Thank you, Trisha! Just trying to keep people updated. I'm still in the hospital. I have a procedure tomorrow that will tell the doctors if I can go home, or if I have one more surgery left to go.

Thanks for reviewing,
Rhonda

Thank you, RP. I am still in the hospital, but doing better. They'll do a test tomorrow that will tell them whether to let me go home or do another operation. At this point, I've decided to pretend I'm on vacation. I've got room service, a nice room, and people to give me my complicated medicine regime for me. Thanks for caring,
Rhonda

Welcome, Rhonda.
Along with all the facilities there, the Almighty GOD is with you. You will be quite well soon. WORRY NOT!
With best wishes,

Rhonda, I'm so sorry. How bad I feel. I was wondering where you were, but have been so engulfed in cherries that I never realised. How selfish of me. I'm so sorry you've been through a major operation and even had to go back for another one. I'm so glad you're on the mend. I will be looking out for updates. Please do forgive me. I feel so bad. A hug. Ulla :)xx

Don't feel bad. I would love to be in the middle of the cherries with you. I'll picture that I am, and feel all better!
They are going to run a test tomorrow that will determine if I have another surgery or can go home for a while. At some point, I'll have to have another surgery to close up the ostomy they put in as it is just a temporary one.

Thanks for caring, and for noticing I was missing. lol

Thank you as well! I have been through more that you (or I) could possibly imagine, but it will all work out for good. I may have another operation Wednesday, pending a test tomorrow. I regret being away from this site, but we've had quite a bout with pain management, and limited mobility. And... I've slept a lot. hehe.

Take care,
Rhonda

I am saddened to hear that. My prayers are sent daily for you and your family. God is Good...and He will not forsake you.

Thank you, Dean!
What a beautiful gesture. I wasn't out of the hospital long before they put me back in. I had another major operation, and a few minor ones. Still hanging in, and knowing I have had such caring support has been a wonderful gift.

God Bless,
Rhonda

I hope you're doing better now, Rhonda.
God bless, and Happy Memorial Day.

Thank you, Dean!
What beautiful flowers, and a warm message. I actually read this on Memorial Day, and it meant a lot to me. I just wasn't in a good enough place to get on here and write. Ie I was pretty well medicated, and anything I tried to write turned into mush.
Hugs,
Rhonda

reply by Dean Kuch on 06-Jun-2017

No worries, Rhonda.
You're more than welcome and most important of all, I'm glad you're feeling better.

reply by the author on 07-Jun-2017

Thank you, Dean! I appreciate the beautiful graphic and the support. I have a third surgery tomorrow, hopefully it'll clear things up. At least they found the tumor was all precancerous, and I won't require chemo or radiation.

reply by Dean Kuch on 07-Jun-2017

Oh, that's good news at least.
You're very welcome, Rhonda.
God bless.

Rhonda, omg I am sorry that you have to go through this not once but twice. You are such a strong woman and I hate to see these things happen to my good friend. You know people will tell you to follow doctor's orders to get better and heal. I'm praying for you each day.

The month of May has been filled with trials and tribulations for me, that I am exhausted mentally. I'm finding it hard to want to go on. Being alone and no one here to rely on is very difficult.

Please take my friend and get well soon!!

Love you

Jim

Thank you, Jim. The stars are a nice gift, and your kind words as well.
I'm sorry May has been bad for you. It hasn't done a whole lot for me, either.
God be with, my friend. XOX

Thank you, Debi. I am back in the hospital so they can watch me, and have a procedure tomorrow to see if further surgery is needed. I vote Not!

I'll be glad when I'm able to write again. I can't seem to in here.

Take care,
Rhonda

Thank you, Roy. I thought I had messaged you, but I guess I did not. They found a mass in my colon they assumed was cancer. They cut it out and it all tested as precancerous. Unfortunately, I had some complications, and they had to do a second surgery and put in a temporary illiostomy. I have developed infections they've had to treat. Tomorrow they are doing another endoscopy to see if the original surgery lines have healed. They had been leaking, and, thus the infection. Thanks for your prayers!
