I would like all my friends and members to say a prayer for my very good friend Jim.

Jim had a knee replacement 2 weeks before Christmas, replacement went well ????  Then the went to rehab for the knee. He started getting sick and they moved him to Baylor Hospital in Garland (Dallas area)  Jim is now in a medical coma and on a ventilator. He has Pneumonia  and apparently what they call a fat embolism from the knee surgery got into his blood and went to his lungs. Touch and go right now.

I'll keep you posted

Thank you

Gary
 
All my best to your friend, hopefully this turns around and he has a speedy recovery.
 
Thank you

Thanks WaterHole,  Jim is just one of those guys who never meets a stranger, Always funny and laughing Except for some back surgeries  He is pretty much healthy. A few years back we went to their 50th wedding anniversary and there were over 200 people there. Everybody likes Jim and Corla his wife.

Hello my friend.  Sorry to hear.  All the best wishes for your friend and his family.  He will be included in our prayers.  Hang in, he and his family will need someone to lean on at this time.  I know you will be there for them.  Stay fit, stay strong and give them all the support you can.  I know you will.  Hopes and prayers for a speedy recovery.
