Don,
I can identify with the poop shute not working, I still have problems on and off. Its just another after effect but will get better as the time goes on. So nice you had a good time on vacation. Bet the sun did you some good. The news about your deversion sounds good as well, no diapers in the day, right?? I AM HAPPY FOR YOU, DRINK MILKSHAKES IF IT DOESN'T GIVE YOU A MUCOUS PROBLEM...THATS HOW I PUT MY WEIGHT ON, GINGER WENT OUT AND BOUGHT ME ONE EVERYDAY, ALONG WITH GOOD FOOD!!
Take Care,,,,,,Gene

:) Well We are back from a 3 week vacation out west including a cruise. I was to early for the cruise hardly no apptite, still now I really need a meal I know and like to get excited over eating. But it was nice seeing the rest of family enjoy the cruse. My weight is still dowm 20 pounds from day before surgery weight. I was 10 pounds over what I needed to be. All my cloths fit a little lose now. I am a private pilot and I got my FAA medical back yesterday that was a big thing for me.That means I can fly again and do my charity missions. It is not good to have had bc but great to be part of a medical miricle. I am so thankful to my surgens and to all that have helped me along the way. I know the robotics are a huge part of my fast recovery. I was determind to do well and prayed every night, to get past the next hurdle. I still have a little trouble with the poop shute issue but working on it. On the other hand I am not leaking day or night as long as I do not go past 4 hours sometimes longer to void. I hold 500 to 550 CC. once in awhile I forget and go to 600 not a good idea I dont want to get floppy bladder. Also want to add this forum has helped me know what to ecpect and look out for. The calls from some of you were a big help. I am trying to help others with there choices. Thanks again to all that helped me and for your understanding. Thanks for puting up with my bad spelling also. Don Skypilot again :)

Hanging in there!
