he's he's going to describe a a a.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Condition that he had.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
I've never heard of it, but if somebody has, I'd
love to know, Wes Rights. I'm not going to read
the whole thing like he wrote a lot, like some
would say too much.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
Well, and when he called and talked to us, he's
obviously very reflective and very it's I mean it's it's uh,
he would probably tell you it feels like you cheated death.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
Oh so I remember didn't they tell his family like
get your affairs in.
Speaker 4 (00:47):
Which, so when you're saying that he was.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
Worthy, yeah, no, no, I mean he is. I mean
it's a very lengthy give him a break anyway, Wes Rights,
Here's what happened. Now, I am going to get one, two, three,
four words into the next sentence and this this, this,
I want to know what was something got botched, But
(01:10):
he doesn't say what. He says what it was, but
not how it was. Here, let me just read from
Wes Johnson. Here's what happened after a botched colonoscopy sent
me into livershock a year ago. I've been fighting against
an and this is the word. I don't know what
(01:33):
it is. What is this in susception into sucception? I
n tuss t uss eception in tusuception and malabsorption. But
I don't know what in a am I saying the word?
Speaker 5 (01:54):
Right?
Speaker 6 (01:54):
You've now said it differently every single time.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
Because I don't know how to say it.
Speaker 6 (01:58):
Would you like me to go to the internet for
the preunciation?
Speaker 2 (02:01):
Please?
Speaker 1 (02:03):
So the the two things that he had, well, he
had an interception whatever that is you've taken out multiple syllables,
and a malabsorption which was triggered by a botched colonoscopy.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
What happened during the colonoscopy?
Speaker 7 (02:18):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (02:19):
He doesn't explain.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
No, And that's what I mean, Like, what how did
how did it get botched?
Speaker 2 (02:25):
Ready? Did the doctor mean to use a hose and
use his finger?
Speaker 6 (02:28):
Elien? What ridiculous. They can't warn you that you can get.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
Cut in a So you think it cut up his
his tushy?
Speaker 2 (02:37):
Track?
Speaker 6 (02:37):
Well, I'm sure there are other possible side effects like
to be to be nicked, which I don't know if
that was the cost, but I do remember them telling
me it's possible that you can experience some bleeding afterwards.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
But is that from the polyps? Polyps? Oh so perfect?
Speaker 4 (02:56):
No, No, I'm just saying like you like they could
like nick the inside of the.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
Tubes, going like it catches a little bit and the
next thing you know, a little blood boom goes to
the dynamite.
Speaker 4 (03:07):
Don't be shocked.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
But that's not botched. If they tell you that that's
not botched. Box sounds like something. Here's the first.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
It'd be so much easier if Wes just called to
tell me what the hell happened? Yeah, into suception one
more time into suception. It sounds like I'm saying it
into suception, into suception, right into suception, into suception, into suception.
Speaker 6 (03:30):
No, yes, not that time into suception.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
There you go into suception.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Anyway, something happened in Uh, something happened between West's cheeks
and he ended up with into suception and malabsorption from
a year ago.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Yes, so is that meaning he was living his life normally?
And no, he got weak because the foods he was
eating were not giving him nutrients.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
Well, how about you let me, let me let me
keep going here, your birthday, Diane, after it's mine, Thank you,
Happy birthday to me after a botched colonoscopy sent me
in deliver shot a year ago. I've been fighting against
into sucception and malabsorption. Even while eating I was starving.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
I have this.
Speaker 6 (04:19):
Oh no, has a symptom ever spoken so loudly to you,
like seriously.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
Even while you're the one who has.
Speaker 6 (04:30):
Coined the phrase, but also cemented the idea that you
don't need to be hungry?
Speaker 2 (04:37):
You kidding me?
Speaker 1 (04:40):
Even while eating I was starving, I grew weaker and
more exhausted, but I never gave up. I never surrendered, surrendered,
kept bringing the fury to the caps, doing TV commercials
and filming the Star Trek film Faarrage Forward and even
its sequel. I tried to never let the growing exhaustion
be seen or affect my performances. Hey, real quick, Christ,
(05:04):
will you see if we could find somebody who has
an into sucception in malabsorption?
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Anybody who's ever had that? Please?
Speaker 1 (05:13):
Eight sixty six to Elliott eight six six two three
five five four six eight anybody who's ever dealt with
into sucception in malabsorption?
Speaker 2 (05:23):
I don't know if they go hand in hand.
Speaker 6 (05:27):
Yes, malabsorption the result of the into suception.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Don't know eight sus A sixty six. Stop it does
sound like something.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
It sounds like you're saying it wrong, or like you're
a stumbling yeah into susception from.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
Judjue J. Johnson, or like.
Speaker 6 (05:47):
Your mom is trying to tell you they've discovered something
with her and diagnosed her with something that they've never
seen before.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
Oh, Elliott, they've got an into suception. No, it does.
It sounds like you're mocking with a with a stutter.
