...that's what we're supposed to do as advocates for our patients...I've stopped bowing down to doctor's as well...that happened years ago, when I realized that many don't have anymore-and sometimes less idea of what the hell's going on than I do...glad to hear of the progress my girl-keep it up!!!...
Hi Mary! Good to see you're up and about some! Just keep in mind that you need to let others take care of you (your daughter is doing a super job from the looks of it!) while you recuperate- you took care of others all of your life, so now it's your turn to be taken care of, luv. 
Karen is doing an excellent job of taking care of my needs. My appetite hasn't come back yet, so what she cooks is kinda tasteless, but I don't tell her that.
...I'm tasteless when I cook, it's like she and I are twins!....
I just got back from the surgeon. They took out the tube, and I just have a bandage on it now. It was a pelvic abyss, not a cyst as I was told in the hospital.
I asked if this could come back, and he told me that it shouldn't. I sure hope he's right.
I have to lay on my tummy or my left side for a few days so it will still drain from the hole there.
Karen watched them take out the staples, and the tube, and she said it was gross. I didn't really feel any of it thank goodness.

Hugs, prayers, and healing vibes being sent to Mary. May you feel better soon.
Continued healing vibes, Mary. May a complete recovery be just around the corner.
No tube is good tube. Keep getting better!!
Now if I could only get my strength back, I'd feel better.
Stay in touch with yer docs. I imagine they've told you that yer energy and strength will increase over time. I'm finding in some ways what I've had to go through is very inconvenient and that I have to be patient, especially where my strength is taking long a time returning. I'm still unable to get comfy in bed because I can't be on either side, just on my back because strength in my hip is taking a long time to return. I've never been a back sleeper, so I'm not sleeping well.
I'm sure our strength will return, Mary, it's just gonna take longer than what's convenient.
Healing take time, Mary. Get the rest you need and don't overdo or push yourself. Whatever you think "has to be done" can wait. Eat well, fluids, meds and only positives thoughts. The body feels those vibes. Think yourself healed and with strength. That which is manifested is before you.
The Nameless
M-O-O-N - That spells Nameless
Small steps Mary, your body has been through quite a bit lately, it needs time get better - bit by bit.
...yep Mary, rest and let the "machine" heal...and Frank?...catnaps are gonna be your best friend as you have probably discovered...
Healing vibes Mary. Take it easy, your body need time to heal.
Thanks guys. I don't do anything around the house. My daughter won't let me.
Frank, I know the feeling well of not being able to get comfortable. I can't sleep on my back either. I feel like I can't breathe right on my back. I can't sleep on my stomach either like the doctor wants me to. I do get on my left side as far as I can to get it to drain. He said that in a few days it should stop draining.
I go back to him in 4 weeks, then I go to the other surgeon that did the robotic surgery, then I go to my family doctor. Man, am I tired of going to doctors.

Wonderful news Mary! Good Gan! A pelvic ABYSS - that sounds terrifying!
Hope you're feeling good today Frank! Have some cheese and a Costco hotdog and it'll be OK. Are the hallucinations gone?
