Round One of Surgery completed

My surgery yesterday went well. Even thought I had prepared for the colonoscopy, the Dr. was unable to complete it.

Even thought I had not eaten in 2 days, there was still food in my stomach, confirming that my stomach doesn't work properly.
The best news though is that the Dr. WAS able to find my tube and get it out.
It had pushed itself into a ball and was infected, but it is out!!
Thank you for praying!


Meanwhile, I am very nervous about my back surgery this Wednesday. Please be in prayer that it will work. This is my last chance to get off the pain meds, that I've been on for 2 years.

Surgery Round 1

This week has been the week where all the pieces have fallen into place.


Tomorrow afternoon I am having a colonscopy,endoscopy, and enteroscopy (like the endo, but the scope is much longer). I have to be at the hospital, and my surgery starts at 1:30. The Dr. is doing this to see what is going on inside me, and to hopefully find and retrieve my feeding tube.

I am currently drinking my colonscopy prep drink and I'm having alot of problems keeping the drink down. Please pray that I will be able to keep it down and the Dr. will be able to find the tube.

Secondly, next Wed. the 24th, I will be having my back surgery to hopefully stop my hurting. I will know more about the surgery this week, as I go in for my pre-op.

Please keep me in your prayers as these 2 surgeries come up.
Thanks
