Hi Leo,

Glad to hear the operation went well and that you're being looked after really well.

Hope you're back on your feet and fully recovered soonest.

Take care.

Great news Leo, Here’s to a successful recovery. Stay well. Garviv

Take it steady Leo,you can feel incredibly tired post op and some people get emotional too.Love Jane xx

Mrs Leo a retired nurse will be very strict with me Jane. Good advice eon emotional impact 

I’m glad Mrs Leo will be strict.You have to balance keeping active with not  overdoing it.I was ordered back to my room a couple of times by the nurse in charge.She said I had done enough walking for the day.I was desperate to get the bowels working again and failed miserably.I hope you have better luck as I don’t recommend Ileus  

The stoma Is easier to manage once you lose all the tubes,drip stands etc and you get more confident with practice.

Take care Love Jane xx

Fabulous news, so glad it all went well for you Leo onwards and upwards to a new chapter of living life to the full. Big hugs love Lynn.

Hi Leo,

Welcome to the club. You sound great and from now it's onwards and upwards. 

All the best,

Great news. Just take things slow & steady - go too fast & you'll pay for it the next day. Lots of rest, frequent snacks and drinks, and gradually build up walking, you'll soon feel more normal. Don't be surprised if emotions are bit extreme/up & down over the recovery period. Very best wishes.

 winkers60  ace post Jane, right on. I have a great stoma nurse who will call by for a few weeks. Guts are a bit of future concern  though, Leo

Fingers crossed you won’t get Ileus but some bowel disruption is common post op.I only had constipation but some get diarrhoea or both just to be aware.x
