😊 Thank you!
I’m very nervous my surgery is tomorrow they are removing the right side of my colon detaching it from the small intestine, and then reattaching attaching plus removing some lymph nose around it.

You'll do just fine! The day of my surgery at Mayo they were performing 91 other surgeries. Just be sure to ask all the questions you want! Try to eat as soon as you can as the first bowel movement in the hospital is an important milestone! Good luck and prayers!

My surgical experience was similar to Roy's except I had the whole colon removed with 108 lymph nodes. I was blowing snow at our rural Minnesota home a day after getting released.

Hola !!! Como te sientes? Como salió la cirugía? Estás bien? Espero que muy bien, un abrazo
