"Michael "Dog3"" wrote in message . .. "Paul M. Cook" : in rec.food.cooking Not meraning to scare anyone but pray hard, yes. This is serious business. I know I had it. Fortunately she appears to be in the hospital before any peritonitis could set in. She'll be fine if she has to have a resection performed. She'll have a colostomy most likely for 3 months or so - assuming there is too much infection to reconnect the colon in one surgery. It's a long journey to recovery though, 6 weeks easily and then the second surgery to reconnect. . The good news is when you're all healed up the odds of it happening again are quite slim. While my gut is always a problem it has been much less of one since my ordeal. So there is some good that comes out of it. I had a colostomy too. It was not pretty. The reversal, while not perfect, was okay. I don't think I'll ever be back to normal but it's okay. You do have the option of having it redone. I know some people have a hard time with adhesions and sometimes partial closer of the connection. Sucks I know but if I can land some good insurance someday I'll think about a redo. Nice to know a fellow member of the purple snake club. Paul |

Let's keep our collective fingers crossed that she doesn't. They've already got her on morphine, she's in some pain. Bad timing, to say the least. I neglected to find out what hospital, of course. nancy Oh, hell. Postive thoughts headed her way. |

My scroungy little fall seems so trivial. 'T'aint necessarily so. My daughter's mustang made several credible attempts on her life. One of them left her with a perfect hoof print on her sternum where Luna stomped her, in spite of having several other perfectly open avenues of escape. The only thing that saved DD was the fact that she bounced to her feet and hit that bitch from hell right in the nose with a roundhouse punch that started around ankle level when Luna turned to make another run at her. The next time, after a perfectly sedate ride 'round the pasture, Luna went into a bucking, crowhopping frenzy and dumped DD off on her head, nearly breaking her neck and resulting in a seriously altered state of consciousness that lasted for a good 90 minutes. Luna went to auction and sold for $24.00. I wouldn't have given a wet slap if she'd gone for dog food, but as it turned out, she's now a rodeo bronc. At least now, anybody who swings a leg over her knows what they can expect. |

This is where I'm supposed to say something nice: censored uncharacteristic comments from swertz "Fire up that new laptop and talk to us, Jill!" ![]() I've noticed all hospitals have public wireless now, even in the emergency areas (waiting and treatment). Now if they'd only start selling Starbucks... OTOH, Jill ... posting on morphine? Nah. -sw |
