Very soon. Chris just washed my leg and foot, cleaned the wounds and applied new iodine patches and a new dressing. Dang leg has taken a turn for the worse lately. The healing process plateaued a year or so ago and now has headed the other direction again. Got new sores on both sides of my ankle and another on my big toe and the water is leaking like crazy from leg and foot. Even my honey nurse is stumped. No blood flow down there at all. Afraid I soon won’t have a leg to stand on.

Jim, I am so sorry that the health issues have taken a turn for the worse. You are a brave, true, and steadfast friend and patriot who works tirelessly (too much I fear) for our country and our way of life.

I will pray mightily that God will give your doctors and nurses the knowledge and skill to implement His healing power.

You rock, my FRiend!

I’m sad to read this post and I pray that God allows you to
keep that “leg to stand on”! You are brave and true and I
wish and pray all the best to you, Sheila and Chris...and John, too!

Keeping you and your family in my thoughts and prayers. Hopefully things will get better soon.

And, thanks and G*d Bless to everyone who helped out with this quarter's Freepathon either with a bump and/or donation.

If we could get more people to donate monthly (which I realize is next to impossible for some people with the sluggish economy we're in) it might help out with not needing so many Freepathons.

Jim I am so sorry to hear about your troubled leg! Mr Ditter is a diabetic and we live in fear of a leg or foot wound failing to heal. Maybe it is time to let that sick leg go, I know you don't want that but maybe your over all health would improve without it. I pray for the best outcome for you what ever happens.

Sending love and prayers your way. You have weathered many storms, and I pray that God will grant you the strength to weather this latest one. Asking our Heavenly Father to shower you in healing light. May He also cover you and your family with blessings for good health and many more years for fighting liberal injustices!

Dearest Jim,

Heart breaking. We'll ramp up our prayers and search for cures that have to be out there somewhere.

Please ask your own doctors everyone. I know I'll ask mine and he's brilliant.

God bless and keep you and everyone here.

FReepers are absolutely the greatest!

Jim, I'm terribly sorry to hear of this bad turn. But please know that I and a ton of FReepers are praying for you and your health every day, and asking Almighty God to guide your doctors to the most effective methods available to keep you going and restore you to better health.

God's Grace doesn't know or care about network ping times or latency -- All that matters is that we're pulling for ya, Jim, from wherever we are!

Jim, I know that I’ve said this before, you can improve your circulation throughout your body with Capsaisin.

Either get used to eating lots of hot peppers, or make a tincture by grinding up hot pepers like Habanero, and soak them in cheap vodka. The longer they soak the better it gets (hotter).

Then just add a couple of eye droppers of the tincture to a glass of water and drink it, several times per day.

But circulation may not be the only issue; your blood may not be absorbing enough oxygen due to low blood ph.
