Guest guest Posted August 30, 2002 Report Share Posted August 30, 2002 , I am so sorry to see that you are still having these problems and will need more surgery. Although surgery is a scary proposition, I am hoping that with this one you will be able to get some relief. I will send up some prayers for you in the hopes that after this things will get back to normal for you. Take care. Barb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 1, 2002 Report Share Posted September 1, 2002 Hi Barb, Thanks, it is a scary time. I thought last year when I had the whipple that would fix everything, was I ever wrong.

Guest guest Posted October 17, 2002 Report Share Posted October 17, 2002 Hi , I kept thinking about all those people when I was I telling them I wouldn't take the pills. All I know is you better be able to hold your own in a hospital. I wish I could do more and it is so frustrating. I get mad at myself for not doing more or being able to go out. I thought the whipple was the big surgery. I just don't remember being this tired after the first surgery. But I do believe it day I get stronger. How are things with you. I bet you are looking forward to Thanksgiving and coming home. I know how I use to feel when my kids came home. Lynn (MeMom) wrote: > This is such good news, Lynn!

Guest guest Posted October 17, 2002 Report Share Posted October 17, 2002 You've been through a lot, Lynn. You weren't in good shape going into the second surgery, so it's no surprise that you are wiped out. Just try to take it easy. I am OK, thank you. may be coming home once before Thanksgiving. That would be a happy couple of days! Re: [ ] Me Mom > Hi , > I kept thinking about all those people when I was I telling them I > wouldn't take the pills.
