User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Dr. Brookshire is a member of our School of Christian Ministries dept. I just found out that he's been diagnosed with two kinds of cancer (in his liver and in his spine), and that he has blood clots in his liver and leg. His condition is such that the doctors can't give him chemo treatment, and the treatments they can give him are only for the pain. He's a great man and an awesome professor, a real part of our campus family. Your prayers for him and his family will be most appreciated.

I'll try to keep you guys abreast of any developments.

Dr. Brookshire has been placed on life support and the family is remaining close. Please be in prayer for Mrs. Brookshire and their family.

Update: (Later) January 18, 2008

We (the students) just received an email from Dr. Brookshire’s son, Joe, regarding his father’s condition:

Joe
My father's situation has become considerably more serious. Without going through the details, the Dr. tells us he doesn't expect him to make it more than 24-48 hours.


Please, guys-- this is urgent, and terribly important to me and my new campus/church family. Keep them in your thoughts and prayers.

I just learned that Dr. Brookshire passed away this past weekend; the funeral will be this afternoon. His family, and we at the SCM, will appreciate your continued prayers.

Thanks again, Lithanus-- it means a lot to us.
