Pacemaker update #1

In keeping with true OR time, Jackson just went down for his procedure (around 5:20 pm). Their hope is to "clean out" his pacemaker site but to see if they can salvage the current site and pacemaker. They are going to place a device right in the same area to deliver highly concentrated antibiotics straight to the infection site. They are doubtful this will work. Most likely they will remove the old pacemaker in a few days and implant a new device. This would be more invasive, so they want to at least try the less invasive first. We are so grateful for a fantastic surgeon--highly skilled and warmly compassionate. Thank you for your prayers.
