Back In The Hospital 3Rd Time :(

Yupp I was admitted tonight. The pneumonia is so bad that more than half my left lung is collapsed and filled with fluid. And there is still an abcess in my belly which they can't figure out. So I keep praying and hoping God gets me through this. The doc will most likely drain my lung tomorrow then he will perform surgery and go in to get a better look at the abcess. Oh this is quite the experience.

I'm so sorry you've had all these complications I myself know exactly what it's like having pneumonia I was hospitalized for it a couple years back and almost died from it....mine was due to negligent hospital staff and had nothing to do with my rny (only 15 weeks post op) but it was horrible! I hope that they can figure everything out quickly so that you can enjoy the benefits of having rny! Take care, get lots of rest, keep us updated.......and last but not least have a speedy recovery!

Oh my goodness... I'm so sorry you are going through all this. I really hope you start feeling better soon. Hang in there I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers!

I hope you get better soon. And that everything will go well for you.

thank you. praying has become one of my outlets :)

So sorry to hear of your woes. When praying remember to thank the Lord for good health. Claim it before it happens and trust and believe that it WILL happen!

Also I'm sending up a healing prayer as well...be strong baby girl and all is going to be alright.
