PTL, Jim was able to come home on his 4th day post-op. Dr. Choti said he was definitely ahead of the game in his healing. He practically wore grooves in the floors of the hospital walking around everywhere.  He is now resting comfortably at his son Jamison's house in Annapolis. He hasn't even taken pain medication the past 2 days. They will stay here in Annapolis until Carole gets her eye shots the last week of November. Then they will head home to Rehoboth Beach. I will continue with periodic updates on his recovery. Probably every couple of days. Jim will return to see Dr. Choti on about the 12th of December for a post-op checkup. Happy Thanksgiving and thank you for all the prayers, they worked. Jim's Bible verse that really helped him through this ordeal is Hebrews 12:1.
