In his message, he urged the importance of early screening and reflected on what lies ahead:<\/p>\n
I\u2019m gonna have to change my whole way of living basically. And like I said once again, comrades, I urge y\u2019all to go get screened before it\u2019s too late. It\u2019s amazing what they can do now. I\u2019m gonna put all my trust in them now and in Jesus, and I really hope y\u2019all keep praying for me. I really do hope to see you out there soon.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
