Appendisitis

Hello,  my mom asked me to post for her. She had her appendix removed and is currently resting up in the hospital. She's going good and is in good spirits and will be home in a few days.

Thanks!

Kelly (Her oldest)

Tell your mom that "Jim" says hi and wishes her a speedy recovery.

You're a very good and thoughtful daughter, but I'm sure your mom knows that already.

My heart goes out to both of you. No one wants to be in the hospital esp. during the holidays. I hope she finds some relief from previous side effects when she heals from surgery. Take good care.
Wishing you and your mom a happy holiday and a healthy New Year!

Thank you, Kelly. It means a lot to hear from you about your mom. She's a wonderful, generous and dynamic person, and I miss her posts.

In her last post, she mentioned she'd lost her appetite big time, which is such a common symptom of appendix problems. I wonder if it was connected. Who would have thought that was going on, with so many other things to think about.

It's the best news possible that she's now safely taken care of that problem. Hope she gets some much-deserved rest in the hospital.

Warmest regards to you and your family.

I just read all your posts to my mom, she's lying on the bed at the moment resting up. She got home from the hospital this afternoon. Her appendix was perforated and starting to spread infection so we caught it at a good time.

She says to tell you thank you for your thoughts and well wishes it really perked her up. She says yes she has a wonderful daughter and is very lucky (which I remind her of whenever I can :P) She is thinking of all of you and will back soon.

She says hang in there yourselves! and she'll be talking to you soon.

I think it sounds great it was the appendix maybe your mom doesn´t need some meds she thought she needed then.
I hope for a speedy recovery and are sending hugs and love to you both and your whole family all the way from Sweden to Canada.

Hi Trish,
  I'm glad you're home from the hospital, and feeling better. I'm wishing you a speedy recovery, but pls take it easy, that's another huge assault on your body, when you're still recovering from tx. Take care.

So glad for the update.  It's always better to be home=)  Here's to hoping that this was the root of some of the probs that were going on.  

Thank goodness they got it when they did.  

I'm betting I won't be the only one to ask the docs to check my appendix next time my labs whack out, lol!


That's your mama...blazing trails.  

Please give her my best wishes for a speedy recovery.

Hi Trish,

I had an appendix one time too :o). Did thy catch it before it got too bad? Boy, I remember mine hurting really badly before I finally dealt with it; at least it’s one less thing to worry about now. I hope you recover well; let us know how it goes, OK?

Take care—

Bill
