Update 9/8  Good news!  Janet is doing much better.  She may not even need her walkaide..just some assistance with her walker.  She has been in rehab and should be home soon if not already. 

Update:  8/24 - Janet is back in the hospital again with Clostridium difficile which has caused colitis in her sigmoid colon.  Hopefully she will be out by weekend and back into rehab.  It's been a rough road for Janet and Jeff...there have only been two months so far that she hasn't been in the hospital.  Please keep the prayers coming.

Update:     Received this Email from Jeff 7/12:  Thursday my dear sweet wifey finally got to come home from hospital.  only been in since may 9.  had 2 surgeries and enough mri's, ct's xray's to fill a large book.

Update:  Janet has been in rehab and is working very hard and doing a little better and taking a few more steps every day.  Please continue to keep her in your prayers.

Update:  Spoke to Jeff on 5/20 and received email from Janet 5/21.  Janet had 5 hours of surgery.  She has about a 7" incision and did well thru operation and things look good, but she is experiencing alot of pain.  I tried to call her last night, but she didn't answer her cell.  I will try again tomorrow.  Please keep her in your prayers.

Janet was transferred to Tampa General Hospital for an operation for a very large Hiatal Hernia that has been pushing at her organs and making it hard for her to breath.  It was probably from an old car accident and is probably what has been causing the pneumonia.  Please keep her in your prayers!
