This poor woman!

I just had intestinal surgery, my doc told me that normally when he does the surgery (prolapsed intestine), he always removes a portion of the intestine (I think he said 2ft.also). With his IBS patients and this particular procedure, he never removes any intestine. This could cause those who have D, so many more problems. He tacked my intestine to my tail bone, the problem with this is, in some people the tacked portions can tear loose, thus, having to repeat......OH, I PRAY THAT NEVER HAPPENS!!

I was blessed to have my surgeon, he is the top COLORECTAL SURGEON, in Houston. Methodist Hospital, people come from all over the world to see him!!!! I worry for so many who have medical care like the lady you are talking about. She has been through an awful lot, having a baby to take care of on top of that.........prayers for her!!!!
