Okay now for the bad news! Starting on Saturday he started getting really bad belly pains like he was getting before his first belly surgery. It was looking like he was in worst pain then he was before. He was killing him.. they did an x-ray and it showed that he was backed up like no other. They said he was backed up 23 feet and that his eyes were blue but should of been brown. Haha so they started to just watch him to see if he would start pooing again. After 5 days they finally said that he was in so much pain they were going to finally start him on doing something. He was in so much pain he was puking so much, they said that he was close to puking up poo. Horrible right. My dad kept telling him that something was wrong and he didn't feel like himself. It was breaking my heart cause i knew that he was in so much pain and the doctor weren't doing anything. So finally they got him an other x-ray.. And it was AN OTHER obstruction of the intestines. It was looking like we were going to need an other surgery. They told us that they would try everything else other then surgery. So they put the NG tube down him again to get all the fluids out if his belly and starting giving him enema to make him poop a lot. They had to give him soap suds also, a long with a shot that flushed out all the toxin from his body. It seemed to be working but it was sad to see my dad go through that again. After 3 enema's, 2 soap subs, and 4 shots. He is finally starting to feel better. They will keep giving him shots in the belly till they know he is completely cleaned out, so every other day he will be getting them. They were able to take out the NG tube on Friday. Even though he had a little set back, he is still doing great.
Okay now more good news.. When my dad was really sick and was getting better. We thought that we should share about his story. We hear about all this true story, that they do movies on and how teams helps the person with anything. So we send off a story about my dad and what he went through. We didn't think we would get anything back. But we were wrong.. We got something back from the Denver Broncos. My dad favorite team.... And this is what we got back from them..
Hello ladies,
Thank you so much for the inspiring letter that you wrote to the Denver Broncos about your Terry. It sounds like he is doing well now so congratulations on his recovery. Unfortunately right now none of our players are here since it is their off season. Is there anything else we could do to help your father? We send out “Fan Packs” to people which just consists of small Broncos items and I could throw in a t-shirt if you would like that. If you could provide me a little more with what you are looking for that would be great because your father/husband truly does sound amazing and we would love to do what we can to help. Thanks.
My sister wrote back and explained my dad little set back and kinda told her what my dad would love from them. And now we are just waiting to hear back from them. It would be amazing to get something from them, even just a little card. My dad would be on 7th heaven if he got anything from them. And just knowing he has touched someone else life with his story is great! Yup my dad is pretty amazing if i say so myself!
11 days till my dad gets to come home!!!!!
11 days!!!
