It's been a while since I've written anything so I need to get you up to date.  I had my surgery and they removed my right adrenal gland and tumor on October 31.  It was a successful surgery.  I was in the hospital for 5 days and then got to come home.  I started having complications immediately.  First I was treated for dehydration and then put in the hospital for low steriod levels.  I have been in the hospital all but 14 days since the surgery.  I have had Addison's, gastroperisis, and pancreatitis.  I have been a point away from critical condition with too low of potassium level.   I have lost the months I was in the hospital.  I remember bits and pieces of the time here and there, but for the most part I can't remember the time.  I know my family has been beside me through it all.  I have fought the fight and keep fighting.  I will not give up.  I am home again from a six day hospital stay. Hoping to be able to stay home for longer this time.  Will write more later. I get tired easily and need a nap now.
