Journal entry by Aunt Susi Murphy —
Morning everyone. Time flies doesn't it! Jim is due for his 2nd surgery on May 21 -1pm at university of Chicago. I spoke with Jim yesterday. He's hopeful and excited and nervous at the same time. I think we can all understand that.

The surgery coming is to improve facial features, including ability to open mouth a bit wider for speech improvement, shape jaw and cheeks and hopefully enable him to eat soft food. He's been working hard on his speech and we had a good conversation and some laughs...something about his mom's foot not being able to reach his rear..🤦♀️🤣.
Please pray for Jim, his brother Keith's strength as he's holding people up and it gets heavy, his mom Diane as she assists Jim everyday, his sister Shell as she struggles with what happened, his kids Jimmy and Keri that they support him as he goes through his changes, the Dr's for excellent reconstruction skills and most of all that we continue to have strength and hope.
Thank you prayer warriors. Prayers have been answered and we ask you to keep lifting them up!💕🙏🌈 https://gofund.me/3ccd0bc9
