Surgery is now planned for tomorrow morning.
Will be transferring soon out of ICU to a regular room.

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!!

Prayers for Jim his beautiful wife Sheila and sons Chris and John and his fabulous, caring doctors.
Lord, hear our prayers.
Great news.
I understand fully....Christians seem to have their own extreme ways...I guess it depends on the emotion of the heart at the moment.
I don’t jump around in church etc....but have been know to do take a leap of joy here at home, before the Lord, when He does a great work! It’s fun and I know He enjoys me then as much as I’m enjoying Him!
:)
CONGRATS TO JIM, Keep healing!
"When the representative body have lost the confidence of their constituents,
when they have notoriously made sale of their most valuable rights,
when they have assumed to themselves powers which the people never put into their hands,
then indeed their continuing in office becomes dangerous to the state,
and calls for an exercise of the power of dissolution."~Thomas Jefferson

Just landed and checking in for an update. Great good news.
Yea...that was great....the creep Democrats keep on lying and nobody fights them on it. This was great to see and hear...hopeful more will do so because they are weakening!
HArry reid said ... what gives the House the right to determine what is paid or not....on the Senate Floor no less...and not one person called him on that!!!! I was livid! This was on the Senate floor!
Ping to 918, life is good!
I don't go to a brick and mortar church. We meet as the early church did, in each others homes. No light bills, mortgage, salaries....that frees up a lot of money to help others that need it. Most churches are too busy supporting themselves.
I was kind of worried about him *stroking out* towards the end.
Got to give Hannity credit, he pulled off the gloves and went bare knuckle.
And these......go to you for standing by at such a time as this...A thank you hardly seems enough for representing us all but I thank you just the same...
Thank you for the ping.
Thanks! I bookmarked that site.
Sean has been on a tear lately on his radio show. Although he is not a registered Republican but registered conservation in NY, he has had it with the GOP.
And so have I and many others probably.

Perfect!
Sweet! Just Sweet! Can’t think of more to say but Sweet!
