Topic: RE: At Home Recovering
I finally got to talk with my surgeon today. The good news is that my bypass looked fantastic and had no adhesions or any problems. My appendix was red looking so he thought it might have been the source of my pain and went ahead and took it out. He also found a growth on my liver which was removed for biopsy. He said they are mostly benign but we will know for sure next week when results are in.
I have been resting and taking pain pills, so I kind of fade in and out
Anyway, I am healing up. I hope that we have determined what the problem really was and I never have to go through that kind of pain again.

Lisa, your willingness to share your experience is such a powerful thing. I bet if we all came clean, we would find many of us had some pretty bad thngs happen to us in the past. The very fact that you reached out to us is a huge step. It means you can start to move forward. It lessens the strength of the past. It puts you firmly pointing towards the future. I feel very priviledged that you felt you could share with us and I will always be here when you need a boost, a laugh or a cry.

Lisa,
The things that happened to you, HAPPENED to you. You were not the cause of the events. Guilt is a terrible thing and so is blame. Stop blaming yourself for what someone else did to do, Only then, will you be able to deal with it and heal. We are all here for you and all believe in you and your goodness.

Quick note; made it home from surgery today. I have not spoken with the surgeon since he was booked up tight today with many surgeries.
Nurse in recovery told me no hernia repair, I had an appendectomy and liver biopsy instead. Not sure what is happening and anxious to speak with the DR.
Pain meds are doing their job. Throat is sore but I am really doing okay. I will keep all of you posted. Thank you all for your support. It really means a lot to me.

We're here for you, Lisa. You are strong! You can do it! God is in control. Look at everything you've overcome. Of course God has forgiven you, if indeed there is anything to be forgiven (how much of it was your fault and how much was forced on you?). Glad you've got a therapist whom you can talk to. And yes, don't ever apologize to us. We all have issues we have to deal with.
We love you, girl.
