Lynn thanks for posting.
Today Dan is pretty sore and in lots of pain.
Earlier today they took him down for some test, can't spell it , and they found that he has a blockage, the Dr. thinks it maybe just swelling so I sure hope so and so does he........

Peter, Just think now he can chase you around too. You don't have to do all the work LMAO!
\:D/

Honey, Dan NEVER had to chase me. Daniel had me at "Hello". :smurf:

Dan Knows my wife went through hell with hers at first BUT she thinks it was worth it. Have a good Variety of Jell-o Stocked up. He will be thankful when he can move up to Mashed Potatoes. He will only be able to MAYBE eat 1/2 cup of anything and get sick a lot at first so a supply of small trash baggies will come in handy.

On The more Serious note. (yeah i know its hard to believe that i can try and be serious) He will discover that pills don't completely dissolve.
SO when they decide he needs to add calcium to his diet he will need to get something like the chewable vitamins/calcium suppliments (available chocolate flavored at wally world)

At some point they will recommend Biotin supplements to help his hair.

Feelin alot better now . still have some belly pain but thats to be expected . its gonna be hard getting used to eating so little , but hey i did it before . my average size meal right now is a 2oz of sugar free jello or 2oz of chicken or beef broth & man you REALLY know it when your full now . just my pills in the morning or night are enough to fill me ...lol but on the bright side i'm off all my diabetes meds , he kept me on half strengh metphormin just in case but i haven't needed it yet . my average numbers are 125 to 115 without meds , but i'm sure it will go up a bit after i start eating more .

Thanx everybody for your concerns & prayers . its still amazing how much everyone here is like family . Even you petey !!!with all your snide remarks & comments , i know you still love me !!! :heart: :heart: & just think petey , when i bend you over the picknic table this year , my belly won't interfere like before !!!!! :muhaha: :muhaha: :muhaha: :muhaha: :muhaha:
