    i hope it goes well.
    try and not expect the pain, from what i have studied you may actually increease it by basically using the negative side of neuroplasticity. just google it if you have time.

    if need an op in future, i will pretend like hell their is no pain, and expect none and anything at all will be easily managed by some meditation. in the 60s before our arsenole of pain relief drugs meditation was a key pain relief technique. as a community we have lost touch with this essential healing technique.

    i have tried it on my kids and myself and the pain relief works.

    i taught my kids zen meditations in 10 seconds. they just close their eyes and count each out breathe from 1 to 10. here is the tricky part when you get to 10 go back to 1 and start again. the kids put out their 10 fingers, so they have to do a 100 breathes. i pull the car over taking them to and from school at random places and say lets meditate. we also add in a little prayer as well.

    you will be fine, everyday is a good day i hope for you. lets us know how you get on. try and get some good nutrtion in hospital. now thats a challenge.

    hugs,
    pete

    ps ask them if they have anything organic on the menu

    Judging by your comments you
    Judging by your comments you have not had a liver resection. I dont know what tbe hospitals are like over there but the hospitals i have stayed in here serve some of the most aweful unhealthy food there is.

    I never thought of it that way. but having a colon ressection with ileostomyand then take down 7 weeks later was two surgeries. Despite various complications I became and remain NED for the last 2 years. You too can do it if I can. I just turned 80 this past Sunday. Best of luck to you!
