As many of you know, I was diagnosed with a neuroendocrine pancreatic tumor in 2009. My tumor was small and slow growing, and I did NOT have regular pancreatic cancer. You may also know that this was my third cancer diagnosis, therefore, the title of my blog. I am grateful that you are reading this. I'm quite certain that your support and prayers helped me survive.

12 Days Post surgery
While things seemed to be going smoothly in the beginning, it seems that my recovery took a turn for the worse a few days ago. When they took out the NG tube initially, I did OK, and then proceeded to throw up continuously. I have since had 2 more NG tubes inserted (yes, while awake), and I'm not healing according to plan. It looks like I'll be in here at least until the weekend. I have so much to write about, but so little energy to work with. I know I'll get well soon and will out of this hospital with a renewed optimism about my health and recovery. To be continued soon.
