PLEASE keep praying for @gatewaypundit Jim Hoft, who is undergoing heart surgery this morning. #getwelljim
Jim Hoft is a FReeper who has made a name for himself as The Gateway Pundit by being a bold, independent conservative blogger. For being effective, Jim became a regular target of Media Matters and other leftists.
Jim is also a very nice man who has made friends across the country in his travels speaking at Tea Party rallies and meetings.
Jim has published my articles at times and is always gracious in crediting FR when he picks up stories from here. One of our last collaborations, which garnered a Drudge link, was on the story of the leftist from Austin, Texas who posed as a racist conservative at a Houston pro-George Zimmerman march.
From what has been posted at the Gateway Pundit by guest bloggers and by some who have visited him at the hospital, Jim came down with a nasty blood infection awhile after knee replacement surgery. The infection has lodged in his aorta, from what I've heard, and that is what is being addressed today.
Please keep Jim Hoft in your prayers today and in the future. Thank you.
Prayers up for a safe surgery and good health.
Update On Jim Hoft
Posted by Andrea Ryan on Tuesday, September 3, 2013, 10:49 AM
It would be quite impossible not to have noticed Jims absence this past week and a half. As has been periodically posted and updated, Jims health is in serious condition. He has been in the hospital battling a blood infection and complications from an infected knee replacement. Last Friday, Jim had surgery to remove his knee. The surgery went well. This morning, Jim had surgery to replace a heart valve, which was, also, damaged due to the infection. Jim is in the best of hands and is receiving extraordinary care. But his path to recovery will be a difficult one, and he and his family could use all the prayers you have to give.

Prayer bump
Prayers up
Wow, this kind of thing isn’t supposed to happen with the antibiotics and hospital protocols for surgeries. A systemic infection like that.
Lord God, I pray that You guard and protect the life of this innocent man. Strengthen his body to fight the invading cells and guide the actions of the doctors and nurses so this infection can be fought off and the effects reversed. I pray it in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
I will keep praying.
I join in urgent prayer for Jim!
Heavenly Father,
Give Wisdom of the medical staff and healing for your precious servant. In Jesus Name, Amen
Prayers up for all of Jim’s loved ones, family, relatives, friends and so on. Pray G-d looks after him as he has clearly done for others.
