Default Here we go again

I figured I make this a brand new thread. Tomorrow, Tues Sept 22nd.. i'm finally having surgery. For those who don't know ive been in and out of the hospital the past 2 months in this intense horrible pain, picc lines, dilaudid 2mg every 5 hrs, the works.

There's many options they are considering doing and I wont know until I wake up what they have actually done. That is some scary shit. Anything from just simply fixing the narrowing behind my colon to reversing my RNY. I've got the chief of surgery and my amazing surgeon working on me, so I couldnt ask for anything more. Mom will be here by 630 am and as we speak i'm doing the magnesium citrate cleanse. .

Tomorrow at 8am, is hopefully the beginning of the end. I just want the pain to go away and to live a normal life. I will update you guys as soon as I know something tomororw, or i'll probably text Kel (Mistymee).

You already know this...but I'm thinkin of ya, and of course hoping for the best...whatever that may be for your health. The past several months has not been a good quality of life for you, and it just shouldn't be that way. You've worked hard and been through a lot to improve your quality of life, and now deserve to have it.

I know it's scary going in and under the knife, and not knowing what the plan is, but I have faith that your surgical team will do what is right and best for you...seeing as I'm sure you'da kicked em in the ass if they were incompetent...

We'll be here for ya - just be sure to log back in before the pain meds wear off - I could use some entertaining conversation

love ya jers (ok - go ahead and go puke...or hover now)
