Well I talked to her today, she sounded much better. They have gotten all the infections out of her and she is healing well. Still in some pain but doing alot better.

She is scheduled for surgery tomorrow 7-15-09, to clear the blockage. She doesnt know how long she will be in the hospital though. I told her I would call in a couple of days, that way she has time to recover some from the surgery.

She said to tell everyone thank you for your thoughts and prayers and ALL the CARDS she has gotten. She really appreciated them and they really brought up her spirits.

I am so glad to report she seem to be doing better. Lets just all pray or send good energy that the surgery goes well and she gets to go home soon.

Thats it for now.

    That's a Big Relief
    Thanks for the update, Beth.

    That's good that she is feeling better, a huge relief for her I'm sure. I'll pray that her surgery goes well tomorrow and that she starts to mend and can get out of there and back to her life.
