Well, it looks like I get the joys of surgery in the morning. I left work early today with stomach pains, and it turns out I have some kinda of hernia affecting the small intestines. So i have surgery in the morning to correct it and am off work for at least 2 weeks.

Yuck! Good luck man. I had stomach surgery a couple months ago and the first 2 weeks is rough. I coughed about a week after and it sent me to the emergency room.

Just make sure they give you good drugs, so you don't feel a thing..... ;D
Take it from me...when I was in the hospital for a week I had 3 surgeries, plus my kidney pain issues, so I was on demoral and Morphine for 6 days....
I hope you don't have any complications...we'll be keeping you in our thoughts and prayers!

No thanks to the way corporations no operate, I could have lost my job if I had the surgery now. I was a whole 12 days from a year on the job, so I would have missed to many days. Thankfully, the Dr. said that as long as I stay on a liguid diet, i will be ok until the 1st. So I get to drink soup, ensure and broth.

You are going to be dropping some ponds if you can only do liquids until the 1st. My only advice would be stock up on jello

Its not all that bad though. I can have pudding, apple sauce and other smooth foods. Tomato soup has been one of my saviors.