Well you would know what that sounds like anyway.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
Eight sixty six to Elliott eight six six two three
five five four six eight someone who has dealt with
into susception and malabsorption or a botch kolonoscopy. After after
a year, my body gave out after an exhausting flight
to Atlanta. I slept, but my vital organ started shutting down.
(06:33):
My blood pressure crashed, kidney started going, anemia was destroying
my red blood cells. I was found unconscious with very
little pulse.
Speaker 6 (06:44):
That's sort of where he picked up, and we're talking
about exactly exactly.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
He said it was repercussions from a procedure I've done
many times without incident. It had caught up with me.
So he's had a decent amount of colonoscopy. I was
given life saving efforts in the er and then put
in a medically induced coma for three days. I was
(07:09):
intubated for five days, dialysis for three days. A blood transfusion.
What do we just learn about blood transfusions?
Speaker 2 (07:18):
I was off air. Yeah, but I don't think she
would mind, Like, why do you have to say who
it is? I don't.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
But we met somebody who had a blood transfusion and
because of the blood transfusion, became allergic to pepper. And
I was like, I've never heard of anybody being allergic
to pepper, and she or he said I wasn't either
until I had a blood transfusion. That would suck. I
did look that.
Speaker 6 (07:42):
Up after she mentioned it, and transhi or he born
allergies are not They got to be rare, heard of,
but they are rare.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
They gotta be rare.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
My luck, I'd have a transfusion and then be allergic
to cigarettes.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
Oh no, because that's why you need it to transfuse it.
The doctors told my wife.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
So the rest of it we pretty much know, right,
And he does lots of lots of happy tears were
shed and all of that. I got back into surgery
on Tuesday. My small bowel was resectioned and the into
sucception was fixed. So I am now absorbing nutrients for
food and vitamins. So I guess whatever this into suception is.
(08:29):
It prevents your body from absorbing nutrients from your food,
which is the malabsorption. But what happens to your body
on an into sucception? And what freakish photo are you
looking at?
Speaker 6 (08:47):
No offense, wes, but this is what it looks like
when you have a small intestine with into suception.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
But why what? What's why is one inside the other?
Speaker 6 (08:58):
You see it sort of as fixing over and then into.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Oh so that's not two parts of the that's not
two parts of the intestine that's folded on itself and
goes into the intestine.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
And how does that even happen?
Speaker 6 (09:17):
Well, this is from the Mayo Clinic and they say
this is very rare. Oh really, yes, So I don't
know how many people you may be able to find.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
What would even cause that?
Speaker 6 (09:27):
The Botch's kolonoscopy, which he doesn't get into more detail about.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
So you think the Botch colonoscopy pulls your intestine into
the other part of the intestine.
Speaker 6 (09:44):
Well, he said, with that combined with that liver shock,
and listen, I don't want to scare anybody away from kolonoscopies.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
No, my god, it's the Wes has had one hundred
of them. It sounds like, yes, they are generally quite safe.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Who did I just talk to that was being a
pussy about getting a colonoscopy.
Speaker 6 (10:05):
And I yelled at him so afraid of an age
where they should be getting one.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
Yes, now you also had.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
I will never, I will never, I will never get
a prostate exam. I no, no, no, but you had
to be another prostate exam for a colonoscopy. Just but
not because I was lazy. That because I was lazy,
not because I was scared. Oh okay, but yeah, I don't.
I don't care about that.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
You go to sleep. They they too. You're done.
Speaker 6 (10:36):
This is an exception. Is most common in children under three.
Speaker 4 (10:41):
Yeah, there's a lot of graphics of babies having.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
Wait because like their intestines aren't strong.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
Does Wes have the intestines of a three year old?
Speaker 7 (10:50):
No?
Speaker 1 (10:50):
He had the botched calenoscopy with the liver shock. You
would think a big manly voice like that. But the
intestione of.
Speaker 6 (10:56):
A baby, sometimes in adults there are the result of
a tumor. Oh minor procedure with kids also can push
the intestine back into.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Position mine three, Hi, y Ellie at the morning, birthday salad.
Speaker 8 (11:18):
Hi, happy birthday.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
Oh my god, thank you, thank you. Happy birthday to
you too. What can I do for you?
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Well?
Speaker 8 (11:24):
Thank you. So my son actually had into deception when
he was ten months.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
Old, and from what Diane and Tyler were saying, it
sounds like it happens a little more frequently with kids.
Speaker 4 (11:39):
It does, but.
Speaker 8 (11:41):
It's never the first go to sought for pediatricians.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
Right, I get that if it's so rare.
Speaker 8 (11:49):
Yeah. So unfortunately it gets really bad before they go, oh, this.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
Is what it is.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
You know what it looks like in that picture, and
it looks like me, maybe I'm onto it. But if
you it's like the intestine folding in on itself. You
know what it's like if you had like a long telescope,
that's how it's described, and you popped it really, oh
my god, we got men genius and you pushed it together.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
It folds in on itself.
