Default Update on Tami

I just got off the phone with Tami and thought I would share with you all what had happened to her. While she was in surgery, the anestegeoligist(sp?) had accidently poked a hole in her new pouch . That is why she had to go to the open procedure. Since she has the hole in her new pouch, she has to stay in ICU until Monday and cannot have ANY food or water. No, not even ice chips . She is very drugged up so her pain is minimal at the moment but is wanting to eat really really bad. She asks that we all keep her in our prayers, as she really needs them right now. Thank You.

Something similar happened last year, they called it a faield surgery. I am sorry to hear of that, but at least she did get the bypass, the other one was repaired and closed without being completed bypass.

Good luck and tell Tami our thoughts and prayers are with her.

That just sucks! At least the surgery is over and she can get moving towards recovery.
