Cancer Center. Having not eaten for several weeks and pretty much unable to drink without pain, we met with Dr. Barry to see if surgery could help relieve my symptoms and help me gain some strength back. He sent us over to Dr. Doss who is willing to do the surgery but we decided to go to Moffitt and get a second opinion. We are SO happy that we did that.  We met with the surgeon and  finally feel like we’ve got some people looking out for us. They’re keeping me here today so I can eat and drink and we can observe. Fingers crossed.  Update:   Moffitt kept me 3 days and 2 nights. I finally pooped. Took a picture and showed it to the nurse and texted it to Hans. His response, “I love the shit out of you”.  I love the shit out of him too! 

(I have since deleted the picture…you are welcome!)
