Conrad Thompson: Jim Ross in great spirits following surgery

Posted: Feb 8th 2024 By: Ian Carey

Jim Ross is said to be in great spirits following surgery.

On Monday, Ross revealed that he had undergone another medical procedure just days after having had surgery to address cancer on his hip last week.

Conrad Thompson posted to social media on Tuesday that he had just spoken with JR, who is hopeful he'll get to leave the hospital soon.

Thompson wrote:

Just FaceTimed with @JRsBBQ and he’s in great spirits and thinking he will get to go home soon! His nurses are taking great care of him and his lovely daughter is there helping run point. He asked me to let everyone know the latest and if you don’t mind, throw one up for him!

It is not clear what type of surgery Ross had on Monday.

"Had cancer surgery this morning on my right hip. All went well. Thanks for all your love & support!" Ross wrote on Thursday.

On Monday, he posted, "Another successful surgery hopefully. Need your prayers."

Ross has been dealing with a variety of health issues in recent years, including a battle with skin cancer in 2021. The radiation treatment he received led to longstanding issues with a wound on his leg that has had difficulty healing as well.
