my fiance's uncle just went to the hospital a few hours ago w/ severe abdominal pain. he has a bowel perferation and without sugery he'll die from the crap(litterally and figurateively) going into his abdomen. they were going to do an emergency surgery after two hours of antibiotics to fight off infection but they said that they cannot do the surgery tonight ebcause the infection is too bad. if the infection is lower tomorrow they'll do the surgery but if not...idk.
pretty much they said the cause could be a simple blockage that ruptured his bowel.
they said he may need a colostomy. meaning hell have a bag for the rest of his life.

please keep your fingers crossed and keep him in your mind and hearts he has a wife two kids (ages 12 and 2.)

hes still in the hospital. they put him on a liquid diet. they managed to do it w/o doing a colostomy. so he doesnt need a bag which is good. so things are better. now my grandma went in thursday and has been tehre ever since...she has pnemonia adn shes anemic and her blood count is low...they're thinking multiple myeloma...we just found out today. they're doing some bloodwork and then theyre going to check her bone marrow biopsy...then let us know.

thank you so much for the support guys. i'm super stressed right now. i'm going back to the hospital again today. gonna wait until around 12 or 1 to leave. i was just on the phone with my mom whos been staying with granny at the hospital and she had told me they took more blood at around 5am. and right after i asked if they'd heard anything, the doctor walked in and she hung up on me. so i'm just waiting for an answer right now.

thanks for the concern guys

You're welcome sweetie. Your grandmother sounds like a real character - I hope I have her spirit when I'm that age!
