Two days after undergoing emergency surgery, “Hacksaw” Jim Duggan has been discharged from the hospital.

An update posted to Duggan’s social media accounts on Monday revealed that he is now out of the hospital. Duggan was admitted last Friday evening and underwent an undisclosed emergency surgery on Saturday morning.

Duggan thanked the staff at the hospital for making these rough few days much easier. He also thanked everyone who was thinking of him or said a prayer for him:

Out of the HOSPITAL!!!

Big Thanks to the doctors, nurses, and staff at the @GlensFallsHosp. You made a rough few days much easier!!

Also, thanks to all of you who had a thought and a prayer for me as we went through this difficult time.

Duggan was even feeling well enough to stop at Five Guys for a burger on his way home from the hospital.

Before his hospitalization, Duggan was honored in Glens Falls, New York last Friday. It was declared as “James ‘Hacksaw’ Duggan Day” in the city, and Duggan was inducted as an honorary member into the Glens Falls Firefighters Association for work that he did as a summer firefighter in the 1970s.

Duggan previously had to undergo an emergency surgery in October 2021.
