10 Days Post Op. Quick Update.

Sept. 16 - bypass surgery.  It looked successful.

Sept.  18 - learned that there was a leak and bleading internally.  Received 10 blood transfusions in total.  Got transferred to St. Boniface.  Had second surgery for repairs: 4 hrs.

Sept. 19 - recovery begins.  Leak and blood lause caused a lot of damage.  I have 2 partially collapsed lungs (from pressure of internal bleeding) and my bowels and intestines are covered in dry blood.

System has slowly begun to repair.  Today I am still in pain, extremely bloated, and on oxygen and morphine.

---------
I will post a long blog about my feelings on this when I am physically healthier.  I am improving more every day.

I can't go through something like this and not mention my faith.  I thank God that He is at my side everyday.  I have joy, no fear, and steady healing.  THANK YOU TO ALL to have shown your support and prayer!!

I'll be back eventually.  :)
