Wow, why so many problems with that?  I am excited to be able to cath a different way myself without anything attached to me, but if I would have to go through that, I think I would have reconsidered.  I know I wont have to this time, but just to think that I would be reliving my past for a few days would be the cost, WOW!!!  I know I will come out of mine gloriously.  I'm sure that you will too Amy.

If youare getting a bladder augmentation, you will love it!  It "is" a rough
surgery--mine was 9 hours with 3 days in ICU on a vent so was in an induced
coma.  I do remember my mom talking to me once, I guess they let me be awake
just long enough for that.. Next thing I knew I was in a room with more
holes and tubes running out of me than I knew existed!   Some were man
made--like for a suprapubic and the mainline in my neck.  I'm sure they have
better ways of doing it now!  I was in the hospital 10 days.
take care, and keep us posted.

> Hey there! I thought I'd give you a heads up on my month next month. I'm
having some major work done on my bladder. On October 18, 2004 I will be
admitting into ETMC to prepare for surgery. Then on the 19th at 7:15am they
will be taking me in. My doctors said I should be there 5-7 days and the
recovery could take up to four weeks. I'm hoping to be able to get out of
bed and do my work the following week. I'll have more information after
October 5th, my next appointment to make final preparations.
