Ken Mac Request

As regular GVDP readers know, I am not a group hug kind of guy. But today I am asking for your support. Tomorrow, Thursday, between 11:30 and 1:30 EST, I will be having surgery to remove a small tumor from my bladder. We caught it early and all signs are good. Please send prayers/positive thoughts my way during this time.
I am confident my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ will deliver me and restore my health.
Thank you friends, and see you next week! --Ken Micallef

Best wishes and prayers Ken. As a 25 year and four time cancer surgery survivor I can relate to your concerns. Early detection is the key.
I hope everything works out just fine for you.

Ken Mac. Your swagger has followed you across the decades, from this young guy in today's post to the Bogart-looking adult in your profile. Surely, you, along with your grand earthly adventures and great photography will be with us for many, many more years.

Here's to you fellow blogger! Be strong!

Hello Ken,
You may remember me with the blog "Iranian Kitchen". It is a while I start to write again after some busy months. Now I came here to invite you come there and read, but I knew that you had a surgary. My prayers are with you. I look forward to your comments and visits on my blogs ;)

We believe in Manx Fairy magic my way. I waved to them at Fairy Bridge and left a note for your safe, successful surgery and speedy recovery. They never refuse if you ask nicely. I'll come over and kick you that tumor's butt virtually if I have too. I'm not group huggy either but today I'll make an exception and cross everything I got. Blogland needs you with your honest photography and dialogue. All the best.

EV Grieve said...

All the best to you, Ken.... Looking forward to more photos!
