Update on Surgery Mood
Saturday, July 19, 2008 | A General Update story

I had my surgery on July 14th.  It started quite a bit late at night due to complications with surgeries before mine.  The masses turned out to be fluid and not solid and there was no cancer. :)  I had a lot of adhesions that were fluid filled which were also removed.  My surgeon also found a hernia at my old colostomy site that will have to be repaired if it gets any worse.  So, another surgery might be necessary.  Overall, I guess it was a good outcome.  Now I am just recovering.  Hopefully I wil be able to go off of disability and back to work in about 4 weeks.  Thanks for all the support.
