When can this end? Does this end???

When? We can only guess for now I think. I do feel that I am on the correct path even if it seems to not reach very far very fast. But, it's not a race to the end after all. I use to ask Rollie if he was in a hurry to die as he never enjoyed the "journey" just rushed through all of that to get to the final result. I always saw that as such a waste of great things and time! I am in no hurry to die. It might feel that way at times but I know better. Yesterdays procedure at the St Mary's Surgery Center turned out to be an all day event. I got home near 8pm and couldn't sleep at all. Too much pain, too many thoughts. Glad it is history now though! Once the swelling from the stitches goes down the stoma should only be about an inch in length compared to the 2-3 inches it was. With luck it will stop the urinary infections or at least lessen the number of them. Keep your fingers crossed this procedure does the trick~
