I just wanted to say I will keep you both in my prayers that everything goes well and she is feeling better very soon. Hugs Debbie M 299/208/180 6/20/06

Thoughts and prayers are for you both............be strong and know she is in the right place to get the help she needs. Keep us posted of her progress. Love Jackie

Hi Chris, This is indeed a very scary time for you! Like the others have said she is at the right place to have this taken care of. No one can tell you why this happens to some and not to others and quite frankly that doesn't matter, does it? All that matters is that your beloved Tracy is ill and you are scared. Please try to speak with her doctor and the nurses as they can educate you about this situation and perhaps with that knowledge you will be able to find some reassurance and not be as scared. In the meantime we are all here for you and are praying for Tracy's complete & quick recovery. Warm thoughts and wishing you God's peace. Patt

Hi Chris Has the docs said what causes this? I'm suprised, especially since she's over two years post op. Let her know that we are all praying for her, and please keep us posted . Hugs Linda

I understand your concern. It's tough when we get these problems and our people get worked up over it too. She'll be fine. A hernia can happen anytime and it is fixable. t sounds like she had an opening in her stomach muscles and the intestine will poke through. Small ones are worse than a large one believe it or not. A small one makes it hard for food to pass through where a large one is uncomfortable but food will move through. They will probably fix it. It's not a panic situation but needs attention. Keep us posted and keep calm. kp

Hi Chris, Everyone here has given you great advice...but I know it's hard when your loved one is ill. She will be in our prayers, as well as you, and just know she is right where she needs to be...in the hospital getting help. Some people wait so long at home, it causes more trouble. At least she is there. I also agree...talk to the surgeon and staff...get the details so you understand exactly what's going on, and Tracey too. Please let her know her "OH Family" is praying for her and sending her good vibes!!! Please keep us posted as well, when you have a chance. God Bless, Theresa

Thoughts and prayers going out to Tracey... I am still a pre-op adn don't know much about this so I can't help you, but know that I am praying for all to be fine. Shawn M.

Chris, Tell Tracey we're all thinking of her. I'm sure this is scary, but it's an answer to the problem of her getting sick. If she was sick and "foaming" for a month, then it's good to get this taken care of. It's great that you are there for her, too. I'm sure she'll be fine....keep positve thoughts! Brenda

I'm sorry for her situation but at least they have an answer and the means to take care of it. Please let us know the next steps, and know that you are in our thoughts.
