Dear Tish and everyone else this gets sent too,
My name is Jill and this past week I was blessed by this adhession web
site. This is all new to me and I'm not sure who will see this. Be patient
with me, I'm learning how this all works. It is so comforting to me to know
I'm not alone. Your E-mail story Tish hit home. I'm 26 years old and seem
to have no pain free days, but do have some pain free minutes. You reminded
me that I sould be thankful for thoughs. The last two weeks of my life have
been dreadful. I'm in extreme pain and my HMO doesn't seem to want and
help. They gave me better pain meds this Friday to get me through until
wed. On wed I am having a colonoscopy, then seeing a surgeon, and then on
thurs, a new ob doctor. I just posted my story on the quilt so if you would
like to hear all my details you can read it there. (jill pacini limpus is
what it's under.) All the doctors think I'm crazy and don't belive I have
adhesions. Or begin to tell me they don't see anything wrong and that
adhesions don't hurt. HUH! I'm to the point now the pain is so bad I'm just
ready to give up. I have a beautful 4 year old and adorable 2 year old and
a very supportive husband. I can't even function. This nightmare has got
to end. I need my life back. Since I've found this site I have learned so
much. I'm so thankful for all the fowarded e-mails I've been sent. Please,
if there is any info on doctors any of you have went to, or medicines that
have helped, I beg for you to share them. I'm at the end of the road. My
husband has said if we need to fly somewhere or raise money, we will to get
our life back. Thanks agin for your uplifting message. I'll continue to
pray for all of you and please pray for me. I know that I have a mighty
saviour and believe my new found friends, God is going to work through to
help win this battle. Thank you for listening.
Love in Christ,
Jill

Hi yall, I hope this finds everyone at least comfy today..
Im not real comfy right now..im dealing with some serious breakthrough
pain today..uggh..
But as my family and i gathered arouund the table to eat together
today..i was kind of mad..because i wanted this one day to be a good
day..and here i am hurting like crazy ..to the point that i am almost
doubled over..this is the first time ive had this much pain since i
started on the patches im not sure why either..
And then Richard was saying the blessing and thanking God for our family
and for every second that i find myself painfree..which THANKFULLY have
been many many lately..and i thought yeah here you are mad..because you
are not quite pain free today..but in the past few weeks you have had
alot of pain free days..shame on me huh...Well i asked God to forgive me
for being mad..and i took a pain killer..now im feeling better.
The moral to the story is that we need to remember to be thankful for
every second that we find ourselves comfy..even when they are few.
Now im gonna finish my BIG slice of COLD WATERMELON our first of the
season YUM YUM..and it is soo sweet...Boy im Thankful for this
watermelon too hehe.
And one more thing i am thankful for is this BOARD..and all of the help
and support you all give to me..and i am especially thankful for my one
very special friend who i found here on this message board....You know
who you are..hehe The One Who said she would call me this weekend..???
Big Gentle Hugs and Tons of Love
TISH...
