Yeah...I'm ok. I just got back from the funeral of my close friend. It was hard and I'm emotionally wrung out. To see his two brothers (one is my best friend, the other my first love/lover) serving as pall bearers for their little brother nearly killed me. They are really suffering...as are 's parents. But I was proud of my men today. They really did well.

I'm not at work, trying to finish up some last minute stuff. I take tomorrow off, and hopefully will get a little time to rest (although I'm accompanying my friend and her husband to the hospital to deal with their situation). So...we'll see. Right now, I feel utterly exhausted.

But, I called this a.m. and my pee was fine. (That was in question for a while), so no need for pre-op anti-biotics....

And my sexy wonderful French friend is as fabulous as ever. Maybe even more so. He just is the best. Period. Always says exactly the right thing. I'm very lucky to have him in my corner right now...

Robynn--

What an emotionally exhausting day for you. I'm so sorry!

Your day is drawing near. Don't forget to take your Milk of Magnesia

tomorrow. I hope the drive to the hospital isn't too far. If it

works as well on you as it did on me, the 15 minute ride back and

forth to my sons school was torturous! That stuff cleans out good.

I'll pray for you and your friends and their very big decision to

make, as well as the family and friends of loved one they lost.

Can't wait to hear that you are safely on the other side!

Hugs,

Tina

Colleens milk of mag story

i was given instructions the day before surgery to do a milk of mag prep

but i had to go to SSF so it was a long drive, i had to get there by 11 am to do my pre op blood work and had a hotel for that night

i agonized over when to start the milk of mag, paranoid there would be an accident in the car, i never had taken anything like that

well i took it and prayed............ I had even tried to buy just one depends diaper but couldnt buy just one, well i never went at all, that day or the next day infact never had a poop till like 6 days after my surgery....................

OK YOU PEOPLE....NO MORE COMMENTS ABOUT SUCH UNPLEASANT PERSONAL ,Er, EARTHY THINGS. I mean, please...let me retain a modicum of dignity. The one area in my life where I am squeamish and modest is the RESTROOM. In 12 years of living with my husband, he never once saw me on the toilet. Nope. Not pretty, not romantic, not open for discussion.

Now, nudity...that's a different story. I'm the original nudist. In fact, the other day I was naked as a jay bird, leaning out on my balconies (yes, I do live in congested SF, why do you ask?) watering my plants, when the cute young guy who lives in the building across the way smiled and waved. I waved back...nonchalently got out of his way...and then tore down the hallway in a fit of embarrassment...just praying that I wasn' t suddenly playing the role of the 'Ugly Naked Guy" (only in this case, "girl") on Friends!!!

I mentioned the nudity incident to (the cutie French boy), and he said, 'Shame on you, pretty naked lady!" I thought that was pretty cute.

I took a few days off for my surgery before as well, just to get things in order and feel rested and at peace about things.......................I am proud of you Robynn, I had a friend hold my hand along the way,because we met the day before sugery after emailing for a month or so and we stayed at the same hotel the night before had dinner together, practically had a slumber party in the middle of the night the day of our surgery and we are so close now and we are going camping with our famlies together on the fourth of july weekend, I am so lucky and blessed with good things in my life. I am glad your french friend is keeping you alive and cared for, and I am sorry about your friends/extended family today...........they are lucky to have you in thier lives.

If I hook up with Gordy and on wed to go to the richmond support group meeting, maybe we will be able to say a quick hello to you after your surgery...................If you are sleeping and muttering things in french we will know not to wake you LOL !

take care

It sounds like your little alteration Wednesday, is going to be the

least stressful event in your week! Life passages are always huge

triggers. I hope you spent more time celebrating 's life than

mourning his death. He will live on on in all your hearts.

I'm sure your friends (reading between the lines) have made the

right decision. I'm also sure they are taking solice in your

support, at this most traumatic of times.

Ma petite merle, you've given so much of yourself to so many others

lately. Now it's your turn. Focus on you for the next few days,

will ya? You're worth it and you need/deserve it.

See you on the other side, ma cherie.

I'd love to see you. Just don't judge me if I have drool coming out of my mouth, or if I'm snoring. Trust me, I'm MUCH hotter when I haven't just had my guts sliced and diced....

As it was a Catholic funeral, it was pretty much focues on the gloom. But afterwards, at their house, we recounted stories. I remembered an apron he got me, over 25 years ago, that says, "Who invited all of these tacky people, anyway?" He had it made, because it was a comment I made once at a dinner party I hosted at his house. (Of course I was joking).

He was someone who was never mean to anybody. Except for the poor subsequent women who dated his older brother right after we broke up. I think he invited the "talk to the hand" thing when it came to them. ANd there was the one to whom he said, "You, my dear, are trash. Trash. Bob, how could you possibly go from BROOKE (his nickname for me) to that, that, that...trailer park throwaway?" Harsh, yes. Unlike him, yes and no. He was just protective of me, and totally wanted me for a sister in law.

He was right, she was trash...and Bob agreed. Fortunately, Bob wound up marrying a terrific lady who is very friendly with me.

Loyalty. My .

So I guess you don't want to hear about the bowel prep kit (Yep,

that's what it was called.) I had to take before my plastic surgery!

Put MO to shame! This stuff was the NY Yankees to MO's Toledo Mud

Hens. (LOL!)

Lol, girl you are in for a surprise. If it is sleep

you want...it is sleep you will get. Although I must

say because the staff kept coming in to take vitals,

give me shots, give me the asthma treatment, take my

diabetic reading and me taking myself on a stroll in

the hospital, I did not get sleep. Every hour someone

came in. So I spent the day/night looking at TV.

When I got home, it caught up with me and all I did

was sleep and when I was awake, I walked.

I am so excited for you Robynn. It feels like it is

my turn all over again.

Robynn--If that MOM works as well on you as it did on me, you might

want to invest in a small package of Attends (to catch any " accidents "

LOL). Luckily I was at my pre-op appointment on the day before my

surgery (in San Diego) when I had my acident. I had to borrow a

hospital gown until my hubby brought me some spare clothing to get

back to the hotel after class. Oy veh! But, you'll get through it,

I'm sure.

I wish the best for you for tomorrow, and I pray that God guides the

surgeon's hands.

I hope you get Ricky to do your IV. If you do give him a hug

from Pam and I cause we both loved him. No pain at all.

GOOD LUCK GIRLIE. I AM SO PROUD OF YOU!

We was fun but did the job like a magician. Nice looking black guy.

Was that him? I sure hope Robynn gets him today.

Yep, that was him. He was a hoot and it was the easiest IV I've ever

had put in! She probably got him. I think I heard him say that he

was the only one doing them for the early surgery.

Oh we didn't get away that easily at Fremont, they made us take Fleets! I

went all night long, and it was kind of embarrassing because I was at my

brothers house and kept worrying about waking them up! LaWanda At 09:01

Yep, I got him. Loved him. Not only was he nimble with the IV, but he explained everything really well, was courteous, funny, sassy and just did everything to make me feel very very comfortable. I had some great nurses, as well!!
