Hello Jill H ;-) It was soooo nice to meet you the other day on the phone:-) You have been on my mind alot since we talked! I have been Praying for you and your family that you can get the help you need SOON! So does this mean you got your OR reports? I sure hope so! Do you know if the Dr. used a barrier? Have you been intouch with My Dr.Yet? Sorry I am so full of questions just worried about you! For your Question you asked what does this mean? >Omentum:
>Fibroadipose tissue with extensive insterstitial hemorrhage and focal
>fat necrosis.
>Thanks,

The only thing I have offer you is the definitions out of my Medical book. I am NOT a medical professional! Just a fellow sufferer trying to help!

Omentum-An extension of the peritoneum that enfolds one or more adjacent organs in the stomach.

fibroadipose tissue- (fibro)-pertaining to fiber (adipose)-pertaining to fat (Tissue)-a collection of simmilar cells that act together in the performance of a particular function.

interstitial-of or pertaining to the space between tissues, as interstial fluid.

hemorrhage-an abnormal,severe internal or external discharge of blood.

necrosis-the death of areas of tissuue or bone surrounded by healthy parts.

So it (MIGHT) Mean- there was some hemorrageing between the fiberous fat tissues and some tissue damage surrounding it. BUT like I said I am NOT a Health Care professional!!!!!!!!! (((((Big Hugs)))))

THERE ARE BLESSINGS IN EVERYTHING
Blessings come in many guises
That God alone in Love devises,
And sickness which we Dread so much
Can bring a very "healing Touch"-
For often on the "WINGS OF PAIN"
The Peace we sought before in vain
Will come to us with "Sweet Surprise"
For God is merciful and wise-
And through long hours of Tribulation
God gives us time for Meditation,
And NO sickeness can be counted Loss
That teaches us to "Bear Our Cross"
