All of them are very good though. <br /><br />When I was a small child, I was extremely frightened of those big male mandrills with the brightly colored faces.

Is it the pain medication (morphine?) that's causing the "going berserk" problem? Will the doctors do more surgery to attempt to remove the scar tissue? Patsy's daughter must be very worried about this whole situation, and it's kind of you to be so sensitive to her needs. <br /><br />Annie, I'm glad you liked the photos. There's no doubt in my mind that there'll be more photos in this "mistake series" in the future.Linda@VShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04499621332375290781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21612081.post-85805088173261548142007-02-01T09:49:00.000-06:002007-02-01T09:49:00.000-06:00You are demonstrating here one of those little "tr...You are demonstrating here one of those little "truths" I live by, that there is almost always something salvageable in everything we do.

Erin says it is common in old folks who are on a lot of meds and even afraid of the hospital...when the sun goes down Patsy goes a little berserk. <br /><br />She is not doing well. Back in ICU.<br />Erin does think she will pull through. They have called her family to her bedside once. She has had 3 operations on this hernia. He said the scar tissue was all in the intestines. The Dr. did not give us a lot of hope, but we will see. I think I can post all this here as her daughter willnot see it. Patsy's daughter lives with her...she is able to work and care for herself, but has what I would call "low IQ". I try not to post anything that would frighten her. <br /><br />BettyGalla Creekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15765021266883258286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21612081.post-7783267763099962982007-01-31T22:13:00.000-06:002007-01-31T22:13:00.000-06:00I'm glad I wasn't the only one who needs Dramamine...I'm glad I wasn't the only one who needs Dramamine!
