Surgery went well!!

Got a call from Anita around 2pm, saying that Jack's out of surgery and it went well. They won't know how successful it was for a bit - with all hopes, it will be such that it really relieves the pain for him.

It was probably painful to watch - turns out, Anita says, they had to keep him awake during the procedure! So I'm sure he's GLAD that's behind him.

He's being kept overnight, mostly to monitor his heart and things like that. But his heart rate did well throughout the surgery, in the 50's and low 60's - so that's GREAT news. Your prayers are mighty powerful, Friends of Jack!

We'll see if we can update this weekend as he comes home, too.

Hi Jack,
I've been following your blog for the last few weeks. This is Dot Smith Osborne from your Class of 1959 at good old Bay High.
So glad the surgery went well and my prayers and thoughts have been with you and yours. I'm living back in Panama City now, taking care of my Mom.
Hope things continue to progress peacefully for you. Keep us in the loop. Love and Prayers, Dotty

Jack,

Just to let you know that I follow your blog faithfully. Your Baptist Health family prays for you regularly. Davis and Matt were home this weekend, and they asked about you first thing! You know to have Anita let us know if we can be of help in any way.

Suzie and I are thinking about you and praying for you early this Sunday morning. They are spending the week with us while Kirk is in Florida at your old church. We pray for you and Anita everyday. Lots of love and appreciation. Glad surgery went well.

I have a card I'd like to send but do not have their address in Atlanta. Could someone please email their address to me at llftsg@bellsouth.net. I'd appreciate it.

You are in my thoughts and prayers.
