Nancy Jones, widow of the late George Jones, is asking the public for prayers and support for her daughter Adina, who was recently involved in a lawnmower accident.
Seeking comfort and strength during this difficult time, Nancy shared her request on George’s official Facebook page. Nancy gave an update on Adina’s condition and detailed her treatment, including surgery.
“On September 28, Adina underwent surgery to clean and debride the wound, unfortunately she completely lost her heel bone and pad. Tomorrow we will meet with the surgeon to discuss Adina’s options in more detail.”
What does the future hold for Adina?
Nancy mentioned two options that Adina is currently considering.
“One. Adina may undergo several surgeries to reconstruct her heel using tissue taken from other parts of her body. However, due to severe damage and missing parts, it can never be driven again. Adina can study the possibilities of amputation and learn to walk with prosthetic legs.”
Nancy ended her message with a heartfelt plea.
“Please keep my sweet daughter in your prayers. “We urgently need all the support we can get.”
The community response was very enthusiastic, with over 2,000 people sending messages of congratulations and support.
The Love Story of George and Nancy Jones In 1983, George Jones married Nancy Sepulvado, which changed his life and career forever. Nancy’s influence on George was immeasurable. In his 1996 autobiography, I Lived to Tell All, George expressed his gratitude for Nancy’s love and rescue:
“No teenage girl loved Nancy Sepulvado more than I did. When I met my future wife on a blind date in November 1981, I had no idea that she would one day save my life. Love can change the world They say it does. I’m here to testify that it changed a person. My friends, family, doctors, therapists and pastors tried to save me but to no avail. But in the end, the power of love from a woman named Nancy Jones brought about change.”
George and Nancy were married for 30 years until his death in 2013 at the age of 81. Nancy fondly recalls those last words in an interview with The Tennessean.
“George said, ‘Hi.’ He said, “I’m looking for you.” He said, “My name is George Jones.” he went He closed his eyes and it was all over.
