Haven't heard from John in awhile. Last I heard he was moving forward, all be it slowly. I miss his humor and fish stories.

    I'm still hanging in there....

    Not much has changed.., still have a leak that doesn't seem to ever wanna seal up...grrrr.

    But feeling pretty good, eating and maintaining my weight..

    Learning more what I can eat without feeling like crap most of the day...

    Good to hear from you. But I

    Good to hear from you. But I wish they could fix that leak. I think of you and Shelley a lot and pray for you both. Miss your fishing stories.

    Cyber hug to you both, Debbie

    God bless you as you continue to recover. They ended up surgically repairing my fistula last week. A bit rough. Hope they can resolve yours soon.

    Always thinking of you and Shelley

    Thank you....

    I'm still hanging in there full of hope... Tongue Out

     

    I had an abcess pop up, very slowly near one of the original drain sites... That was pretty painful.., got some antibiotics and pain meds for that, and it's on the mend.

    Not much new on the leky hole as of yet...

    I am scheduled to see my Gastro MD per my surgeon... The stint hat he ut in for the original surgery has moved in my stomach from horizontal, to vertical... So I guess they are going to do a somehwat Endoscopy and pull the stint out through my throat and mouth..., lovely.

    Hoping that might help with some minor nausea and possibly source of the hole not healing...

    Will keep you informed...

    Thoughtsand Prayers,

    John
