Bowel resection is no joke. It'll jack you up, especially when you're not expecting it.

Oh that sucks, I'm sorry to hear that. I had mine spliced a few years ago, worst Thanksgiving weekend ever. Got me a nice 8 inch scar up my mid-section though, the chicks are really grossed out by it (or by me, whatever). Surgeon did a good job leaving my navel intact though, so I got that going for me. I hope you feel better soon. Be sure to do those stretches so your scar doesn't tighten up and leave you stooped over!

Thanks. It's been a slow recovery but it's better than the alternative. I've definitely been staying mobile so the suture line doesn't get stiff. Digestion is getting better. Who knew 3 inches could make such a difference!? Getting my energy back slowly. I'm normally a fall/winter person, but with everything that has gone on I am SO ready for spring. Flowers, birds coming back, green grass, leaves in the trees....
