my journey through recovering pt 1

kso, i was diagnosed with a tumour in june 2010 than i had to get surgery on aug 10th,2010 it was called the whipple procedure they take out hallf your pancreas annd the tumour attached to it, and half your stomach and hallf your small intesties and your spleen and gull bladder. I had a draining tube after surgery and was OUT of it for about a week, on morphine, i went home for 3 days, than had to back for 11 days getting a new tube inserted that i was awake for, and they had to put needles in my stomach to drain the abcesses from surgery. But i wouldnt of made it through without Paulina my roomate in the hospital. The prognosis was a SPEN tumour, a low grade mallignant so it was cancer but it didnt spread yet, the doctor said if he wouldve waited a week to do the surgery it wouldve been spread all over. So thank god for that, but now its almost been 3 months and im starting to get my energy back but not my weight, i weighed 140 and now i weight 100 :l sooo im cold all the time LMFAO ! but yeah thats my story thanks for listening!
