Still feeling mentally and physically tired, but the pain is gone, the new stomi system is easing the haematosis and I haven't loss any blood today ... I could see it drain from the sides of the bandages. So tonight is rest for the head and the body ... Thank you all for your support... great thanks to (((Solo))) and (((Missing_the_sunshine))) who both so caringly stood by me Sunday to Monday during the worst part of my pain. So grateful for forum friends...
