I just have pics at disabled of america site. I took some new ones
but silly me forgot to load them to the computer before deleting them. I
made prints at walmart. When I'm up and about, I will load the new ones I
have. I took one the other day with my van so I could share it with my
Aunt that lives long distance and hasn’t seen it and my Mom has been bugging me
for pics even though I just saw her in March. Anyhow I will load them when
I get a chance to scan and save them. Right now the lap top is in my room
hooked to the modem. I can get wireless by picking up someone elses
modem/router but it's slow and I'm lazy when it comes to unconnecting the
computer plus I only get about 2 hours before it shuts down because the cord is
in my room and I can't reach the plug. When I'm better, I'll put the
computer back into the living room. Sorry for the story as to why I don't
have new pictures. I guess I could of just said no. lol.

Subject: Re: [QUAD-L] my flap
surgery
I recently healed over from a perineal abscess drain and closure that
started last August. Closed in Jan and again in April. I sat up
daily a lot in the middle of it so that prob didn't help any. It finally
closed by April 15th and now seems ok - that's about 9 months.
A real PIA so to speak. Fortunately most parts of the body heal
when cared for properly. Best of luck in your procedure - you've
been through a bunce the last year. May the healing gods smile on your
behind. Any pics?

OK, so I finally decided to go for the flap and it is on Wed. I'm
really nervous. The sore is tiny but deep so he is cutting my leg to
move the muscle to the sore which is almost to my butt.
So I have questions. I didn't realize how much he's going to cut
me. He said he is going to cut a v then a straight line towards my
knee which is a long cut. I don’t have feeling but I do feel the pain
from this sore and I have a bad reaction from morphine through IV so I'm
scared of the pain and healing time. The doc says about a month.
Have any of you gone through anything similar to this? Also the sore
is on my left side and in the past my bowel program only worked on that
side. I'm concerned about that as well with all of those staples in my
leg.
Any advice or information I might be missing out on I would love
it. My bday is July 3 and I would love to be healed by then. I
am staying in the hospital one to two weeks then coming home. My
neighbor who helps me with the waiver is going to make sure I have
meals. She only works a minimal amount of time with me but between her
and her mom, they are going to make sure I'm taken care of. THANK GOD
I DON’T HAVE TO GO TO A REHAB OR NURSING FACILITY. Whenever I go for
testing at the hospital the staff is really nice so I hope the nurses are as
well.
Oh and if you pray I would appreciate them,
Stacy
