Hey guys.... I am finally home. Everything was fine during surgery til he found that I had a Extremely Small Intestines !! Which made a problem something had to do with my stomach. So they had to put a GI tube into my large stomach so it wouldn't burst. I also had a drain hanging from the other side which they pulled out at the hospital. Well I am not able to drink hardly anything without getting sick (I haven't threw up yet). So Now I have to feed myself through the GI Tube. That will get pulled out in 2 weeks !! OMG that is going to hurt soooo bad.. It hurts sooo bad already. Sometimes I wonder why I did this to myself and now I think about my children and how much better I will feel after this feeding tube is out. I have very supported friends and family which makes it easier !! Thanks for all the messages everyone had left me !!!

Hang in there, sounds like it's gonna be a rough start to your new life! Hopefully the tube doesn't hurt coming out. I was freaking out about my drainage tube coming out,I mean crying and screaming when they said they were going to do it. I was so overly anxious about it, but I didn't feel a thing. So hopefully thats how your GI tube goes for you.

Lauren,

I am sorry that things have been less than perfect for you.  I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers that the next two weeks will fly by and you will be feeling much better soon.  You've got friends here who care and we're here for you!

You're on the loser bench now though and things are going to be great going from here on.

Hugs,
Barb

I'm glad you're home.  Hang in there and take things one day at a time.  Sorry that things are rough right now.  They'll get better.
