How about a bolster pillow to put under her knees, to take some of the strain off?
Early: So is it still her room when it's empty? Does the room, the thing, have purpose? Or do we -- what's the word? Simon: I really can't help you. Early: The plan is to take your sister. Get the reward, which is substantial. 'Imbue.' That's the word.

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Thanks, Jessica! These recipes sound delicious.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Lots of ma, Drew.
ION, I just realized that the mid-Atlantic region has two different grocery store chains called Giant. Odd. One of them is mostly around the DC region, and the other is mostly in PA with some stores in surrounding states, but they've both got stores in Maryland and Virginia.

Drew, did they rule out ulcers? I ask because my 14-year-old's best buddy had the same symptoms (although not after surgery - more out of the blue) and they couldn't come up with anything until they scoped him and found the ulcer.

An ulcer is on my list. I don't believe they've looked into it yet, initially the elevated liver enzymes is what got everyone's attention, though they still haven't found a definitive cause for that. I think the focus has been on something related to the surgery since I just had it, but I'm now planning on bringing up a course of action that looks beyond things related to the surgery.

I hope they find it quick and it's a snap to treat. 'Cause being able to eat is good!

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
ND, tons of health~ma. Gad this can be frustrating. Remember when I was in hospital a couple years back for lower GI blockage? This reminds me of that. "Dunno what caused it, can't see it, so we'll just stick a tube up your nose into your GI and suck everything out ." (Spoiler font for squeemish). I think I'm free this weekend. Let me know if you want a little distraction. Maybe some Xbox/Wii/PS2/board game/general chatting?

Comes to think about it, I have never seen a golf cart IRL. I think. Plenty of motorized carts for the elderly, but not one real golf cart.Remind me when you come to visit. We'll go to a golf course down the street from me.
Speaking of golf carts. I am certified to drive one now! Woot! I aced the exam, 10/10! (Dear jeebus, be afraid of anyone who didn't get 10/10, as it was open book).

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Aw, Drew, I'm sorry. That sucks. I hope they work it out quickly.
