Homicidal Maniac

So many of you have cute little pouches with cute little names. They gurgle at you and even sometimes growl, but for the most part, they behave. Well, mine tried to kill me in my sleep last night. I was sound asleep when I woke up feeling like I was drowning about 3:00 am. I was producing tons of saliva and couldn't swallow fast enough. I thought I was going to drown in my own spit. I'm presuming this was a frothing episode. According to the dietician at the surgeon's office, when you do not have enough gastric juices in your pouch to digest what's in it, your stomach sends a message to the saliva glands in your mouth to produce saliva and enzymes to help break down the food. Now it had been a good 6 or 7 hours since I had eaten. There should have been no food in my stomach to be digested. The pouch couldn't have sent that message when I was still awake? Noooooo.... it waited until I was sound asleep. I have no choice, but to believe that there was malice on the part of my pouch. I'm naming it Bundy. Connie

OK - I about bust my stitches when I got to your pouch's name! Sorry you had problems, but I'm glad to see you still have your sense of humor! Tell Bundy to behave himself (just like a man to attack you in your sleep!!). Take care! -Wendy

This is toooo funny I am still laughing. You have a great sense of humor. I want you to know that I have even heard bad things about "Bundy". Shannon & Shamrock The Irish Lassie

Connie.... I yi yi... I am so sorry about that episode. Ick what a bad feeling and scary at that. Bundy is a PERFECT name!!! Bethany AKA Da Offishal Riddler and Bertha 25 Days into NewPouch and feeling great! -28 lbs!!!! Yayyyy A riddle a day will keep the Marchers pounds AWAY!

Oh my goodness! I'm about to pop a staple or something. I'm just thankful I'm slacking and not drinking anything right now or I'd have one messy laptop! Great name....love it! Dina

I don't know that you have proved beyond a reasonable doubt that "Bundy" had any motive to kill you. I think your little pouch is just confused. Maybe "Mr. Magoo" would be a more apt name.. Just kiddin' - sorry about the scare. Tell "Bundy" to behave or we'll put the thrumb screws to it! (oh, wait.. you already did that didn't you?).. LOL

OMG!! I've never heard of that happening! Gotta luv 'Bundy'...mine is Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarl 'cuz the mouthly little creep kept screaming "EEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAARL!!" for long stretches while I was still in the hospital, 'n still does on occasion. Bundy 'n Eeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaarl sound like cousins or sumpin'...or maybe previous cellmates... Kimmer Queen of the Niners, Instigator to All Marchers, High Priestess of Giggles

I have had that happen to me a couple times in my life BEFORE surgery...never knew why...the saliva was a bottomless pit just kept coming and coming and I kept spitting...it was scary. Then it would just stop. Glad you explained it to me. But I hope you and Bundy come to an understanding quickly!
