HOWDY KAT PAC FAMILY,

JUST RECEIVED THIS UPDATE FROM DENISE ON JIMMY BOY! HE'S GETTING BETTER, BUT STILL HAS A FEW TREES IN FRONT OF HIM BEFORE HE CLEARS THE FOREST!!!

YOU GUYS HAVE BEEN AWESOME ON SENDING THE CARDS, OVER 3 DOZEN SO FAR, KEEP THEM COMING & KEEP THOSE PRAYERS GOING FOR THE BIG GUY!!!!

Dear Family and Friends,

After 15 long days Jim was discharged from the hospital today and transferred to a rehab center/nursing home. He has his cellular phone but doesn't always have it turned on but is room phone number is 352-751-2529.

He has lost 18.6 pounds of fluid so far. His legs are way down from where they were when he went in but there are still places that are retaining more fluid than they should be. Christy and Allen were here last week and made sure Jim/Dad got up a couple of times a day to walk in the hospital hall. They were wonderful!!!!!

I am sure that because the rehab center/nursing home is so close to the house that it is making it harder for Jim to be there. Tomorrow he is supposed to start both physical therapy and occupational therapy. Not sure yet how long he will be there.

We have not heard the results yet of the lung biopsy. Will let everyone know when I hear.
pdate on Jim Warner

WOO HOO, OUR PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED!!!!! THE OTHER THING THAT WAS REALLY BOOSTING HIM UP WAS ALL THE CARDS HE HAS RECEIVED FROM HIS KAT FRIENDS -- OVER 50 CARDS SO FAR -- WOW, WHAT A SHOW FROM THE KAT PAC!!

HOWDY KATS,

WENT TO THE REHAB CTR YESTERDAY & SPENT A LITTLE TIME WITH JIMMY BOY. HE HAS REHAB TWICE A DAY & THEY HAVE HIM WALKING A LOT TOO. HE SURE LOOKS MUCCCCCH BETTER THEN THE LAST TIME WE SAW HIM & THE SWELLING HAS GONE DOWN CONSIDERABLY, BUT HIS LEGS ARE STILL QUITE SWOLLEN. HE HAS DROPPED CLOSE TO 20 LBS OF WATER & HOPES TO GET TO GO HOME BY THE END OF THIS WEEK. HIS ROOM IS COVERED WITH CARDS & TODAY IS HIS BIRTHDAY. HE'S IN VERY GOOD SPIRITS & THE CARDS HAVE A LOT TO DO WITH HIM FEELING BETTER!!!!

KEEP THE CARDS GOING TO HIS HOME & KEEP THE PRAYERS GOING TO THE BIG GUY, CAUSE BOTH ARE SURE HELPING!!!!

I'LL TRY TO KEEP ALL UPDATED ON J.W., BUT I GO IN THE HOSPITAL THURSDAY FOR HOPEFULLY MY LAST SURGERY TO FIX ALL THE MISTAKES, FINALLY!!! IT'S MY HUMTY DUMTY SURGERY, YOU KNOW, TO PUT ME BACK TOGETHER AGAIN.

KEEP THE PRAYERS GOING FOR US BOTH!!!!
