Short Update ........
When I got to the hospital to see Jim today, John Robinson and notpoliticallycorewrecked were there. As I was leaving, Jim’s brother came by.
Sheila and Chris are there now.
I let Jim know that he has all FReepers praying hard for him. I also let him know that I had been called to another website and found a Jim Robinson thread where many Former FReepers are in prayer for Jim’s recovery. That made him feel very good.
All anyone knows is the surgery is scheduled for tomorrow morning but neither Jim or Sheila know what time.
Jim said he was feeling fine, but he was kinda restless and needed to be moved often. The swelling in his left leg has gone down alot since they put him in a bed. They have him on Morphine (according to Sheila) to control the pain.
I join all of you in prayers for my long-time FRiend.
Thank you.
Amy
Thanks for the update JustAmy.
I’m pinging the Nascar gang to join in prayer for Jim.
O merciful Father, who have wonderfully fashioned man in your own image, and have made his body to be a temple of the Holy Spirit, sanctify, we pray you, our doctors and nurses and all those whom you have called to study and practice the arts of healing the sick and the prevention of disease and pain. Strengthen them in body and soul, and bless their work, that they may give comfort to those for whose salvation your Son became Man, lived on this earth, healed the sick, and suffered and died on the Cross.
Lord hear our prayers. Amen.
Prayers continue!
Some people have the gift of intercession. Others, like myself, just pray and hope (and pray) that we’re doing the best that we can. But, gift of intercession or not, Jim has come to mind countless times today — and I lifted another prayer each time. Multiply that by all the other FReeper prayers being said on his behalf, our Jim is multiply blessed.
Jim: God be with you.
Prayers with you.
Thanks for the update.
More prayers, for a successful outcome tomorrow.
Thank you Amy,just as an aside.Jim unbanned most people which is his nature.I invite them to this thread to join us in prayer.
AMEN! AMEN!
THANKS FOR THE UPDATE.

Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wing... As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness." -- Psalm 17:1,8,15"Hear the right, O LORD, attend unto my cry, give ear unto my prayer, that goeth not out of feigned lips...
