Eyesa Horg Posted November 22, 2023 Author Posted November 22, 2023 Ellie was doing well yesterday! Will update this afternoon when I get home. We got several inches of snow last night, so should be a thrill a minute dodging the idiots on the road this morning!
Linn Keller, SASS 27332, BOLD 103 Posted November 22, 2023 Posted November 22, 2023 I'll spend longer on my Prayer Bones for you both!. Delighted your beautiful bride is on the mend, but if you've got to dodge folks with summer tires who plumb forgot how to drive in winter snow, I'll be imploring the Almighty for your safe and uneventful travels, as well as Miz Ellie's continued healing!
Eyesa Horg Posted November 22, 2023 Author Posted November 22, 2023 Thank goodness I'm pretty good at said dodging! Seems to happen every year! Some people, you know the ones that can't go over 20 on the Interstate that make me crazy!
Eyesa Horg Posted November 23, 2023 Author Posted November 23, 2023 It will be a Happy Thanksgiving . I got Ellie home at 7pm ET. All looks pretty dang good. THANK YOU PRAYER POSSE, you all and the Almighty above pulled her through! "Happy Thanksgiving to all" Eyesa
DeaconKC Posted November 23, 2023 Posted November 23, 2023 Great news! May God continue to give you both strength.
Linn Keller, SASS 27332, BOLD 103 Posted November 23, 2023 Posted November 23, 2023 DELIGHTED TO HEAR THIS! (yes it's all caps, I get excited when I read such good news!)
Canton Chris Posted November 23, 2023 Posted November 23, 2023 A most joyous occasion! Happy Thanksgiving to you both!
Eyesa Horg Posted November 23, 2023 Author Posted November 23, 2023 It really gives me something to be thankful for today. Sure is nice to have Ellie home this morning.
Eyesa Horg Posted January 4, 2024 Author Posted January 4, 2024 UPDATE: Well here I am again! Ellie goes in again in a few hours for hopefully her last surgery to reverse her iliostomy. Should be a 2-3 hour surgery. She is looking forward to being back to normal again. It's been a long road! We both thank you all so much for your support. I will post as I know more this evening. Thank you for your continued Prayers. Eyesa

Buckshot Bear Posted January 4, 2024 Posted January 4, 2024 All the very very best to Ellie with her surgery.
Eyesa Horg Posted January 4, 2024 Author Posted January 4, 2024 Still waiting to hear from the surgeon. Hospital running a little over 3 hours late when Ellie was finally taken into the OR. I'm getting impatient, but if there was any issue with doing the surgery, I believe I'd have heard by now. Hopefully soon.
Eyesa Horg Posted January 5, 2024 Author Posted January 5, 2024 YEE-HAW, just heard from the surgeon and "all went fine". Thank you so much for your thoughts and support. I will post more if an update after my visit tomorrow.

Eyesa Horg Posted January 5, 2024 Author Posted January 5, 2024 1/5/24 I'm in with Ellie now. She is feeling great! We are both so happy to have the ostomy pouch gone! Just saw the surgeon and he is happy as well. Just a bandage to cover the remaining hole so as it can heal from the inside out. Won't need packing, also good news! Thank you so much "Prayer Posse" Eyesa & Ellie

Thank you so much "Prayer Posse" Eyesa & Ellie Great news!! I’ve been through the “packing” thing and it’s no picnic. So glad that she’ll be able to forgo that! Y’all go out and have a big wingding of some kind as soon as she is able!!

That's why I'm so glad she doesn't have to deal with it. Especially since I'm the likely administrator!
Linn Keller, SASS 27332, BOLD 103 Posted January 6, 2024 Posted January 6, 2024 I'm reading the delightful news that her plumbing is back to industry standard and she's on the mend! Trouble is, I'm reading it just after 1 in the morning (woke up & couldn't get back to sleep) so no full-voiced WAHOO of celebration. Don't want the wife to think I hit the lottery or something. Still standing up on my knees for full healing without complications, and pickled tink she's not plagued with that packing!

She had the packing removed a half hour ago and wasn't amused. I'll bet! So far this morning, all is looking good for her getting home today. I'd be nice if we could beat the storm coming in today. However, it's not like I haven't driven in a blizzard before! Thank you for your kind thoughts.

If I had something like a Weasel or an APC, I'd fetch it out for your use to guarantee your safe travel! She'll be delighted to sleep under her own roof again! (Hey, the bed's more comfortable, the company's better and so is the cookin'!)

Eyesa Horg Posted January 7, 2024 Author Posted January 7, 2024 Thank you much Prayer Posse Finally got Ellie home last night after a 4 hour delay at the hospital! The surgeon gave the release ok to the nurses at 2:00, but forgot to issue the discharge orders! Took the nurses 4 hours to get them as we just sat there occupying a room! Got home just as the snow started. Ellie is feeling great and we are both so thankful to have her all put back together. She has just a little discomfort where the stoma was as it now has to heal from inside out. Just a small Band Aid covering the hole. YAY. Thank you all again for your thoughts and prayers that got us through the past 14 months. Eyesa
