Good morning my friends,I just put a call into my doc because I am in the bathroom all day.  I had to take 2 immodium last nite just so I could sleep.  My whole body hurts and I am hoping that the infection is not spreading. It might be something else, but  I don't know what.I started Christmas shopping for my grandbabies. I can't believe the toys they have for them. I got my grandson a riding toy that looks like a plane. It makes all kinds of rocket noises and there are toys on the dashboard. Since his dad is a pilot he should love that.Madison will be getting her first doll carriage and first doll house thanks to memaw.. that is what she calls me. I am thinking of getting her a subscription to a  book company where she gets new books every month. I know she loves books.Don't know what I will get my girls yet but jewelry is always an option.  I always do my shopping early but not this early. I am thinking if I do need the surgery that I probably won't  feel like shopping that much. Of course all my shopping is done on the computer so if I have to I can get in some last minute stuff.Talk to you guys soon.  luv ya lauriePS Have a pain free and happy weekend.

I\'m glad you called the doctor, he needs to know what\'s going on...so sorry you\'re still feeling so bad!!! The little plane toy sounds adorable...my son is a pilot, too, but he\'s hasn\'t graduated from college yet. You\'re really wise to start shopping so early, I should do the same thing...thank goodness we can buy online these days, isn\'t it! Hope the doctor has an answer for you, feel better. xxxooo

Oh you poor thing. I now what that feels like and it\'s such an aggravation. Colonoscopy? UGH~the prep!!! But at least you will have some real answers then.

My dear mom and I used to start our Christmas shopping eraly and have it done by Thanksgiving. Then we could enjoy the month baking, wrapping and decorating. I still try to do it thaat way but, it\'s hard when my endurance is so short.

Hope your weekend is comfortable and the stomach settles down...in my prayers.

Sorry you\'re having the digestive issues! Don\'t you wish you could just put your intestines to sleep for a while? I have the opposite problem, especially when taking Vicodin. It really does a number on me! I haven\'t even THOUGHT of Christmas shopping, yet. I\'m afraid my surgery will be around that time. It might be a rough Christmas, but I want to get it done before the end of the year, b/c I\'ve already met my deductible...lol You take care, girl, and thanks for your encouraging words, always. XOXOXO

Well, at least you\'ll have it over with. Less time to worry about it. Can\'t believe you\'re Christmas shopping already. I hven\'t even thought of it. But, I guess it really isn\'t that far off. Love and hugs, Vicki

The sooner you get the surgery over the better. The holidays will be here before we know it and you will want to be well for those grandkids. I usually am very involved with Christmas stuff by this time of year. I can\'t seem to get started this year. I guess I just have too much on my plate. I hope the surgery goes smoothly. Hugs and more hugs, Donna
