Lillian, Robin, Cheryl, & Karla,
Thank you so much for all your support and prayers; it really means a
lot to me. I will be continuing to pray for you all as well. I hope I
can come back saying that I don't have any more pain too. If I don't
have pain you all may be able to hear me yelling it without the
computer. I will try to get my husband to send out a email letting
everyone know how things went but he is not much of the computer type so
you may have to wait till I am able to type it myself. But who knows he
may surprise me.
I have to start my clear liquid diet in the morning. Then around 3:00
pm I have to start taking these pills called VISICOL; it something new
that is used instead of having to drink that awful stuff to clean out
you colon and stuff. I have a fun day tomorrow but, hey, hopefully it
will be worth it. My surgery is around 7 am Monday morning and I have
to be at the hospital at 5 am. I am so scared for some reason this
time. It seems more so than the last few I have had. I guess because
he has told me more than any of my other doctors have told me. I know
the surgery will take 4-6 hours. That scares me too; it seems like such
a long time to be under. I guess I will get a good sleep on that day.
Well, I have rambled enough. I will let you all know how things are
going as I am able. I will be keeping you all in my prayers. Hugs to
you all!
Love to all,
Christy
