Bowel blockage = the worst pain imaginable. I'm so sorry. I know you must feel like shit.

As if cancer wasn't enough to deal with.

I love you, kid. Hang in there. Stay tough.

    They actually biopsied the tumor and found it was all pre-cancerous, which was strange considering its size. So, no chemo or radiation!!
    Unfortunately, I've had several complications that have landed me back in the hospital, and in danger of a third operation. Grrr.
    Will know tomorrow for sure. I'll let you know!

    Oh great! But, oh no! Gut stuff? Bowel obstruction?? I'm praying for you as well as I know how, not being a great pray-er. Much love.

    Hey, light and love works, too. I'm still in the hospital, but am eager to get out of here. When you get to that point, you know you're feeling better.

    Light and love headed full force your direction.

    Thank you for that Aussie hug. I'll take it!
    I'm doing better right now, though I'm still in the hospital. Hopefully I can keep coherent thoughts together long enough to write.

    Take care, my friend, and thanks for your comments.

Excellent writing considering the pain you must be in. I wish you a quick and complete recovery. Surgery is never fun and when it goes bad it is even worse. I hope you get well soon. Hugs from this FanStory friend.

Praying for you Sister. Always miss you here. But getting better is more important. I am trying to come up with a Foreword to my biography now it is all but finished. Is an iliostomy an external bag of some kind? Sorry for grossness. But what is needed is needed.

    Yes, that's what an illiostomy is. It's just temporary while the surgical site rests, thank you for your prayers and support. You're a great friend, and wonderful organizer.

    Take care,b,my friend,,

My prayers are with you my friend. I know it is a hard go but when it is done, you will be better than ever before and your body will have been rested. Just don't expect to get your energy back, it may or may not come but will take time

    Yeah, the energy is what frustrates me. I have to take a nap after taking a shower. lol. In fact, I nap a lot, but I don't get much done that way. Being in the hospital assures I don't have much to do anyway, but I would like to take some of this time to write. Problem is, I'm too medicated to do that well, either, so I'm going to review and answer reviews. Thanks for responding!

Rhonda,

Glad the problem was discovered and fixed. Don't worry about writing for now. Just concentrate on making a full recovery. Who knows, maybe being under the influence of all that medication, you'll get some 'crazy' new ideas for Archie and the gang! LOL

You are still in my prayers.

Suzanne

    Thank you, Suzanne! I am on the mend, but there is still something wrong, so they are doing surgery on Friday. You know, the surgery to fix all the other surgeries. Thanks for checking on me. I might get some crazy ideas on all these pain meds. I should keep a notepad handy. haha.

    Take care,
    Rhonda

I have been wondering but saw your post last week and thought you were just busy with school projects. Thanks so much for the update. Sorry you've been in such pain. Sending prayers and hugs!

    I'll take the prayers and hugs! I'm still in the hospital, and have another surgery Friday, but they, hopefully, I'll get to recover and go home. To be honest, I've spent a lot of time laying around and sleeping. I walk the halls and talk to people, and guilt family members into visiting. Thanks for the review, and sorry it's taken so long to get back to you!

    Thanks so much for the update. I've been praying for you and for Portia who I last heard was in the hospital. Life is so full of challenges sometimes. Bless you for guilting family members to visit. Hugs and prayers.

Rhonda, God Bless you. I will keep you in my prayers. There's not a pain much worse than a bowel blockage. It sounds like you are over the hump now, though. Now'd be a better time to read, perhaps.

    Hi, Jay!!
    I saw you had something posted. I'll try and check it out later. I only get on here for limited time as it hurts to sit for very long. I ended up with two surgeries, and am facing another one on Friday. Hopefully that's it... grrr...
    Thanks for dropping by. I've missed you.

Hi Rhonda,

You just need to rest and take it easy. It's not easy. Around this time last year I was hospitalised for a couple of weeks with an unknown infection and was on a drip and oxygen for most of the time. I couldn't think or see straight.

rest up
G

    Oh wow, well thanks for sharing. I've never been in this long before and the meds they are giving me make me loopy. It's been pretty crazy. I have trouble sometimes texting my family because it'll be all jarbled.

    Thanks a lot,
    Rhonda

Thanks for the update, Rhonda, and hopefully that's it for this deal--as you've had more than enough, I imagine--think puppies and rainbows from this point forward!
