Doing much better

I am recovering from the 2nd bowel obstruction much faster than the first one. When I got home from the hospital, I was so angry that I just started throwing things and yelling. I have never done that before in my life. I must say it was very cathartic. When I was feeling better, I wrote a letter to my surgeon letting him know about the terrible care I received from his colleague and asking that I never be treated by her again. I guess I am feeling "empowered"....which is a great feeling. I have felt such a lack of control in my life since all of this started.
I have my FINAL PET scan scheduled for this Fri at 8:30 AM. I am trying not to think too much about it but I am very nervous and scared.

GOOD for you!!!! That made me so mad when you told me about her! What a psychopath! People with her kind of bedside manner should not be allowed into medical school in the first place!
