Hello one and all.  After a long 5 1/2 days in the hospital.  I have returned home to continue my recouperation at home.

I am glad to back.  Sore as expected, having lost amazing amnt. of weight in the past week.

The Ileal Conduit Surgery itself was a success.  I have stoma that pills 24.7 into a bag.  At night I am hooked up to a

large catheter bag as I was in my days of 21 catheters.

This  is taxing, will write more soon,

David in SC

Glad you are home David, and that the surgery was a success. Hopefully you can now start to get your life back. Things just have to get better.

This site wasn't the same for the last 5 1/2 days.

Welcome home.

Did you NEED to lose weight? Man, that's the hard way to do it!!

They sell liquid diet stuff, high calorie, high protein.. Goes down easy..Makes you feel better..Boost is one brand, Fortify is another..
