I truly believe you are an angel for helping Bobbi. I think she was near death before you gave her hope. For this, I am truly grateful. You have shown all of us that we can help one another not only by talking but by taking action. Thank you for all you have done for Bobbi. At least now she is resting and comfortable, which is something she has not been able to do in who knows how long. Thank you again, for helping Bobbi.

>Hi to all...hoping everyone is at least comfy today..
>Well we finally got Bobbi in to a Dr that had some sense..today..The Dr
>we saw..is a surgeon and a pain management Dr..also.
>So as Bobbi began to tell her story of 15 surgerys for adhesions..and
>her last surgeon who removed 8 inches of her colon and 111 inches of her
>intestines..the Dr looked quite concerned..and Bobbi kept telling him
>all that has been going on with her..and especially about the terrible
>pain the 25-30 BMs per day..the blood mucous and water that is the ony
>thing that ever comes out..the horrible swelling in her abdomen..well
>this Dr asked Bobbi why they removed her intestines and part of her
>colon and she did not know..so the Dr went and had her surgeon fax the
>records to him and do you know that...the surgeon DID NOT give any
>reason as to why he did these things to her...
>So this new Dr said well this is what i want to do...i want to admit you
>to the hospital and have a GI Dr look at you tonight and run some tests
>and get you comfortable..and he said...i dont want to do any surgery
>unless we cannot fix this problem with her bowels..otherwise..and he
>said the GI Doctor that Bobbi will be seeing is the very best in the
>state of Ar..and if you wait to have an office visit it will be at least
>3 -6 months..
>So tonight Bobbi is in the hospital and resting fairly comfortably
>(Which Bobbi has not had any relief from pain in months.)
>The GI Dr has already been to see her and he is very concerned about her
>situation..and said he will do a Colonoscopy at 8 am tomorrow
>morning..and she will have a battery of tests tomorrow too..
>and that they would go from there..and see what the best course of
>action is for her..
>So i will keep you all posted as to how things are going for Bobbi..I
>hope everyone will keep her in your prayers...she truly needs our
>prayers and our love and support..right now..
