OH THAT IS GOOD NEWS!!!!!!

YEP. ONE OF MY FRIENDS HAD THAT HAPPEN IN HER TWENTIES. THE APPENDIX

RUPTURED & ENCAPUSALATED. THEN GANGRENE SET IN AFTER A FEW MONTHS AFTER

IT RUPTURED> SHE HAD A COLOSTOMY FOR A LONG TIME. SHE's LOST QUITE A

BIT OF HER INTESTINES OVER THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS & HAS ADHESIONS &

STUFF. THE DOCTORS EXPECT HER LIFE EXPECTANCY TO BE SHORTENED BECAUSE

OF ALL THE SEVERE HEALTH PROBLEMS IT HAS CAUSED.

SO DAUGHTER IS SO VERY LUCKY THAT IT WAS CAUGHT BEFORE THE POCKET IT

CREATED LEAKED BADLY!!!! MAN SHE MUST HAVE BEEN IN A LOT OF PAIN &

FEELING YUKKY FOR QUITE A WHILE NOW> I AM SO GLAD SHE DOSEN'T HAVE TO

GO THRU THE NIGHTMARE IT CAN BE! ALTHOUGH I KNOW SHE IS NOT COMFORTABLE

RIGHT NOW--WHAT SHE HAD IS SO DANGEROUS, AND HARD TO DETECT. BLESSINGS

TO HER. I HOPE SHE HEALS QUICKLY.

HUGS, CARO
