    Take it easy for a bit Lee and don't push yourself too much. You're in my thoughts and prayers.

    Hey Ladylee,

    Some good old J.W. books are good for throwing up on.

    They soak up well

    As you throw up on selected pages it even might make you feel better as you barf.

    Glad your okay, and keep us posted as to results.

    love

    special k

    A couple of thoughts about this

    During the intake the abuse by my father came up (which is how I believe I got this). The nurse was very nice and sympathetic. Actually I think if my father had walked in he would have been missing his eyeballs as he was taken to the emergency ward.

    When I woke up I was in a lot of pain. The nurse asked how I was and I started crying. She asked how I was and I was able to mutter "Upset" and she asked "why?" All I had going through my head were thoughts of how my father did this to me. And I sobbed even harder. Poor nurse I don't think she quite knew what to make of my answer.

    As much as I want to think this is behind me it isn't. It comes back and has the power to hurt me all over again.

    I know I can deal with it but it is such a pain. Quite literally right now. Damn good thing he is dead now. I might be paying him a visit and wreck some havok on his family jewels and see how he likes it.

    I hate crying in public. Hate trying to explain it to anybody. Expecially well-meaning professionals who have not been anywheres near the kind of agonies I have faced. I would rather joke around with war vets.

    Glad you are back and ready for another go. As Andy Sipowicz (NYPD Blue) elegantly expressed to his friend recovering from colon cancer, "Good luck with your first dump."
