Yes, I sure don't miss mine. Just a question - I'm not familiar with a sub total proctocolectomy. What parts would they leave and why?

And 5 months seems like a long time to think about it. Wsa that your choice or just your surgeon's schedule?
 
As far as I know the subtotal part is referring to the fact they will be able to reverse it if want then to eventually. So i assume there will be some left near the rectum.

The date was my choosing. I figured t would give me enough time to sort out duties at work, save up/apply for temporary disability, plan at least two raging parties and if I'm lucky a trip to Cuba. I'm going to make sure that it is dead before it leaves.

I'm going to be honest,Astra's post confused me, I saw no issue with the date 2010 until you mentioned it now. But in my defence I spent the entire day pulling and analysing sales data from last year, I typed out 2010 approximately 216 times today.
 
Haha, when I first saw your thread I thought..............What the hell!!! You had your colon removed back in June! Then what have you been rabbiting on about for the past few months!!!

Counting down with ya von........................GOOD LUCK!!!!!!

Dusty. :)
