Guest guest Posted May 4, 2009 Report Share Posted May 4, 2009 Hi everyone, I wanted to thank everyone on list for for both posting and emailing me directly. It is wonderful being so supported. As I am just recovering from a bowel obstruction and am planning major surgery I don't have much " space " to be online a lot... I was wondering if anyone has preparation tips for surgery? Hospital stay? Any questions I should ask? Pitfalls that anyone encountered in the hospital while being on the diet? Or just any tidbits of wisdom to share would be graciously accepted. I wanted to thank everyone from the depths of my heart. I have been on the diet since Sept 2007 (I actually really looked it up this time!) The SCD has been the most amazing journey for me to find some respite in the storm of Crohn's. The SCD has taken me on an adventure to regain my health thus regaining hope. I am truly, always, utterly and profoundly grateful to Dr Haas, Elaine G and all of the countless volunteers (pointing right at you Marilyn and Gay) that have helped me on this ride. I could not of done all of this without all of you, without the SCD community. I truly did not think I would be -here- in this situation.. Having my insides scarred so badly. I hope and pray that this surgery will gift me with new freedom of health and renewal to get over this awful disease. I have hope and faith it will work so I hope you all pray for me and send me good vibes. Much love and gratitude. My surgery is schedules Monday May 11th with a Miralax prep the day before. That morning of surgery I also get an epidural. I will have my brother post updates about me. His name is aka Jodi's brother) Thanks again.. Jodi herself.
