In 2011, I thought I had the flu that was raging through the office. I was 43 then so I blew off the intestinal pangs I was experiencing. Then I was hit with the most intense pain in my life. I could not think, breath or blink. Then it was gone……WTH?!?!?

12 hours later I was in emergency surgery and septic. Had a tear in the Sigmoid Colon. CT showed free air and fluid in my abdomen. Another few hours and I would not have been able to pull out of it. Had an appliance for four months and then a second takedown surgery. It was hell for a very long time.

I now get to have these procedures a bit more frequently.

What’s my point, you may ask. These are a pain and it sucks going through the prep. It just may save your life. I was lucky, and I don’t care to go through that again. At 54, who knows if I would have survived.

Just sayin, stay strong and prep on.
