Update
I want to start by thanking all those who have wrote messages to me privately an also in the forum rooms.
I am still in the hospital waiting to hear from the doctor to see whether or not they will do surgery or just wait it out.
For those of you that don't know, Thuresday night i was attempting to make my daughter costume for a halloween party that her and her fiance are attending. I had a stick pin {the one with the ball at the end of it}in my mouth. I was waiting for her to cut the fabric so i could pin it to the petti coat and i thought she was a little to close and i sucked ithe pin into my throat there for swallowing it. I was rush to the er where they were going to try to get it out and send me home but they took to long and it went farther down into my stomach. It has been there since Friday. They gave me a cocktail called go lightly. LOl For those of you who have had a colonoscopy knows exactly what that is. It is to cleanse your bowels / intestines. So for the last 4 days i have been running to the bathroom hoping to pass the dam thing. Needless to say it has not passed. I am now waiting to hear from the GI specialist to discuss the next step in my care whether we still wait or we remove it surgicaly.
I have tp say the only way i am keeping my sanity is by the Ativan i get and by all the kind greetings i am receiveing from here and on my facebook. So i thank you. I consider you all a part of my family and look forward to hearing from you all. Many blessings to you all
thank you again.

Erika, we are all following your trouble. I can't imagine the nerves it is taking to stay in that hospital bed. We are praying that you pass it and Landon and Lynn have done every bad pun that they can come up with. I hate that you mentioned the go litely not only to I have a colonoscopy scheduled on the 24th but this will give them more opportunities to pun. Stay strong and know we are all rooting for you.

Lots of hugs and good cheer. Hope you pass it and don't have to have the surgery. Keep smiling, and crocheting will help pass the time.
