I lived! The emergency surgery revealed that the resected colon had popped open, leaking all of its contents into my belly. :( NOT good. I nearly died!
But- I did not :)
This time I ended up all patched back together. I had 2 drains a catheter and sadly for me- an ostomy. After my 9 day stay this time...bringing me to the end of Oct... I was sent home with the lovely ostomy and a wide open wound. It took about 2 months for the wound to heal with the help of a wound care clinic and a wound vac. After a lot of tears and several weeks of virtual depression I decided to get my head on straight and get back to real life.
Now I am fine...well, considering :)
