    Yay! Take down!
    So glad that his scan is clear and you are here. I was so afraid that my husbands take down would bring lots of troubles but it went very well and the stoma is all in the past. I hope all goes as smoothly for your husband as it did mine. :)
    GOD's blessings...

    happy thoughts
    Sending happy thoughts and positive vibes your way. Heck, I may even throw in a prayer for good measure. You have the hard job. They should give happy juice to the loved ones who have to sit in the waiting rooms. Keep us posted.

    Bag weg (weg=german away)
    Surgery went well. Took him some time to wake up properly but now he is back on Station and sleeping. So I will return home soon, cuddle the cats (very good for relaxing) and perhabs even drink a glas of wine.

    Thank you all for your support :-)

    Cheers! Good news. And
    Cheers! Good news. And kudos to you for being a strong support to your husband. We've seen on this board, even as recently as today, that sometimes the caregivers have it far worse than the patients. Enjoy the wine and the cuddle. They are well deserved.
