Dear April, Don't be scared. Being adhesion free and having yours bowels work is worth anything. And if you are as bad a patient as me, moaning so loudly, that they will give you Anything to shut you up before the whole rest of the hospital leaves, don't worry about pain, just be yourself. By the time I left most of the nurses were ready to pull out their hair. LOL, Love, Sally
