Title: Our BayCityJohn had a successful surgery
Post by: Front-Ranger on December 09, 2018, 10:06:07 am

Our BayCityJohn was rushed to the hospital yesterday (December 7) and was transferred to Oakland Hospital for a 5-hour surgery, which was successful in correcting a problem with blood flow to his kidneys. Our Fritz is on his way to Oakland to visit him and will keep us posted. Keep John in your thoughts as he recovers! John is pictured on the right in this photo next to Diana Ossana.

John posted about what caused his emergency surgery. Apparently it's a very serious condition:

Larry is oregondoggie over here.

Good news that John came through his long aortic repair surgery and is resting and recovering. This was a very dangerous surgery and he is not out of the woods yet. Whatever you like to do in a crisis--pray, sing, wave a smudge stick--do it now for John!!
