Dd1 has spent nearly 4 weeks in hospital for treatment and tests. Finally it was decided that her digestive system has almost ceased to operate and the only solution is a fairly big op and an ileostomy, which means a stoma bag.
She has accepted the inevitable and for the last few days has been psyching herself up for it. Today the due time came and went but eventually she was told they couldn't go ahead as emergencies had, of course, taken precedence.
I understand why this had happened but it it soooooo frustrating!
With luck, the op should be carried out tomorrow.
Another 3 weeks before she gets home so we'll get on with caring for 2 slightly confused but wonderfully resistant little people and will fit in hospital visits when we can.
I'd be grateful to hear of positive experiences of this op and coping with the aftermath.
How do you acknowledge Easter.
