Re: Captain Eddy of Radio Airplane

The latest update I saw about John. My thoughts and prayers for JC and his family.

Here's a the latest post from Jim Caldwell....
from about 5pm today...

Update on John Cruzan. I just returned to Joplin from visiting John at Mercy Hospital in Springfield. John is still in ICU and unconscious. We talked to John a lot during the visit and when you talk to him his blood pressure goes up and he tries really hard to open his eyes. I truly believe that he can hear us. They really don't know the extent of the damage that was done the five minutes when his heart was not beating and he was not getting oxygen. Time will tell. They are not really sure why his heart stopped but could possibly be the stress and trauma along with sleep apnea. If he is stable enough he will have surgery on his left arm tomorrow to repair the break and then hopefully soon get a trach and a feeding tube in. Hopefully he will be stable enough sometime in the next week to move to Landmark Hospital in Joplin. Please continue to pray and thank you so much for your prayers! The family really appreciates the outpouring of love and prayers!
