Constipation then Diarrhoea...

Jo called me at 2pm today while I was lunching with a client and I rushed back immediately.

She complained of pain in the stomach, more like that of severe constipation...it was so excruciating that we were considering going back to the hospital. We decided to wait awhile and she took some morphine to calm down and ease the pain.

Earlier on she had taken a couple of laxatives to aid her bowel movement...and it worked...too well. At this point, she's gone to the loo nearly 8 times and now she's got diarrhoea! Arrgh.

Poor girl, she's exhausted and drained...didn't eat anything till this evening where she had a tiny bit of porridge. Appreciate your prayers here that all will be well tomorrow.

Looks like we get these "surprises" more often these days.

He will cover you with his pinions,
And under His wings you may seek refuge;
His faithfulness is a shield and bulwark.
For He will give His angels
charge concerning you,
To guard you in all your ways,
They will bear you
up in their hands,
Lest you strike your foot against a stone
Psalm 91:4,11-12

I shall pray for you and your wife, buddy.

Trust the Lord will shelter Jo tonight while she sleeps.
