Update on John Lazares

From Molly Janczyk, January 30, 2007
Subject: John Lazares: update

John is home waiting for news from his biopsy and cultures. The Dr. is to read the reports tomorrow as he is not in office today or tomorrow am. due to surgeries. Trish will call me if there is news from the report as to whether this is or was infection and when John's replacement surgery may occur. Strengthening his bone is somewhere in there.

He is more and less comfortable during the day depending on movement and time for pain meds. He is mostly in bed and moving only when he has to do so. Not time for phone calls to him yet. John is by nature a multitask personality and no doubt will initiate phone calls when he feels good enough. For now, he is just resting and what the report states will probably predict how soon he feels good enough.

Trish has been giving him messages from those leaving them and John was very touched upon hearing that Dave Speas' congregation prayed for John by name Sunday. I have relayed others who have emailed me with messages of prayer, concern, and hope for relief for him.
