I have this surgeon friend who pulled out of hospital practice here and went to Ripley. I still travel to see him because he's to the point and good at what he does. The last time I tried to get a colonoscopy prior to the expected reversal, the OPS center was going to charge me a 200 buck "facility fee" because it hadn't been five years since I'd had one. There's been a lot going on with my guts since five years ago. It would not be a screening but a diagnostic in an intestine that ends with an illeocolostomy. I figure since there's no rectum it's through the stoma. OMG. But that's a little thing compared to what others are fighting with. Reaves' Mommy Kim is neck deep in chemo for breast cancer and is suffering mightily. She's a fighter so it's all good.
My friend lost her son recently and is headed here to bury him in a couple of days. We go like alllll the way back and then some. I will be there with her along with many family and friends. Not just for visitation but for the long haul. She and I used to babysit Tommy on snow days and play Voice of the Mummy. We had a secret club in junior high called 3-M company. I still have a book from her signed "Love in 3-M"
My daily regimen now is peroxide and neosporin for these abrasions. Lucky for me I'm "almost a nurse."
Y'all be chill and love the one you're with ^j^
