Hi, this is Kat's GMR, she wanted me to log in and let you know that she's been in the hospital; her appendix was about to burst wide open and luckily she went to the emergency room when she fell ill. They said it was ready to blow and no wonder she was so sick.
Had surgery yesterday, laproscopic so she'll get back going sooner. She may come home today, but can't go anywhere for a bit & has to promise to rest....she wanted to still do her signing and even at first asked if they could not do the surgery until after her signing, the doc just laughed at her -- he said, 'this thing has to come out, it's about to rupture..." she asked, "well what about after the surgery" he shook his head, "no - you hve to rest at least several days after surgery. to be able to come home today, she has to promise to rest - she will, as she's pretty sore and very tired.
She said to tell you all she misses you,

Tell her we miss her too! I hope she feels better soon. Also, tell her to take care of herself.

oh Kat!! Poor you!!! I'm SO glad you went to the hospital. I know of people who have waited a bit too long and it turned out much more severe with infections etc. Get well soon and you HAVE to rest! Promise! xoxoxoxoxoxo
Aw, GMR, thanks for coming to tell us! It's good to make your acquaintance, I just pity the circumstance.
Please tell Kat we're thinking of her. We'll be here when she gets back, no matter how long the rest.
*hugs*
Thanks for letting us know and thank goodness she didn't wait any longer. Speedy recovery Kathryn, our thoughts are with you :)
Kathryn, look on the bright side: I don't know what an appendix weighs, especially when it's full of stuff ready to burst, but that weight won't show up on your next weigh-in. Seriously, rest up, get well, and you'll have plenty of opportunities to greet fans and sign more books soon.
Kat...I am so glad that you got to the doctor in time. Take it easy and take time to recover. You're in my thoughts!
XOXO
Ohhh! Kathryn, that's scary! Get well soon! TG for Laproscopy! Feel better! See you when you get back!
*hugs*
I am thankful that you seen the doctor in time. I have already prayed for a quick recovery for you and that you would feel much peace over these next days of healing. Bless your beautiful heart and hope you are feeling good soon! Love and hugs, Lori
What a bummer! Glad they could remove it with laparoscopy. Take it easy, Kat. Positive vibes are being sent your way.
Kat - thank goodness you went to hospital in time. Take care of yourself and hope you are back doing your signings soon!
Kat - Take care, do as the doctors say, life will wait for you! Hope you are up and at 'em again soon.
Sending healing prayers. xx
Rog - Tell Boop her BR tribe is sending up good juju and prayers for a swift recovery. Sooo glad she got the bugger out before it threw a fit and burst!
Call/email if ya need anything. (I hope it goes well with you being the care giver to that cranky arse.) LOL
Oh, I just this minute finished Tender Graces and I came in here to RAVE. RAVE. RAVE.
I'll wait, but you can pass on the news (if you read the comments) that she has a crazy wild fan who is determined to see TG on the NY Times Best Seller list at the very top.
What a powerful, de... oops. I started that rave.
Thoughts of comfort to you both.
See, this is what happens when you wear tight panties all the time.
Commando, that's the way to go.
Unless you're guy then pull up the zipper slooooooowly.
I hope you get better soon.
Get some rest and the world will be waiting for you when you're ready.
Kat, glad you are still here and breathing! (because you need to write some more books) - you're a trooper -take it easy for a while would you, please! The more you rest in the beginning, the faster your body will heal!
Roger, you truly are a Good Man. Thank you for coming in to let us know about Kat's operation. Give her a very gentle hug for me, please, and tell her repeatedly that trying to do too much too soon will slow her healing, so she should obey the doctor and take it easy. You may also tell her that if she doesn't be good, I will send her numerous letters just crammed with, comma splices.
S.
Thank goodness it was caught in time! Guess it'll put any belly dancing antics on hold for a while ...Get well soon, Blogpal. :)
stopping over from Angie's to wish you well!!
AN appendectomy?? You sur elike to go big or go home, don't you???
saying a prayer for a speedy recovery.
All my good well wishes are being sent your way!
Oh no! What a terrible thing to happen! So sorry you missed your signing! Prayers headed your way!
Get well!
Dear Kat, Thinking about you and sending you sweet, healing, happy thoughts. I hope you feel the virtual love from up here in Philly.
Hugs, Debbie ;-)
Oh my gosh! Thank you for sharing and I'm praying right now for you Kathryn, for a swift recovery. :-( I'm so glad that you're okay though.
Please let her know she is in my prayers and you are too. Kat, rest and get well.
Thanks for the update Roger. Please remind Kat that today is International Talk Like A Pirate Day and she would only be allowed to write Virgina Kate's dialogue in pirate if she were home. And that would never do.
So she can just relax in the hospital and take care of her self.
Arrrrrrr!
Kathryn, Coming over from Angie's to wish you a very speedy recovery. Get well, SOON!
Be well, Kat. And let GMR take care of you. Nothing is more important than your health. Much love.
Appendectomy Schmappendectomy!
All this lazing about just so the hubby dotes on you for a while. Tsk. Tsk.
Did you know the appendix was thought to have been useful early on to help with the digestion of complex thingies like shoots and leaves? (I thought you’d appreciate that reference.) It’s thought to be full of bacteria that protect other good bacteria that the colon manufactures to help babies break down their poop. Now it’s no longer needed, except as transplanted tissue in the urinary tract, to rebuild a sphincter muscle and to reconstruct a functional bladder.
While I’m being useful, let me assist you with the other major question you’re having at the moment.
Aside from being considered a clear liquid and containing sugar, are you aware that eating Jello is a good way to strengthen bones? Neither did I. Our wiggly friend is very high in collagen. Vegetarians are aware of this because they don’t consume animal protein and dairy products. On top of all of that, collagen is used to minimize wrinkles. So feel free to smear it on your face.
I hope I made you smile. Feel better and all that.
Take good care of yourself and get well soon Kat!
