Went to the Dr at 11 to see why my pouch was giving my trouble. 1 hour later I was having an emergency surgery to have my my intestines removed from my hernia and and having my appendix removed. Home and doing good. I have a weird dent in my stomach and hopefully it doesn't stay that way

Rebecca,
Let me be sure I understand what you just said.... at noon today you had emergency surgery for an appendectomy and a hernia repair.   At 5:30, you are home, doing good, and sitting around typing on the computer??

That's totally amazing...... It must be the name..... everyone named Rebecca must have pain thresholds in the clouds.

Hope you are all healed soon.  Swinging geckos and labradoodles for you.
