Please Pray for Tank

There are times in each of our lives that rain falls, hard times come and it helps to reach out to our friends and to our God for a little support. This is the place to express those needs, concerns and situations so others in the AAPK family can keep you in their prayers.

Please Pray for Tank

Post by philco »

Folks I've been in contact with AAPK member Tank (Anthony Meeks) and he's going through a rough time health wise right now. As many of you already know he has ALS (Lou Geheregs Disease) and is paralized. Recently he's been fighting a lung infection as well as other issues, and has just recently come home from several days of hospitalization. He's still not back up to snuff and says he's very weak so I'm asking you to lift him up in your prayers.

I don't know you Tank. But God does and He loves you. It's an honor for any believer to intercede on the behalf of one in need. I pray He will surround you with His love, mercy, and grace. Amen.

This is sad to read. Anthony has not had a good hand to play with for some time.

I will include him in my prayers for a quick recovery, it's lonely without guys like him on the forum.

I thought I would update you folks with a copy of the email I just got from Tank.......


Hi Phil. Thanks for checking in. I spent most of December in the hospital. Came home Christmas Eve and had to go back last Monday with complications. I'm home again. I can't get on the forums because the hospital filters knives as weapons and blocks it. I hope you're doing well and of course I don't mind you asking for prayers. I need all the help I can get. Please tell everyone who participated in coffeecups auction until I can thank them. I sent David a thank-you email one day between hospital trips. And thank you for all you do, my friend. May God bless you.
Tank

Thank each and everyone for your prayers and well wishes. I am home for the time being but still have fluid on my left lung. They're hoping it will clear up by itself, if not the will have to draw it off so keep those prayers coming.

Hi tank

I'm not really sure what to say except for what's your favorite kind or brand of knife?
