Friends and family, I arrived back home Saturday (yesterday) after a 10 day stint in the hospital.  I have a new opening in my gut, same fissular (SIC) different hole, this one the size of a 60's Eisenhower silver dollar, and then the dime size below.  They put me on tube feeding 24/7, and limited liquids by mouth to see if they could put a hold on the fissular growth.  They turned my care over to a wound care specialist, Dr. Kratz, but still I have checkups at the bareatric place, needless to say they don't leave me in the waiting room for long :). Thanks for your continued support and prayers. BobM.

 Glad you made it home Bob.  I will pass this on to everyone.  You know if you need anything please don't hesitate to call.  We sent you a card(to the hospital)  hopefully they will see that you get it.  I did not know you were getting out so soon.  We were told you would be in for three weeks. Call us and let us know when you feel up for a visit.  We will continue to pray.

Bob can you stop this and just get better. You dealt with enough already time to get on the road to recovery full time.

Well, heck Bob...

You're conscious and probably feeling a lot stronger than before. No need to dwell on this setback, I guess. So I'll ask...how's the weight loss doing?

Hi Bob, It's good to know you're home again. Let the docs take care of you and trust your body to kick in. Hope the rest of the journey is smoother.

Bob, Glad to hear you’re home again. The “feeding tube 24/7” is actually better for your recovery speed Even though it’s a pain in the butt. Hope to hear your fistulas have improved soon. Prayers continuing for your total health. Best Wishes- Dx
