Many special prayers for a solution and you can get back to eating and get rid of that tube... Please keep us posted on your test results.

TeeTaa Posted June 25, 2004 Share Posted June 25, 2004 I think your posting is going to help TBone's frame of mind - so thanks! Think we can send you some of these fish to make into "dogfood" for that feeding tube? Seriously, hope your scope tomorrow goes well and that you'll soon be gobbling up real food. Then we WILL send you some fish!! (And french fries, hush puppies, and slaw. And yes, the fish will be fried - we are in Georgia, you know! Might even throw in some pickles and onions if you're extra nice!) Blessings, TeeTaa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SandyS Posted June 25, 2004 Share Posted June 25, 2004 Boy - it's so good to "see" you Bob! Good luck on your test tomorrow - and go get somethin' to eat, will ya? Boy that has to be a drag! Hugs and prayers, SandyS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just trying to look for a brighter side to the dogfood. P.S. I Love that sense of humor! Tee Taa, them thar fish look delicious! Did you all really catch all of those on your trip? Wow!

Margaret Posted June 25, 2004 Share Posted June 25, 2004 Welcome back, Bob. I'll be praying for you that the procedure shows that the repair can be easily and quickly completed so that you can get back to your normal way of getting nourishment (and hopefully giving up the dog food--my dog doesn't even eat dog food).

ginnyde Posted June 25, 2004 Share Posted June 25, 2004 Just saw this post, so I hope the test is over and the old esophagus is on the way to repair.

Lisa O Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 I am hoping in this case that the lack of news is good news and that we haven't heard anything cuz you are recuperating from the repair job!? I will be checking for news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hebbie Posted June 30, 2004 Share Posted June 30, 2004 Hey Bob -- Welcome Back!!!! I had an edoscopy done last summer -- I don't recall much about the procedure though, since they make you so darn loopy during it! I hope all went well and you are on the mend soon. That first bite of food is going to taste sooooooooo good!!!!!!! Take care of yourself, Heather Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiny Posted June 30, 2004 Share Posted June 30, 2004 Bob- You're always on my mind and in my prayers. Keep the faith, take as good care as you can, buy only "organic" dog food, and let us know soonest. Love and hugs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
