Not for the Faint of Heart


Greetings all! This is where - once I get to Haiti I'll post all the 'gory details' :D I didn't want to put it on the main page for those who may end up losing their lunches. Please be warned this will not be for the faint of heart! Until I get to Haiti though I figure I can 'test' it out by putting pictures from Nate's surgery up here :D

Nate's Surgery Pics

Section of small intestine 'peppered' with tumors
Close up of one of the tumors

All 5 feet of the Jejunum that was removed
Another close up of the tumors


The original 3x4 cm tumor which was fount on the CAT scan
7-8 inch incision

a few days post-op - given instructions to change gauze bid
Not a great pic - but one can see it's not healing as well as expected...lots of blood clots





April 21 - 19 days post-op
