Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti
We are testing the bowels tonight with good ole hospital spaghetti. I hope it stays down because it won't be pretty coming back up! This is the first real test of solid foods. Forget the toast, bananas, applesauce etc, here at Mayo they jump right to spaghetti. Nine out of 10 doctors here recommend spaghetti after bowel surgery.
Michael is walking 4 walks a day. Burping--yes Farting--no (for those keeping track like Renee'). Today may be the turn in the road that we were looking for. Still alot of unexplained pain so the gallbladder is still under close scrutiny.
It has been a long week-plus some so I am going to keep it short tonight. We are so blessed to have such a strong support system in place and I am sure that is why we were chosen to go thru this.

Dawn & Michael,
I was just checking in after the St Jude's poker tourney here at the Auctioneers summer conference. Everyone wishes Michael were here and are all asking about him. I have a picture from today at the golf outing that he'll want to see...I can send it to his email account if you are able to get it there...might be fun to post it on here if you are able. Just let me know where to email it to and I'll get it right out. As Michael will know, I'll be up in a few hours getting ready for the board meeting. Thinking about him every day and wishing for a speedy recovery.

Good Morning .... hopefully the spaghetti made it all the way down and didn't make any U-turns. Hopefully by the time you guys get back here the weather will be what summer weather should be, the furnace is running in the middle of June. Take care and prayers are with you Michael, stay strong and don't look back (your gown is probely open anyway) each day your progress will get better. Love Sue
Good Morning from Michigan. Not enough snow last night to plow but will check back today. :) Sounds like Michael is dong better every day. 4 laps a day = a get out of jail card. Hopefully soon ! Remember- the worm goes in- the worm comes out , the worm goes in and squiggles about :) Hope the spaghetti worked.
Love to All,
Tanya and the Dandeneau's

Mike you are not the man to hire. The story goes " farting horse never tires a farting man is the man to hire.
Everything is diffivult in the beginning as the Chinesse proverb goes.
Keep up the good work.

Michael, I have been visualizing all day, hoping the spaghetti will do its job. I know how frustrating this must be and how uncomfortable, as well. I am thinking of you and have my commandos doing manuevers as I write this blog. I pray they are successful. Take care. I will be waiting to hear the good word.

Hi Dawn, Michael, and kids!
Ethan is interested in challenging WInter in a 5k, so he needs your family back out here! We are certainly missing you at the hospital. Everyone at work is thinking about you and your family and encouraged to hear about Michael's progress.
Spaghetti???? I will have to add "S" to the "BRATS" diet!! Thanks!
Much love, Brittney, Ryan, EThan, Laurel, and Ella

No tooting yet? Well, I'm sure that day will come all too soon! I hope the spaghetti ended up staying inside for a while. I'm glad you're walking more!!!
