Yep, two more abscesses so they went in and took out gnarled section of 12" small bowell that was diseased, wrapped around the appendix and was trying to shove that whole mess in my pelvix.

Take out on Thursday, I'm up and walking a lot. Home this week?

Wow what a weekend you had!! Here's hoping that all heals up well and you are able to go home soon. And most importantly, lets hope this leads to a long long remission for you. Make sure you get back on some type of maintenance meds. I was told after my first resection I no longer needed meds, and ended up having to have another resection only 3 years later. Don't want the same to happen to you. Hugs!

Yikes. You sound so sanguine about it! I hope this leads to feeling much, much better.
