Change in plans! The surgeon cancelled his trip. All tests are go.
Surgery is now planned for tomorrow morning.
Will be transferring soon out of ICU to a regular room.
The chaplain stopped in for another prayer. Looks like were ready to go.
Pulse rate coming down. Prayers up!

PRAISE GOD!
Thank you, Lord!
God bless you, dearest Jim!
Thank you ALL for your prayers, and please continue praying!
Surgery for Jim tomorrow morning. We'll let y'all know as soon as Jim lets us know!
Our FReepathon got off to a great start yesterday with 18 Donations of $100 or more and 5 New Monthly Donors, including 1 New $1-A-Day Donor! I mention these Donations because of our Campaigns: Our 300 Club and Our New Monthly Donor Campaign, which I'll describe below.
Every quarter, FReeper I_be_tc, challenges 300 FReepers to match her $100 donation. Yesterday, I kicked-off I_be_tc's $100 challenge with my $100 donation to get things started, so please join me, if you possible can!
It was a big stretch for me, but I want to try to get this FReepathon done quickly for Jim's sake, and I know y'all do, too.
If you send in $100 or more per quarter, please send me a note (in Jim's temporary absence) and I'll add your screen name to the 300 Club Roster! Now, please don't be shy about adding your name. We know you're humble, but seeing your names on the Roster often times inspires others to join you!
Our New Monthly Donor Campaign got off to a great start, too! We conduct this campaign because reliable Monthly Donations are an ideal way to support Free Republic. We already have 3 Very Generous FReeper Sponsors, Tijeras_Slim, upchuck and "somebody", for this Quarter's NMD Campaign! All three FReepers are donating $10.00 for each New Monthly Donor who signs up, so please consider Donating Monthly, if you can reliably do so! $15 a month is 50 cents a day. Please ask yourselves, "what is FR worth to you?"
Whether your donation is $5, $10, $20, $50 or $100 or more, it all helps keep FR alive and will be sincerely and truly appreciated!!
In closing, I know times are tough, unconscionably tough, but for Jim's sake, I'm asking you all to please dig deep and to please dig deep right away or as soon as you possibly can, so that Jim can spend as much time as he needs to recover after his successful surgery, instead of spending 2 months fundraising.
In Jim's temporary absence, Just Amy, (whom you all know and adore) is posting the incoming. She is Jim's life-long, close friend and also his business partner and FR's bookkeeper. So please, let's get those donations coming in! However, with Jim in his own room tonight, we might see him here again too!
We Can Do This, provided We ALL pitch in right away. Please always remember, $25 keeps FR ALIVE!!

Thank you all so very much!!
Thank you all so very much for your prayers for Jim.
Our good Lord is listening. God bless and keep you all and everyone you love.

Prayers for Jim his beautiful wife Sheila and sons Chris and John and his fabulous, caring doctors.
Lord, hear our prayers.
I copied this from another angry poster on twitter...he gives a flavorful definition of Obama so I saved it.....
“SCOAMF compared a friggin’ Apple iPhone to what amounts to Indentured Servitude to the U.S. Government for the entirety of our adult lifetimes — under penalty of law. If that’s not a mark of perpetual abject failure, nothing is.
Each and every time that SCOAMF speaks without a teleprompter to read from, he beclowns himself as the affirmative action baby career victicrat that he has always and forever been....
.... Ultra-thin skinned, barely literate [despite alleged education history], totally reliant on his clown-car cavalcade of sycophants and lickspittles, and completely unable to function outside of his little glass house on the golf course.
Yep. The Marxist sees that image and congratulates himself.
And buuuuump for more donors!
Me too...it’s neat to see Leaders doing recreational and fun things where you can tell they’re really enjoying themselves.
Unlike Obama where it’s all the latest ohoto opt...but who wants to look at him anyway.
Never thought ever I would have such disdain for a President....so seeing BiBi brings my blood pressure down a few notches!
What does SCOAMF stand for? Probably can't say on this forum :)
You’re right...easy to forget this has been a long slide...even so since BO took office it’s like they can’t do their dastardly stunts fast enough...and they’ve locked down , ignored, and ramrodded through anything their hearts desire with NO opposition.
Even with this stand against Obamacare...I just feel like we are still being played by both sides....but have to admit for being Newbees in washington the Tea Party guys are taking them for a ride they’ll never forget...hopefully with some results favorable to us...
SCOAMF = Obama
How’s that...
you’re right it wouldn’t be allowed..not even close.
Bump Congradulations Monthly Donors!
On PBS Nevada Week In Review, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid was asked some time ago.... whether his goal was to move Obamacare to a single-payer system. His answer?
... Yes, yes. Absolutely, yes.....We have to pass it , TAX you for three years while we set it up, and print waivers to see whats in it.”
In one sense, this isnt shocking.... Reid/Obama and the Demorats many other Democrats have often stated that their ideal health-care system is one in which the government abolishes the private insurance market.
No doubt that is the goal and where they will take us if this goes through all the way.
Buuuuump for more donors! Let's get this done as soon as possible so Jim has one less thing to concern himself with as he goes through the recovery phase.
Thank you so much! She’s beautiful!
I need to go to sleep! lol
Buuuuuuump for more donors!
Wow! I’ve never seen that quote before.
