OT...BRACING for a stressful week...I could use some good thoughts..

tomorrow I am booked for a colonoscopy. I need it done since my Dad died of colon cancer in his early 60's. I have now reached that prime age of 50 plus and so that means like it or not..get tested. the prep sucks but part of the procedure.

On Wednesday morning surgery is booked to have all the teeth in my lower jaw taken out. they are also correcting my backward bite. this is really playing big on my stress level. I will try it first with the full denture on the bottom, have a full denture on top already and see how it goes. if I have major issues will then look at implants and partial plate on the bottom.
bought tons of mush foods yesterday. did not realize that there was that much to choose from.
my teeth got rotted out due to Gerd..an esophagus disorder. I was told to expect the jaw and teeth to take a long time to heal properly.

I had to leave home with a tyrant..with 2 weeks to go to the life threatening surgery..so should have no problem with these two procedures. I got Bella when I got home with the staples in me from the open chest surgery. My ex still has not settled and decided to send an offer right in the center of all this other stuff going on...4 years to the day that I left almost. his offer sucks so the legal issues are really stressful right now too.

I am tough ..lol but could use some good thoughts.
lets hope the dogs co-operate as well and behave.
I will rest when they do..

Will be thinking of you.

Prayers of strength to you Pat

I hope everything goes smoothly. I know you will be ok, you are a very strong woman. Many prayers coming your way for good health, strength and some easy time ahead.

Wow, talk about everything hitting the fan at once!

They give good drugs for the colonoscopy, so it won't be bad. You probably won't remember it. Like you said, the prep is the worst part.
Lots of good thoughts and prayers on the surgery. Just think, once you've recovered, you're gonna have a whole new look! Talk about a makeover!
As for the soon-to-be-but-not-soon-enough ex, I hear ya. Going through the same thing, myself. Keep your head high.

The best part of my life with animals is the humility they teach and the humanity the foster.

one thing at a time. I know it's hard, but try not to worry about everything all at once.
I will be praying for you!
I can imagine eating mush foods will get old, maybe try baby food deserts. The apple stuff is pretty good, and the bananas...

Yes, it does

I beat you it too 13 years to get mine.

Right now your health is most important put the papers away and try not to think about them. You need to focus on yourself and feeling better.

If he has waited four years he can wait a little longer. You need to be in good health to make the right choices for your self. Good luck with all this.

Hug your bullies and pugs for me tonight.

Sending good thoughts that everything will work out

Sending good thoughts, vibes and prayers....

divorce sucks big time.........my ex is really dragging...

he just sent in his proposal now and since it sucks and I will not be feeling well he will have to wait a bit on me for a change.
he has one heck of a temper and has big issues
but 4 years is way to long to be settling this..

Sending you thoughts for peace and healing!

Wishing you comfort!

Good thoughts and prayers coming your way.

We pray for you this week that all goes ok.

As for your divorce I know what you are going through. I hope you can work something out and soon.

~~~~~~~~thanks~~~~~~~

in my Dad's family. 3 out of 5 kids had bowel cancer. he lost his Dad to bowel cancer at the age of 40. and his sister to it at the age of 28. so guess this needs to be done tomorrow for sure..

as fas as my teeth are concerned. at least my mouth will not be sore anymore.. I have a really bad infected tooth right now ..and best to get this done as soon as possible. my jaw had always had the backwards bite so...that needs to be fixed too.

good thing I talk the dogs hand signs for the deaf dog study..lol. have a feeling I will not be doing much talking for the first few days after surgery or longer.
I will be using more text messaging too..should be a pro at it in no time. text messaging is not one of favourite things to do.

thanks again for your support
