Pamela

that's brilliant news on so many levels!! Skipping the stent stage seems like a hood plan!! C & I starting Wed if Bili behaves!

and to add to the chorus, you look amazing. How can you look so fab after all you've been through?!? I don't look that good on my best days!

Dontell us if you managed any of those amazing looking cakes? Or did Kerr make the most of them!!

im sending strict instructions for the drains to work extra hard over night!! & I hope 🤞🏼 Bili levels have dropped another chunk!!

What a wonderful update.

Pamela, you are an inspiration and the collective is with you. I thought I'd share a poem you may like. It's '"Hope" is the thing with feathers' by Emily Dickinson.

“Hope” is the thing with feathers -
That perches in the soul -
And sings the tune without the words -
And never stops - at all -

And sweetest - in the Gale - is heard -
And sore must be the storm -
That could abash the little Bird
That kept so many warm -

I’ve heard it in the chillest land -
And on the strangest Sea -
Yet - never - in Extremity,
It asked a crumb - of me.

Sending you a gentle hug to say " good night" Hope you have a comfortable sleep

deepspace9 · 08/07/2023 23:50

So happy to see this update! 😊

Plonkydonkey · 09/07/2023 00:07

You are doing amazingly well! I am so proud of you all for pushing back your tenacity is bloody brilliant!

I love ascitic taps, I have seen 20ltr drained from one lady with cancer over a few days. It was fascinating to see her improve! 20lts. I am a Nurse and the most I have seen from men with alcoholic cirrhosis was 14ltrs. I'm always in awe of the change in body shape.

Less in awe of trying to get the albumin to run through the giving sets though😂.

Keep pushing. Happy belated birthday wishes to you and hugs to Kerr

torthecatlady · 09/07/2023 00:18

Pamela, your last picture made me smile so much and you look beautiful. Glad to hear the doctors and nurses are taking such good care of you. Thank you to Kerr for keeping us updated. X

AutisticLegoLover · 09/07/2023 00:50

I see you're rocking the hospital gown there with your cakes and big smile 😃 Nothing says sexy birthday girl like a hospital gown! O Every post you write amazes me more and more. You are such an inspiration.
