coachgat Posted January 12, 2007 Report Share Posted January 12, 2007 I just got the news that an old football player of mine from Middle school in Mississippi is having emergency surgery after doctors just found a malignant tumor on his kidney. He is a senior in high school and a star athlete in football and basketball. Great kid too. Tim Kendricks is his name, please pray that his surgery removes all of the cancer and he is able to continue his dream of playing ball on the next level.

coachgat Posted January 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2007 QUOTE(DevilSpirit @ Jan 13 2007 - 10:53 AM) 826330669[/snapback] I'll continue to pray for him, and I hope you post any updates. I talked with one of my assistants from down there today but he hasn't heard anything yet. Thank you all for praying for him. I'm assuming that all went well and he's in recovery. He's in Jackson, Mississippi. I should hear something today. My old assistant told me that he went to see him last Sunday and he was in good spirits. It's a blessing that they were able to find it. He is a top prospect as a quarterback and in basketball and he had a rib injury during football season and started having problems breathing since he's been playing basketball. They ran some test and found the malignant tumor on his kidney. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coachgat Posted January 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 This is what I just found out about Tim.... Last Friday, doctors removed a kidney and a football-sized tumor. As soon as Kendricks regains enough strength, he will undergo chemotherapy treatments. Vincent Kendricks, Tim's older brother and a former Wingfield baseball player, says the surgery went well and that his brother "is in high spirits and can't wait to get out." This was taken from the clarionledger in Jackson, MS. Keep praying you guys and girls. Here is the link to the article about him and his best friend, my wide receiver in Middle school. http://www.clarionledger.com/apps/pbcs.dll.../701160384/1117 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coachgat Posted February 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2007 Great News! I got the chance to skip down to Jackson, MS to see my former student/athlete and it was really good to see him walking around. He's going through chemotherapy right now but he is in good spirits. They were surprised to see me and it really made his mom feel good to know that people are praying for them during this tough time. Thank you to all, Tim is expecting to play basketball next year at one of the schools that's been recruiting him. He's a tough kid and whether he selected football or basketball any school that got him would be getting a heck of a ball player! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
