One year ago today I had my surgery one year ago today . It’s really hard to believe it was only a year ago, the scar on my belly is a constant reminder of the 64 staples . Here’s a recap - @ home again, facing the inevitable, Incredible Shrinking Frank, It’s official - I have a date with my surgeon, Post From DIARIST on my XDA II, surgery over, Unexpected benefit of MSN Spaces, big news day So, how am I doing these days?   Well, I’m feeling much better, that’s for sure! I have slacked off with my exercising for the last few months, which isn’t good. I need to get back into that.I’ve put a bit of the weight back on, which also isn’t good. I’m taking some time off over the next few weeks. It’s school holidays in NSW, so I need to help my wife wrangle the 4 kids. Well actually my 2 big boys will be playing with the XBOX 360 for the next little while, so I’ll be wrangling the 2 little ones. The odds are in our favour - 2 adults to 2 kids. Or are they?? To the 200 folks heading to Wagga for CodeCampOZ - have a great time. I’m sorry I wont be there again this year Catch you all in May!!

I had my total proctocolectomy in 2001 and now have a permanent ileostomy. You’ll be pleased to hear that a bloke’s geekiness can survive without any colon at all. Good luck with the kid wrangling! — MikeFitz Anonymous June 09, 2009 PingBack from http://besteyecreamsite.info/story.php?id=2734 Additional resources Last updated on 2006-04-12
