Default Thaks to you all

Well I am feeling a little bit better today, it seems like the mornings when I wake up are always the worst, and when I feel the worst pain, then I take my happy juice, and I feel better, I am starting to feel really gassy and bubbly in my stomach, that is normal, Right? I don't really seem to be hungry either, but I have been sipping on broths, water, tea with splenda, and poplsices, and jello, and, wow I sure do get full fast....You all are so wonderful, thanks for all the support throught this,......I get online, a little here and there when I am feeling a little better at times.....but until I am feeling alot better I will be on alot more......Love Ya All.....Be Blessed....Darlene

Darlene, do you have GasX, or something similar? The Gas X strips are a miracle wonder! It seems sometimes like they are not working, but imagine what it would be like WITHOUT them! You'll be pretty sore for awhile, but soooo worth it!

Don't be reluctant to take those pain meds! they will allow you to move around, which aides in your recovery.

Thumbs up To all my loser friends

Kelly and the Doctor tole me to take some Tums, and they seem to be working, and I definatley take my pain meds on time, so that the pain doesn't get unbearable, for me, cause believe me it does work wonders....and of course, I do my walking sipping and of course my napping when needed, cause I do seem to get very tired after taking pain meds....Thanks for all the love and support, I could not have done it without you all.....Love Darlene

Hang on tight for the ride of your life Darlene! I find that everyday is a new adventure...at first in eating, then what to wear when you start melting away!

Congratulations and welcome to the losing side!
