Jim Ross Reveals Recent Issues With His Health In Latest Blog On His Official Website

Written by Richard Gray on Apr 6, 2008 - 4:24:30 PM

Jim Ross has posted his latest blog entry on his official website. In it, he reveals recent issues with his health. JR wrote:

Sometimes my timing isn’t so great. I felt somewhat poorly during the WM24 weekend and attributed it to just getting over a 3 week bout of the flu. In hindsight, I should have taken a week or two off prior to Wrestlemania to insure that the flu had subsided, but I didn’t.

While in Orlando I started having colon problems again and began to lose a great deal of blood. But as the old saying goes, "the show must go on" and as I was once told, " a man can be sick at work just as easily as he can be sick at home" so I kept my issues to myself and went about the task of doing my job. This Friday I spent the majority of the day in the hospital here in Norman, the same hospital that removed 13" of my large intestines in 2005, along with a benign tumor off my colon. Friday was like a day at the beach compared that ordeal in 2005, as Friday I underwent a thoroughcolonoscopy and had 3-4 non-cancerous, thank God, polyps removed. I dodged another bullet. I told my friend Kevin Wilson, the offensive coordinator at OU, that I was blessed with "Sooner Magic" and after a couple of days of rest I plan to be on the airplane Sunday night headed to Albany, New York for Monday Night Raw. I wouldn’t have it any other way.


Jim Ross went on to talk about the gift that Shawn Michaels bought for Ric Flair, the Hall of Fame inductees getting rings, and more. Click here to read his full blog.

Richard Reacts: Wow, I had no idea that Jim Ross had these problems going into WrestleMania. I knew that he had been sick (from previous blogs) but I had no idea of what magnitude. I certainly wish Jim the best and hope that his issues are under control. You have to give it to JR for continuing to work.
