*^*^*^*^*^* WE MADE IT!!! *^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^ ANGEL FLYING IN SUPER FAST AND 5 POUNDS LIGHTER!!!
Michelle and I had our surgery on Monday the 3rd and I am home, she is not... She had some minor complications with her stoma swelling up. She was told by one of the nurses at the hospital to drink that crappy blue dye to do the leak test. She drank it in one shot, basically slamming it down. She got sick and vomitted. She had gone for an upper GI, results were unfounded, too swollen to see if there was any reason to go back in Surgically. They told her to wait it out and see what happens. So for the past 2 days she was resting, was able to take a shower, felt better and this morning, she woke up with out vommittin' on her spit. She could swallow without pain, and without having to spit up her own spit!! WHOOO HOOO, so. we are thinking she will be home probably Saturday or Sunday. When I was sent my walking papers today from the hospital, I went to see my sweet friend and she was eating ice chips!! It was so good seeing her little face smile. I can't wait till you get home girl. No more IV pole racing for us!!!!! Please send her an email with your thoughts!!!!!!!!!!! xoxoxoxo CaliforniaKimmy
