Don...

feeling better each week, however in between that and now I had a coup more things happen.  My appendix ruptured and I had to go to this small 40 bed hospital that everyone told me not too, but I was in some major pain.  Dr. told me I should have been operated on yesterday and if I insisted on taking an ambulance to my hospital in Houston that I would be dead before I got there, in fact he wasn't sure they could act in time.

Well they did and 5 days later Dr. comes in to tell me there were some complications and he needed to operate again.  I sweetly ask for an ambulance and was transferred to St. Luke's in Houston.  Once again I was whisked to the OR room before I knew what was happening.  My Doctor Wood went in for 3 1/2 hours cleaning up from 1st Dr., also had to take out 1/2 of my colon and remove some of my small intestines that were adhered to my Pelvic.

29 days later I got out and was sent home with a home health care nursh that came 3 times a day.  My lungs are in worse shape again for alll the operations, mediciams, etc.  So now I'm in a healing mode.

I am grateful and feel truly blessed to have survived.  I've missed all of you so much and am just now feeling like getting back in the rain.  I'm going to do my first post tonight or tomorrow.  L
