Apparently this person thought I was the one having the takedown. I
believe this message is for Jolene.

2 days to Takedown:

don't know about takedown - are you going back to "normal". That is
what I am hoping for one day - I have a colostomy - that they tell
me "they think can be reversed" - but they tried in May of this year
and couldn't do it because I was "under too long and had too many
hernias" - so they say I have to wait anouther year to 2 years. I
will pray for you and hope that all goes well - Just walk in faith
that it will all be okay. God bless.
