Holly is one of our true pioneers.

I am thinking of her and sending her love and prayers often through the day. Surgery does include some risk of unintended complications and sometimes the person themselves brings things to the surgery suite that causes problems. every body is different.

I had a complication that was a rectus sheath hematoma. I had had a hysterectomy that caused some old scarring that may have played into that issue we believe. The result was weeks of bedrest and abdominal pain, totally not expected for most people but obviously a complication that I unexpectedly had. That was really all about me and not about the procedure.

I wish Holly well and hope her complication resolves! she is in my thoughts all the time...

Hi All!
I am sorry that I have not posted anything today...I am waiting to speak with Holly's sister again..she has been travelling to Phoenix this afternoon and we decided to make connections after she had visited Holly. I know this has been a long day for everyone. Please be patient.

Edited: Holly's family wants to assure the TIMS members that what has happened is not related to the surgery which Holly had at Stanford last week.
