I'm home! (Warning: long post)
Linda, so glad you're home safe and sound. Michelle (TEAZ) has been doing a fabulous job keeping us posted. Dr. Marchesini was high on my list of revision surgeons because I thought the same things you described. I can't begin to imagine how tough the past 2 months have been on you and your family, how scary.
But what's important is you're home and on the mend with a new life in front of you.
Take good care,
Debbie M.

Holy ****!
Thank god you are alive, and it seems relatively OK.
Your poor father must have been going crazy not being able to get down there to you.
How the hell are you moving around with a hole the size of a baseball in your stomach?
What is that ordeal going to cost you? Any idea?
Do you have a good DR to follow up with here in the USA?
Feel better!
Keep us updated please, that is an amazing story.

Wow Linda....it's amazing how close you were to the brink but have lived to tell the tale. Welcome back! I'm so glad you're home and alive. Congrats on being such a fighter....you're so going to rock the DS! Keep taking it one day at a time, and your strength will return. I'm so happy that you've made it back home!
