,

I glad that you home and your regular doc did come back from vacation to help.

He sound like a real gem. I great that your hometown folks want to help, with

some of your cost of your upcoming surgery. Sometimes our fellow neighbors and

friend and associates really come thru when we need it most. Do you have a date

for your surgery with Dr. Sutherland yet. Keep us posted on your surgery

progress. It's good to hear that your feeling better.

Take Care,

Good Evening to All

Hello My Panc. Pals!!!

Last post I made said 'feeling great.... " ...GUESS WHAT????? About

30 minutes later I was in absolutely horrible pain. I took my

percocet like a good girl but no help. So I went to the ER at

4:30am...I Pleaded with the Dr. (he has seen me numerous times) to

make sure I was admitted. I am supposed to be admitted upon

arrival...Right?? That's My DR.'s Orders. Well, My Dr. was supposed

to be on vacation and his partner whos knows me also refused. After

getting 75 + 25 mg of demerol they sent me home. 2 hours later I was

back in the ER and this time they admitted me. Unfortunately my Dr.

cancelled his vacation because of this. Guess I do have somewhat of a

gem in him. I didn't have the best stay in the hospital as the veins

kept blowing etc. I finally talked my Dr. into a picc line (he was

weary as I had developed a blood clot from one b4) so in case I need

to return to the ER for meds or need fluids at home it would be easy.

Today I had a celiac block. So far so good. My back is killing me and

I've had abdominal pain but I think it's from severe diarrhea.

Anyway...everything is in place for MN. Just waiting to hear from

Anne Marie for the exact surgery date.

Good News...I have Friends. While I was in the hospital several of

my friends got together and have spread the word of my impending

costly surgery. A local band (I'm casual friends with all the guys)

are donating all of their door takes and their pay for the next 8

gigs to help defray the cost. I also have someone who has offered to

pay for all airline tickets involved (including my follow-up visits).

I guess I'm not a person who asks for anything (except prayers) and I

was very shocked that people have offered monetary gifts. I haven't

told my mom yet because she would refuse any help. I'll just present

her with the tickets.

, Glad to hear you are doing better buddy!!!! Keep the faith

dahlin...things will get better.

, Congrats Dude!!! I'm extremely Happy for you and wish I

was eating Mc's french fries right now! I'm Jealous....lol.

I'm not slighting anybody but I have a ton of mail to catch up on.

I'm tired from the lack of sleep in the hospital and need my rest.

I'll be caught up in a few days.

Hope everyone is doing well and remember the PAI members are always

in my prayers.

Peace & Love,

N'Awlins Gal
