Wreck 1 week post op

[mckenzie 66]

I had my first wreck today on the way to work. 6 am and I smack a deer and air bag hit me straight in the stomach. Everything is okay but was terrified I screwed my stomach up.

Scary. Thank heavens you're all right. Did you call the dr's office?

[mckenzie 66]

Yes they said just to make sure I go in if I start having pain

Oh my goodness. How incredibly scary! You take care of yourself, lady.

Is the deer okay? (Just trying to lighten the mood. )

Didn't you post something the other day about your extreme fatigue?

I did but it was due to not sleeping well in my recliner. I started back in bed and was feeling much better. No pain meds either. Deer came out of nowhere and I didn’t see it until I hit it. Car is totaled and now I’m in ER for watery bloody stools... been a great day. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Watery, bloody stools? I hope that's not because you have a bleeder internally. What tests are they planning to run? Is this your second visit to the ER, or did you initially go after your accident?

This is just horrible. Do you have a good support system to help you get your life back on track?

Do you live at home with your parents? (I ask only because your user photo is of a very young woman.)

As if your recovery isn't a challenge enough, you get into a car accident and get gut-punched by an airbag.

Who needs this kind of drama, particularly now?

First visit and I live with my fiancé

I have a great support system and they said no bleed internally so they don’t know why I had blood. Follow up with surgeon in next few days so hope that goes good

Glad on all counts, McKenzie. I'm glad you have a strong support system.

I bet you've scared the becheezits out of everyone in the last few days.

As a mother of four, it's always a big worry when something scary like this happens to a child.

As for your fiancé, he better get used to the idea of for better or for worse,

for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, after car-deer accident and post bypass surgery...

Life is full of surprises, some more surprising than others.

Oh he has been absolutely amazing to me through it all. He’s my biggest supporter other than my mom.

Then you've got it made, Girl. I hope you'll be sharing regularly as you progress.

Are you sure you're feeling okay post deer? I'm still a bit worried about you. The mother in me can't help myself.

Keep monitoring your stools for blood. Bright red vs. darkish black-purple.

I’m so glad you’re okay honey. More glad you have great support.
