My Rant.

Live update from my hospital room. I am so tired of doctors, surgeons, nurses, hospitals, ERs, procedures, test, and shit/poop/crap...

Yes I am greatful you where there and saved my life. But I last a part of me that I will never get back, and no im not talking about my colon or UC.

My journey for the last 3 years:

6/2023 colonoscopy, diagnosed with UC. 1 week hospital stay.

7/2023 partial colectomy surgery (no drugs helped, UC was really pissed off). 28 day hospital stay.

12/2023 total colectomy surgery. Barbie/Kenn butt. 1 week hospital stay.

8/2024 parastomal hernia repair surgery. 3 day hospital stay.

10/2025 diagnosed with a reoccurring parastomal hernia.

5/2026 reoccurring parastomal hernia surgery. Day surgery

5/2026 (24 hours later) reoccurring parastomal hernia surgery complication - The mesh was too tight and caused a blockage so had to have emergency surgery. 1 week hospital stay.

5/2026 (a week later) back to the hospital for not getting better. Now I have 2 bacterial infections. Working on day 4, still in the hospital.

All I am left with is a bag of shitty feelings that will never flush and a dark sense of humor.
