hello world,
this is robins husband Matt, I have some spare time right now so I was able to get in her blog.
Thank you all for your support in the comment section, Robin and I really appreciate all the thoughts and prayers we have received over the past few hours. Please keep them coming.
SO you all know Robins surgery went well, (kind of). First the good news:
The Cyst was not on robins ovary. All of her reproductive parts are intact and still inside her.
The sort of bad news is that it wasn't really a cyst at all. Our sweet little 5 foot 3; 110 pound (dripping wet) robin is sort of a super woman when it comes to pain. The details are still kind of falling into place but about three months ago Robins appendix ruptured. Yes it ruptured, when it did that her body tried to heal itself and produced what the doctors are calling a wall around the crap that leaks out when your appendix breaks. This just started to swell up like a balloon and started attaching itself to basically everything in her abdomen. The doctors had to cut around the "Mass" as the doctors are now calling it, which meant they had to remove a part of her bowel. and sew it back together. I know that this is complicated and we are still trying to figure out how she was able to withstand the pain of her appendix breaking but that's for another day. We will be in the hospital for a few more days,but we should have a complete recovery. We are just grateful for the fact that all of her ovaries are intact and functional. Keep us in your prayers and thoughts until we get home and out of all this.
P.S. The chances of an appendix walling itself off only happens in 1 out of 252,000 patients. R u Kidding me!!!!
Thanks again for everything. And just so you all know I used my computer hacking skills to get into her website hopefully she wont be mad

That is crazy!
I'm glad she is doing okay.
Thanks for the update...I'm sure she won't be mad. :)
Thanks so much for the update! I've been thinking about this all day! This is absolutely insane though! Appendix ruptured 3 months ago? Woah. Robin IS a super woman!! I hope she has super woman healing powers too so she can be back to 100% in no time!
Wow, that is incredible! I'm so glad to hear the surgery went well. My prayer's are with you : )
WOW! I just got MAJOR goose bumps!! Someone was definately looking out for you dear! I hope you're doing ok, and YAY for your ovaries being ok:):):)
Oh wow! I'm so glad to hear both ovaries are intact. I'm so glad to hear Robin's okay (good hacking job, Matt).
OMG Robin, you are Super-Woman, a tough cookie, a rock star and completely AMAZING! I'm so glad the mass was removed and your ovaries were preserved. That's great news. I will pray for your continued recovery... and, hi Matt!
To think that she could handle that is amazing ... i love you!!! See you soon!!!
thanks for the update... wow! what a crazy thing, and that's amazing that she tolerated the pain that that must have caused. my prayers are still with you. speedy recovery and hugs!!
I am so glad you are OK Robin...what a tough girl and Praise God for the health of your ovaries (that sounds weird to say...but it is the truth!!) Hope you continue to have a great recovery!!
Robin - no doubt that God has shed his grace on you! We're so glad to hear that you're safe and it's just amazing what you've endured and overcome (not just a ruptured appendix). You are such a fighter. Get well soon!
Praying for you Robin! Good job Matt, thanks for the update!!!!
Wow, I don't read this blog for a week or so and look what happens! Best of Luck on a very speedy recovery. You get the Iron Gut award for taking all the pain over the last couple months!! My thoughts and prayers are with you both.
I've been away from BlogLand for a bit - so I'm just now catching up on all that's going on and can I please just say "HOLY HELL!" My gosh, someone upstairs is definitely looking after our girl... wow. Amazing. I'm happy to hear that the ovaries are intact - and that Robin is one of those miracles that lives (for ages!!) after a ruptured appendix... again - AMAZING.
Y'all are SOOO in my thoughts and prayers - even though the hardest part seems to be over...
