Oh sweetie I read and I just cried had to pull myself together to post! I haven't read all the replies yet but YOUR NOT ALONE! I will write my story tomorrow and we are alike in most of this I'm 47 ! My life was turned upside down Feb will be 3 years. My husband is my rock but I don't know why he stays I hate myself I hate life and I just flip out and yell about the stupidest things and I'm mean to him just bc I'm angry and he's the one one here! They love us and fight for us so we do have to fight for us also! I hope you can get your reversal done! I have no hope for than in fact things are even worse and I fear what could be! Please feel free to private message me also if you ever need to! I for one am very happy i finally found others to help give me advice so maybe things will be easier for us! I have felt alone all this time! Thank goodness I was reading a blog I found which lead me here at this point it couldn't have been a mistake.
Hugs

Sassie,
WOW! You really faced some major challenges! Kudos for making it through and becoming such a positive woman. Hats off to you! I thought my 4-hr surgery was a lot -- it sounds paltry compared to what you went through. I'm not diminishing my experience -- or lifelong journey -- but ns2400's post certain brought out some powerful revelations.
So, here's to us. Those of us who've endured and still are doing so. And the sharing of info, support, humor, objectivity -- all of it.
ns2400, hope you post soon again. Wondering how you are doing and truly wishing you the best.
Karen/Button, wish I could borrow your pet for a night! I take care of my neighbor's cat, Jack, over Xmas when his fabulous owner drives to Buffalo. I'm more of a dog person but Jack is adorable, loving, feisty, and thinks boxing with me (claws trimmed, thank goodness) is much fun. Looking forward to taking care of this feline. Maybe someday, I'll get a pooch again. Definitely considering it for the future.
Happy Friday, all.

NS 4200:
I looking for info on here about pyoderma and I say I still struggle 6 months to the day since surgery that not has gone right but all say I need to accept things for what they are and I will get better much faster. I will say that your journey sounds in a way like mine.
have you found anyone to help with pyoderma on the forum here or providers for help as I am finding that nothing is lasting any time frame over 12 to usaully less than 24 hours before the wounds is leaking too much or stool has once again gotten thru the dam built to stop stool from going anywere but in the bag.
i am stressed from working full time around appointments that may not go as planned or longer than planned with only so many hours in a day to do my full shift.
thank you kathleen
