Prayers to you Mark. Please give us an update as soon as you can. We are looking forward to good news brother!
Thank you all for the prayers and support. Prayers do work.
Here is a condensed version of what has happened. I went in last Thursday for colon. surgery, severe diverticulitis. They removed the entire Sigmoid Colon section.
Friday and Saturday normal recovery
Sunday started feeling bad. Light fever and chills. I was on a liquid diet. So only beef broth water and juices. About 4 o'clock started vomiting and nausea.
X-rays and Ct done. Colon had stopped working. Food just sitting in stomach and colon appear empty. Nasal tubed at 8 pm.
It's now 3:30 am. 6 liters of bile pumped out.
Now waiting for Dr make rounds in morning. See what is next. Can't sleep with all these tubes. So wanted update you all.
Guys I have been thru a lot of surgery's. But nothing this painful or scary.
Thanks for all the support.

Good morning John, I just read your setup procedure for the northstar duplicator ator. I found it very hand and I did learn some things. I have the same machine and I am having a problem i can not figure out and was hoping you could shed some light on the subject.
