In the meantime here's a video of baby sloths to cheer you up. I feel closest to the one on the far left.

Get well soon Mark l’ll keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Had some minor procedures done where you are. If you’re dealing with Dr McKnight he’s one of the best.

Heal up quick Mark! We’ve got some brandy and coke drinking to do in a few weeks!

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.

What a horrible experience. I am hoping you make a speedy recovery. Take care and take it slow.

[Mark Biggerstaff]

Thank you all for all the thoughts and prayers, texts, and phone calls.
Today is a much better day.
I am stronger feeling. I am still on what is termed NPO. No fluids of any kind. My last drink of water was Sunday at 5:00 am.
I still have NG tube in draining stomach fluids. Small steps one day at a time for healing now.
Thank you all.

I had a nice phone call with Mark.
He is in good spirits and appreciated my call.
Hint, hint...
