Thanks, Sheryl. I didn't know that hernia's could get that big!!! She'd had it for years but was afraid of surgery but when it got strangulated she was in ALOT of pain. She just got out of the hospital again on Monday because her lungs started filling up with fluid. She's been with her daughter in Nebraska and I don't know when she's coming home or if she'll even be able to care for herself when she does come home. It's been really hard on my husband's family trying to make decisons from a different state.
