My neice who will be 18 on Dec. 8th is in the hospital and if anyone who believes in prayer could offer one for her we would appreciate it greatly. C has Crohn's disease and this summer began to have trouble with it. She didn't realize this was what it was, she just thought she was working too much etc. Since the beginning of the school yr she has been there maybe 10 days.
I won't go into all she has been through, but yesterday she had surgery for a couple things. She had a fistula, where her intestine had attached themselves to her bladder, she also had a really bad abcess they couldn't get under control. So yesterday she had surgery and they found that the fistula had perforated and there was a pretty big hole from the intestine into her bladder, so they had to detach it and repair the hole. Then they had to remove about a foot of intestine and the abcess that was causing a lot of her problems.
I guess she did pretty well, but she will be in the hospital for her 18th birthday. Poor kid has been through so much in the last few months. Hopefully she will be able to get back to school after the holidays. She is such a fiesty thing, she is a real fighter and I think she will fight her way through anything. Hopefully there won't be any more for her to deal with.
TIA!


Sending prayers her way!!
Thanks for the P and PT gals. She can use all of them.
These diseases are so tough to deal with, IBS is rotten too, they all seem related in some way.
Thanks again!
Of course, Kristie.
