Finally home...

Admitted to the hospital Sept. 2. Emergency surgery Sept. 3.
Ruptured colon.

I have a lot of catching up to do so this will be brief.
Almost two weeks in, came home Friday past.
Pain has let up considerably.
Blessed with great doctors and nurses.

I have an ostomy bag which we learned about when Carol
had colon cancer. Hoping I can get rid of the bag in
3-6 months.
Diet is low fiber soft foods for a couple months.

The worst that happened was the phone call this morning
from Florida. My friend Jan lost her hard struggle with
lung cancer this morning. Her pain and suffering is over.

 

Hope all of you are well. I've missed you.
