighting cancer (in the sinus area) for over a year. Thought they had it at one time. It came back. He has lost so much weight and you can actually see how bad this is on him. Has trouble talking and hearing now. Went Anderson's over the weekend. Has developed pneumonia and dramatic drop in bp. They just told us that he will probably not make it through the day. Prayer appreciated. Wife and girls will need the comfort.

    Col Reb, it isn't butting in. We each have friends and family that we care about. The support we give each other is what makes this place so special.

    Your friend, and you, have my prayers.

    I want to take a moment to thank all of you for your concern and prayers for Jerrod. A link to his web site has been provided so those who wish to actively monitor this situation can. Days will pass before we know the extent of the success and the type of tumor we are dealing with, so I encourage you to stay involved with your prayers and faith.

    Secondly, I would like to thank each of you, especially the Mods, for allowing me to keep this in the Den. I know that this isn’t an LSU football topic, but I consciously put the thread here for greater exposure. Your forbearance is greatly appreciated, and I know the Shelton’s have reaped benefits untold from the prayers and compassion they have received.

    You guys and gals are truly the best
