On a More Musical Note . . . .

Post by tex »

I farted, yesterday! :shock: :shock: :shock:

Now you might not think that's much of an accomplishment, and certainly nothing to brag about, but remember--I had a colostomy a little over 6 weeks ago, so it's impossible for me to fart, (some gas bleeds into the ostomy bag, but it does that quietly, when it happens).

This most definitely was not gas going into the ostomy bag, it was flatus exiting the traditional port. So how did I do it? Beats me, but apparently I have a talent that I was unaware of, because it wasn't just a feeble little "poot", that left me wondering, "Was that a fart?"

Nope, it was a gen-u-wine, bonafide, unmistakable, real, live fart. Not only that, but it was promptly followed by a secondary aftershock, which was almost as pronounced as the first volley, and certainly removed any doubt that might have existed after the first event.

I'm baffled, once again, but I was there, so I know it happened. I may have to write a book, yet--just one more bizarre event in my revcovery. LOL.

Love,
Wayne

Hello Wayne

Don't know what happened but I lost my reply post to you so here we go again.

Maybe it ( the fart I mean) has been lurking in there since your op. :shock: or perhaps it is in celebration of New Year. Who knows.

By the way Aussie slang for a fart is 'horse & cart' & it is a bit of a worry if they 'pen & ink' Robert reminded me to tell you this.


Love

Liz

Hi Liz,

It may have been my fault that you lost that post, and I apologize, if it was. I checked to see if anyone was using the board, before I disabled it, to install the upgrade, and the control panel showed no one logged in, or viewing the board as a guest, but there is a delay in the reported results, sometimes, and you may have logged in after I loaded the control panel, but before I disabled the board, in which case I would not have been aware that you were using it.

What a smilie! LOL. I appreciate the language lesson, also. Seems like I've seen the phrase "horse & cart", before, but I'm not sure. I'm guessing that "pen & ink" is probably not good.

Does Robert read the board? He's welcome to join, if he wants. Members don't necessarily have to have MC. Several of our members joined because someone in their family has it.

Love,
Wayne

P S If it was in celebration of the New Year, I hope that's a good sign.

P P S Gosh, Mars, I didn't mean to make anyone cry. LOL.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Great story, Wayne!

I wonder where in the world that came from???? Wouldn't it have to have been air that was there at the time of surgery? I can't imagine where else it would have come from. Unless somehow there is a very small opening between the distal rectum and the functioning part of the gut? You certainly have had an interesting course. Of course, we always say, there is no such thing as a textbook case. LOL!

So it continues to be true that, for us MCers, "happiness is a dry fart"! Or, as the Aussie version goes........"happiness is a horse and cart without pen and ink"!!!!

Love,

Polly

Hi Polly,

It had to have been left over from the surgery. It sort of surprised me, though, to have something like that happen 45 days later.

That will probably be my last opportunity to enjoy flatulent happiness, for at least a few months. LOL.

Love,
Wayne

Well, if I could get certain members of my family to STOP farting, I certainly would (my delicate little kitten Molly included).

Is it possible that it was because of dying/living digestive bacteria still hanging out in that part of the colon?
