    Hiya Fed--WELCOME BACK!!!!!!!!!!!
    Was thinking of you when I was in hospital on the 9th--good to see yu pulled thru ok. Good to see your sense of humour was not taken away too! Takes a while for the plumbing to settle down. I found that eating in smaller quantities more regular than just the "normal" 3 meals a day helped. Oh--and rather than just water for hydration I drank hi-energy drinks--it seemed to help me get my strength back(just my opinion). LOL--won't be long before Emily gets you started on some juices!---Em--where are you????
    Luv n huggs--kanga n Jen

    Hello,
    Hope it gets better in the BM department. Enjoy every one! We are all so lucky to be here having them (gosh, I hope that was funny, I meant it to be). I am happy it all went well and you are on the mend.

    Ahoy there, fed -

    Welcome back. Glad everything is "going" well for ya. I was thinking about you.

    I remember when I first visited the head after my surgery; I felt like a little kid - I had to tell all the nurses about it and they clapped for me and told me "Good Job!" (funny how life is so circular, eh?) One thing I learned was that if I felt like I had gas, I just made sure I was ... uh... shall we say "sitting down" when I released it - just in case. Saved my butt (or should I say saved my under-oos) more than once!

    Keep up the great recovery.

    Cheers
