Lynette, Good luck on your upcoming surgery. I know how you feel. Most
of my 7 surgeries were laparotomies, which carry a greater risk factor.
My doctor also used Seprafilm, I got the impression that it was used as
a last resort. I have had 3 close calls, a ruptured ectopic pregnancy,
hemorrhaging after my intestine was nicked during surgery and 3 bowel
obstructions. The point I want to make is, please don't give up. Try
to build yourself up and be at your healthiest before your surgery. I
know that what we all endure seems to be a vicious cycle with no end in
sight. We have got to support each other because no one else can
understand what we go through with mentally or physically. Please let
us know how you are and when your surgery is. Remember, we have got to
stick together !!!! Sherry
