Some of you know I had surgery to remove a tumor in my rectum. It was a long surgery, but I did well. Two complications found me to stay 8 days.

I went home, but was back in Friday the 14th due to horrific pain and high fever. It was a bowel blockage and a leak in the surgical line. A second surgery was done, and a temporary iliostomy put in to rest my intestines. Today has been the first day I've felt like even sitting up. I am very optimistic about my recovery now.

On the aside, I don't write well under pain and pain medication. I apologize for any and all mistake.

Thanks for your thoughts and prayers,

Rhonda
