Dear Jim I had a friend that went through the same as you plan and she had
to be rushed backed to theatre only hours after as her bowel split because
it could not stretch open enough.She ended up with a stoma for four months
and then they will try to jion her bowel back together and hope it works so
please think about this carefully.
