I have been trying to get in touch with Joe by phone and email and haven't heard a word from him. I am really concerned about him. If anyone has spoken to him in the last few days can you please email me and let me know he is okay. I am really concerned because I know he has had a rough time. Joe....if you read this, I am praying for you buddy.

I just received a call from Joe. He really had a rough time with the 2nd surgery and almost didn't make it. He had to have a "j" tube in his stomach for drainage which has to stay about 2 weeks. He is very weak and cannot sit up for long. The Doc says he will be out of work for about 12 weeks. The good thing is he is at home where he can rest more comfortably. Please continue to pray for Joe for a speedy recovery and send him your thoughts and well wishes.

I spoke to the hospital on Monday and they told me that Joe has been discharged. I have not heard from him yet so I am not quite sure how he is feeling but they told me that he did very well his 2nd time around. I assume he will give us an update in a few days when he is feeling up to it. Please keep him in your prayers.

Hi Joe, I am so sorry that you had to under go a second surgery. I can't begin to imagine what you must be going thru. I pray that everything works out for you and that you go home soon.

I just called the hospital since I haven't heard from Joe and they verified that he was readmitted to the hospital and he is in surgical intensive care. I spoke to the nurse who is taking care of him and they said they took the NG tube out this morning and he is breathing fine on his own. They will probably move him to a regular room in a day or two as long as he continues to do better. Please keep Joe in your thoughts and prayers as he goes through this ordeal once again. For those of us who are post-op, we already know how difficult it is to go through it once, but then to have to do it again, that is rough. Thanks for your support and encouragement.

Hi Joe, just want to let you know my prayers are with you. If you do have to have surgery again, try to be strong and once its done you will feel so much better. This was my biggest fear when I had my surgery, and that was to have to have the surgery again once it was done. It has to be better then vomiting all the time though and just remember you will have that first crappy week and then be on the mend to enjoy life. Try to stay postive and know we are all saying prayers for you. Cindy
