Rest your fears with God. He will guide your dr
through your surgeory, and then it will be the best
one you've ever had, he will fix the bowel problem and
you will be relieved of pain. And don't think
negative. Have hopes that this surgeory will fix you
for a long time. There may be alot of bad drs. (more
than good). But, you can't have bad drs. without the
good drs...Talk to your dr. about your concerns so you
may gain confidence with him. Did you check his record
on the "abms" sight? I don't know it off hand. I got
it from this site and researched. One of my docs had
a malpractice suit. My current one is clean. So, I
believe I will be healed. And if not, I'll enjoy any
pain free days I get. I bet you would, too. Hang on
to that thought. I pray for you that you're surgeory
goes perfectly. Please keep us up-to-date. Marianne
