Hi! I was just wondering if there were any June - July maybe even August sleevers around? My last app is May 7th or so and am getting really excited to get this moving. I have an app the 12th just a week n a day away then the final one, yes I know I'm goofy thats just how I get when I get excited! Anyway let me know, have a great day!

I had my original surgery June 14th. Leak repair, abdominal wash on the 21st. Stent placed a few days later. Went home for a few days and readmitted (sepsis) had to have abdominal tubes. Back on July 16th sepsis again, CDiff. Collapsed lung and thoracotomy on July 26th. I was on the hospital a little over seven weeks. I am pretty miserable and on short term disability. Having a very difficult time and in the anger and regret stage. I am 41 and was in pretty decent health (thank goodness or I would not have made it) I still have a leak (they called contained) and we just have to watch and wait. I have to live with the constant fear of it happening again.

I was scared to share my story because I know many people who have had this surgery with no difficulty at all but I strongly suggest you consider that this could happen. I just received my first statement from my June (2 week hospital stay) and it was 206,000$. I haven't received the statement for the month long stay in July. This has definitely emotionally and financially put my life in a tailspin. Just want people to be aware.
