Hi guys, I just got done posting this message...and ended up loosing the whole novel. I'll try to recap. Monday I had a fever and the chills. I know I had a temp but I lost the thermometer. This morning I woke up feeling O.K. but not 100%. My homecare nurse took my temp and said that I had a temp of 100.1. My temp has been 99 every time she has come for visits. My nurse called the wound care dr. and they wanted me to come in today. Well, I'm alittle stuborn. I told them that there was no reason for me to come in for 1 lousy degree in temperature difference. Later on today, my belly started hurting..it felt like a burn. I looked in the mirror and I could see that there was a blotch below my incision about the size of my hand. I called the Wound Care center and that nurse told me to get myself to the hospital imediately! I actually went to my PCP's office and waited till I could fit-in with any of the doctors. I am now on antibotics. I "might" have something called Paracentesis which is shall I say....life threatening. Soooo, could you guys send me some "it will be alright hugs" We will see with the next couple of doses if it is gonna help. I don't wanta go back in the hospital! See Willby, I AM the cry-baby Queen! Hugs, Virginia aka Ginger

Hi Jamie, Going into this surgery 9 weeks ago..I never would had guessed that all this would happen to me. I was gonna be the one walking the halls and wondering why everyone else wasn't walking the halls and feeling great like me. I believe everything happens for a reason..I'm still trying to figure out WHY ME? Thanks for your good wishes. It means allot to me. Hugs, Ginger
