Up at 3:30 a.m. I really wanted to shoot that alarm clock. Made it to the hospital by 5:00 and surgery was at 7:30.
Jim came through the surgery with flying colors. However, he doesn’t think so yet. He’s feeling pretty miserable this afternoon so I left and came home to take care of the girls. I’ll check on him later tonight.
The surgeon said everything went really well and he was very pleased with it. He actually ended up working on three vertebrae in the lower back and said it was a big surgery. Also said it should definitely give Jim some relief.
I’m really tired so I’ll give you another update tomorrow.
Thanks to all of you for your prayers and best wishes. I know the Lord heard and answered the prayers.
Glad to hear Jim came through the surgery fine and soon will be feeling much better. Prayers for you both.
ReplyDeleteThank goodness it's over!
ReplyDeleteGood luck to you both, I hope Jim's recovery is smooth and fast. :) Take care of yourself, too. This kind of thing is stressful on spouses, for sure!
That is good news. I am glad all went well.
ReplyDeleteYou are welcome...thank you for the call and we are so thankful that the Lord heard our prayers and answered them!! Now you get some rest there girl!!!
ReplyDeleteLove William and Carol
Praying for a speedy recovery.
ReplyDeleteThank goodness, Sandie. Been thinking of Jim all day. He'll be like a new man once the initial pain from surgery is past. I had three done in my neck 25 years ago and it was like being reborn, again. I hope Jim has the same pain relief. Get some rest.
ReplyDeleteSo glad it is over and Jim is on the mend. Prayer continues to come your way.
ReplyDeleteWhat a relief to have the surgery behind you. Now for some speedy recovery!
ReplyDeleteThat's great news. Before you know it, he'll be wanting to go fishing again.
ReplyDeleteI pray that Jim heals quickly and without much pain. And I pray that you will be able to find some peace during this time of stress.
ReplyDeleteI'm thankful that the surgery went well. I'm praying for a speedy recovery.
ReplyDeleteSo glad it went well in spite of the EARLY rising. Here's hoping for a speedy recovery for both of you.

ReplyDeleteSoooo glad he is done and it went well. Be sure now to take care of yourself. Prayers continue for a complete and speedy recovery. Please send our love to him when you see him tomorrow. Love to both of you!
ReplyDeleteGlad the doc thinks it went well. Will probably a while before Jim will notice the difference.
ReplyDeleteThe first couple of days, you are too focused on the trauma of the injury to be objective about the outcome. I am certain that once beyond this near term pain, the overall outcome will be very positive. Hang in there and it will all be behind you..... Rod
ReplyDeleteI continue to hold Jim and you in my thoughts. I'm glad things went well.
