Doctor tomorrow

I am back to St Raphaels tomorrow morning. I have a subcutaneous stitch from my gallbladder surgery that has been very painful and poking into me since I got out of the hosptal!! They have made me wait 2 weeks because it was too soon to remove it. I just want this all to be over with for obvious reasons the biggest being almost 2 years out and still having problems. It's so strange, you can actually see this stitch looking at my belly. GROSS!!!! Wish me luck! love to all, Cheryl

Hi Cheryl Oh geez you had enough to spend trips to hospitals and doctor s office.!!!! I will thinking of you today and will pray for you. I wish I have magic spells to take that painful out from your stomach! Hugs Kathy K

Hey girl, Sorry to hear this...but lets look at it this way, one more trip to the Dr, one trip closer to being D.O.N.E. You have such a great attitude and you are such a strong woman, dont let this get you down. Hope to see you soon...now that school is over I'm all up for the Wrentham Shopping Outlet trip. Do you have any information on it? Imagine the after-season sales! Oh la la!! Peace, -Deb

Kathy and Deb. Thank you so much for your kind words. You both LOOK MAH-VA-LOUS! I am up early reading mail. Pretty soon I'll make the trip down to New Haven. It takes me an hour on a good traffic day so I need to plan. My daughter is driving me home so I'll have company. She's great and planning to be a nurse so I have been excellent training for her. I hear you on the Wrentham trip Deb! As soon as I am on the upswing I'll check into buses and the cost for a group. I think it would be a blast. You are both inspirations to me watching you both melt before my eyes. love Cheryl

Oh Cheryl, I can't believe you have another issue I'll be praying for you today - at least this one can be taken care of quickly. Keep us posted. Kathy Bilodeau

Hi Cheryl, Oh boy, I wish I knew you were coming into New Haven. I would have met you there. . As it happens, I didn't go to work today. I woke up with a sinus headache. I thought I might get my car back today also but it isn't looking that way. Mary Lou and I will be going to the Civic Center this evening for the Girl's game.....Go UCONN!!!! I sure do hope this is the end of all your medical issues. I know it has been one thing after another and it is time to put that all behind you. I just know that 2005 is going to be a great year for you. Please wish your family a very happy and healthy New Year for me and lets get together soooooooon. Linda

My Dear Angel, I pray that this is your last complication with this mess! Let us know what happens. Much love, Phyllis

Linda, Kathy and Phyllis! Thank you so much! I just got home and found out that I have to wait yet again. Dr. Reinhold said it was too soon to re open me and said he thinks it may be infected. He wants me to have a CAT Scan to make sure. I have to wait until mid January and then he wants to put me in twilight! My favorite! NOT...... Phyllis, my little angelette, how are you? Have you heard anything?? I have prayed for you and saw you thin in a dream I had. I dreamt we had this huge picnic on a beach and there you were walking with a man and we kept looking at each other going I know you right?? And you were so tiny!!!!! Dreams come true right?? Linda and Kathy, we really DO have to get together soon, I wish I knew you were home Linda, I would have called you for sure. Kathy, I am so glad those children were found safe. I don't know the story, but I do know children always get the short end. I hate that. Thanks again, all of you for posting. I saw the email waiting for me and it just warmed my heart. I know this will be over soon for me. I did gain 3 more pounds back so the doctor was happy about that. I need to gain 10 more. I never thought I'd see the day I had that problem. I have always been fat. Now I fight to keep it on. I am so fearful of dumping I won't test those waters so I just try to eat something every 3 hours. What a problem.... love to all, Cheryl

So these aren't the disolving stitches, I take it? Yuckers that you can see it! haha That is nuts. I know everything will go fine and this will all be over soon. Then you can just relax! In any case, I will still send good karma your way! Tara
