Finally Back!

Wow! I didn't think I'd make it.

I had a colectomy done on me the 17th of August. 5 days in the hospital and 16 days on my back fighting the pain from my abdomen, the pain from lying down in one position, the drug haze from the Vicodin and the anesthesia, the vast amounts of anti-bacterial IV drugs, the one shot directly in the belly to fight the germs, my arms looking like a dart board and the chicken bouillon over dose!

Yep, that bouillon. AKA Chicken Bouillon!!! 2 straight days while i was purging the bowels then a big bowl placed in front of me right after surgery only to be followed by 5 days more of that ugly killing stuff. I subsisted on jello, ice cream, tea, milk and a few other soft foods,

I was so desperate for one of my buddies to sneak me in a double cheeseburger!!! BUT! You know the story. A friend in need is a friend indeed, BUT only if the buddy needs and not you. I finally got home and I had no appetite with small meals spread to 5 or 6 on a daily basis.

But here I is. Just kicking!!! I'm back on my feet and feeling better everyday.

Itchy Girl, I want to thank you for the lovely card you sent me. I wanted to reciprocate but I don't "fit your style" so I'm send you this :teddybear

I look forward to reading the blogs and commenting again. Of course what caught my eye immediately was Crazy purple heart in Dedo's blog. WOWSER!!! Ok, i'll be good!!

GOOD MORNING CONNECTING SINGLES!!!!
