NO GO........GOLIGHTLY
Some things never end........or in our case come out the end!!! :) Shantel is in a very serious situation at this time. She has a small bowel blockage which is a condition CFer's have to watch out for. We have been very fortunate to have avoided any serious blockage until yesterday. Her stomach is 36 inches around after 2 gallons of Golightly that didn't go and she is in severe pain. Last night they talked surgery which would be extremely dangerous for her......like life and death dangerous. So we want to avoid that option!! So today off we went to radiology for an enema.......and don't think it's like the enema's you are familiar with! It's a pickin missile!! Thanks to morphine she doesn't remember it and has been able to sleep this afternoon. Late this afternoon she had some small (oh so small!) success so we were very encouraged! Tomorrow we do it all again! We are praying that God will keep her safe as we navigate through another hurdle.

I am praying, and so are my kids and my Sunday School class (Deb said it was Ok to tell them). Last night broke my heart watching her in pain. Praying that the small success turns quickly into big success. Tell her I love her!!
