Bob, So glad to hear the outside is now completely separate from the inside of Bob! Having the tubes out is a major jump forward. Keep your protein high and keep growing that hole closed. You are crossing the threshold to normal now! Awesome new Bob is ready to take on the world A little bit more each day. Keep it Up! Best Wishes- Dx
Bob, Great to see you’re still kicking old boy and on the mend. It has been a long road but you'll be on the other side before you know it. When I was 18 years old, I was in a motorcycle wreck that broke my left leg in 47 places. I had 9 operations over 3 years and had to learn to walk from scratch. All this was in Navy hospitals with Navy doctors. It was a really trying time and I was 500 miles from my family during the bulk of it all. There are many days lying in bed in traction that I wish they would crank up the morphine drip and let me out of the personal hell of pain I was living in. That was 30 years ago and while I still have many scars, both mental and physical. Now I am now out hiking 17 miles on a Saturday. I also met my wonderful wife of 28 years just 6 months after the first round of surgeries. After sailing down the road top at 60 miles per hour on my head and shoulders, I figured that God and I had an understanding. When it is time for me to go, I'm out of here because I really should have died that day but he has kept me around. As bad as all of this seems you have to focus in life on the other side. You will get there brother because you’re a fighter. Have Dx tell you his WLS story it not quite so bad but he made it out the other side and he is doing great things everyday. I'm still praying for you Bob, keep fighting and this will all be a bad memory soon... Regards, Tim
