:frown:Okay, so I just drank the heinous bowel prep for the very last time--I must say that it feels wonderful saying! I swear I have just drank liquid Draino---my small intestine is going up in flames---so here comes the large intestine. I do no solid foods for 2-3 days--then a ten ounce bottle of magnesium citrate followed by 4 laxative pills. It is awful. I also am eating Zofran like candy so I don't get the dry heaves--ya know the kind that you barf bile and rip every muscle you have in your tummy and back? So I am trying to be brave--but find myself a bit teary. Did I tell you that I also have a Christmas Program to go to tonight? It's strange to think I will have no colon or rectum and an ileostomy this time tomorrow. Just venting! I'm ready to be done and recovered and home with the kids. Impatient. Thanks for listening! :rosette1: Snap
