For those of you who have been following Jim's Journey, I said I would send my next update after his surgery was completed.
Everything went well, though a bit longer than I expected.  (2 and half hours instead of 1 hour)  We are both thankful this is over and hope this resolves what he has been going through.  Right now he is a bit sore.  He will see his urologist on Monday to remove the catheter and again 2 weeks later for a final check-up.  His urologist is both very good and kind!!

Once again, we both know that a lot of you who are our age as well as those younger have your own health issues.  We wish you well, too!

A HUGE THANK YOU for your thoughts and prayers, ETC.!  We wouldn't even begin to make a list of everything and everyone, as we know Jim and I would forget some of you.

This will be my LAST entry in this Caring Bridge site.

Please feel free to call Jim anytime and here I go again with my one restriction:  best to call after 9:00 a. m.

For all of Jim's Menogyn and IWL board members and friends- he will be joining you again when he feels he is up to it, which should be soon.   (a decision I will let him make, of course.)

Sign me:  A relieved and thankful wife and soulmate
