In those days, we lived nearly an hour away from the nearest hospital because of bad roads (Now, improved). The parents had to keep stopping for me to upchuck. <br /><br />I also recall the asthma patients, barfight victims and a motorcycle accident victim were seen before me. We waited eight hours.<br /><br />Not only was <i>he</i> brave, but kudos to you, too, for weathering the emotional storm.Jaye Patrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05595648222196000153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4521732414174370892.post-66829824521588558832011-06-18T10:47:41.395+10:002011-06-18T10:47:41.395+10:00Erk.

Hope he is on the mend now.
"Adhesion...Argh! Hope he is on the mend now. <br /><br />"Adhesions" are when scar tissue ends up binding tissues together--in this case, it sounds like probably parts of the bowel were stuck together with scar tissue.<br /><br />Yes, he was very brave!Jennifer R.
