Guest guest Posted July 6, 2005 Report Share Posted July 6, 2005 Ingrid is okay and back home after another stint in the hospital and more surgery. She asked me to post to you all and let you know she is okay and in some pain. She is overwelmed right now and she needs a lot of rest to help in her recovery. Ingrid is thankful for all your e- mails and well wishes and will return your e-mails when she is a little stronger and able. After her first surgery and removal a nodule which the surgeons treated it as if it was cancerous with her present history of cancer ended up removing a third of her lower lung to find out that the results were negative on the biopsy. I beleived it is called a granule tumor but benign. Ingrid as grateful for that. After she got home from the hospital she had had some issues with her digestion. Ingrid began to get sick and was throwing up( I will save you from the details)....something wasn't right and she was rushed back to the hospital which I believe for her is almost two hours away. Ingrid had emergency surgery for a blockage that was caused by the original surgery when they did her colon resection. The adhesion had twisted her colon and created a blockage. She says she is stapled up now front and back and in-between. This was a week ago She is in some pain and is trying to get needed rest which you know she really needs. Obviously she is a little down after haaving two un expected surgeries back to back after she thought all was okay after she finished with the chemo. I think that outlines pretty much what Ingrid has been going through and her family. I know Ingrid will be posting soon. I know that this is not a setback for Ingrid and I know despite what has gone on recently that You are on a glorious road to recovery. You know all are thoughts and prayers are with you and you'll be just fine. Just remember you need time to heal yourself and let your family give you a chance to do that. You are strong, but time now to rest and build up again your energy. You know where to find us....
