Uncle Si Of โDuck Dynastyโ Shares Update Following Lung Surgery
on Sep 09, 2022
Uncle Si of Duck Dynasty has faced his fair share of health problems over the years. Heโs undergone open heart surgery and has experienced breathing issues. Thatโs why it was extra concerning when he contracted COVID-19 in February 2021.
โ[Si] shared with us, he thought it was the end,โ Siโs nephew, Willie, relayed on an episode of his familyโs Facebook Watch show At Home with the Robertsons. Were it not for members of the family really being with him and encouraging him, Iโm not sure he would have made it.โ
But Si pulled through, although he remained on oxygen for a little while.
In June of this year, Uncle Si shared he was getting prepared for lung surgery. He shared this information in a post on social media, saying:
โI had some tests in Houston. There are a few more things we have to do, but it looks like Iโm approved for lung surgery. Then Iโll be able to talk your ears off with even more stories, all guaranteed to be 95% true!โ
Si opened up about his then-upcoming operation in episode 138 of the Duck Call Room podcast. The episodeโs description on YouTube read, โSi is gearing up for lung surgery, and heโs absolutely fascinated by the procedure.โ
Si underwent surgery at the beginning of September. He just shared an update on how everything wentโฆand it sounds like all went well!
โThe doc says surgery went great. Iโm ready to get back at it, Jack!โ Uncle Si captioned a picture that shows him resting in his hospital bed. โThanks for all the prayers and support. It means the world to us.โ