Speaker 8 (12:16):
Yeah, so my son's Basically what happened is nine inches
of his intestine went over his colon and closed it off,
and then another section collapsed on itself. So when we
found out about it, he basically turned yellow. He wasn't
(12:37):
able to keep anything down. It almost it's almost like
a blockage. So when he got to the hospital, they
tried to basically shoot air up his butt right to
try and rectify it. They couldn't do it that way,
so they ended up having to go and and do surgery.
(12:57):
They pulled the section off off of his colon, but
then had to remove nine inches of his intestine.
Speaker 6 (13:04):
God, wow, did he have and I'm seeing a lot
of photos of it? Did he have the jelly stool?
The current jelly stool?
Speaker 2 (13:13):
They call it? Look a look at which.
Speaker 8 (13:17):
Was hard because he was he was still a baby. Yeah,
I stuck anyways, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
Oh my god, wait a minute to say this.
Speaker 6 (13:27):
They say, this is the number one uh symptom in children.
This and it looks like it looks like food. It
really does look like What was that one you wanted
us to get the Advent calendar?
Speaker 2 (13:41):
What was that company of.
Speaker 4 (13:42):
The jams and jellies one?
Speaker 7 (13:43):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (13:43):
Yeah, Oh that's right.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
Yeah, I can't remember the name, but yeah, the famous
jam company.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
It doesn't looks like you're crap and smuckers.
Speaker 6 (13:51):
And it's the mucus mixing with blood. Oh Jesus, coristage
understandable language.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
But is that a is that? Is that what everybody has?
Speaker 1 (14:00):
So?
Speaker 3 (14:00):
Like?
Speaker 2 (14:01):
Was it Wes? Was Wes letting? No, I'm being serious.
It says for children.
Speaker 4 (14:05):
Yeah, okay, I don't know that Wes would have seen
that in his underwear. Apologies, that was real awkward.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
But they try to fix it by blowing air into
the tushy.
Speaker 8 (14:18):
Yeah. Yeah, they basically put him in a cone because
he was a baby, right, and just kept shooting air
bursts up his rectum to try.
Speaker 7 (14:31):
And clear it.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
I am going to take a preventative approach and every
day when we get off, I'm going to blow into
Dian's tushy.
Speaker 4 (14:41):
Just safety first, all right.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
And now he's fine, Now right, he's fine.
Speaker 8 (14:50):
I mean, he does have some scar tissue and he's
you know, he's never been diagnosed with you know, mount
nutrition or malabsorbed, but he's always had a very tough
time gaining weight or keeping weight on God bless so
he does, like I said, he deals with some scar
(15:11):
tissues which does affect like his bowel habits. He's almost thirty.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
Now, oh oh good, good, good, well that makes me
happy to hear.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
All right, very good, very good. I appreciate it. Thank you, ma'am,
thank you.
Speaker 6 (15:26):
That's crazy Silvio who does have a white coat on
in his ex profile pictures, so he must be a doctor, right,
says very bad condition in young children.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
So that's where it hits most of the time. Hey,
can what's what's the doctor's name.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
Doctor Sylvia? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (15:46):
Why what would have happened with Wes's colonoscopy?
Speaker 6 (15:53):
Anita had one and emergency surgery for it and actually
four other ballo obstructions to oh with it.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
So wait, so she had into suception and four other blockages.
Speaker 6 (16:06):
Yes, how soon? I mean, I understand Wess ignored some
of his.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
Well, he said that he was he was exhausting, Yeah,
and he just put it off.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
But is he?
Speaker 6 (16:21):
I know that they were lucky to get him out
of that hotel room time to get him to the hospital,
but to go so long with the into suception and
the mal absorption is a year an incredible strain on
the body, like the fact that he made it that long.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
Oh, like he should have collapsed after six months, shocking
to doctor Silvio.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
Yeah, I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
I just think every time Wes yells, unleash the fury,
like some duty has to come out God.
Speaker 6 (16:54):
Unleash the jelly that's on Diana.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
Hey, Wes, what's the different street jelly?
Speaker 6 (17:00):
Jam Elliott, I guess it's your birthday.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
Thank you lines Hi Elliott in the morning. Hello, Yeah, Hi,
who's that?
Speaker 7 (17:14):
This is Lisa in Waldorf.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
Yes, what can I do for you?
Speaker 7 (17:18):
I actually had a dog who had the exact same
intestinal issue as a puppy, complete freak thing. He ended
up dying from it, unfortunately. Yes, it was totally freaked thing.
He was sick as a puppy. Nobody could really figure
out what was wrong. And then one day we took
him to the vet like something terribly terribly wrong all
of a sudden, and they ended up doing a stick
(17:39):
a needle in his belly and he was septics. Those
intestine had popped, and I found out that the intestina
had gone in inside of itself and basically popped.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
Interesting.
Speaker 7 (17:51):
Yeah, a total freak accident.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
Yeah, and you.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
Know what, I'm sorry to hear that, but I guess
there you learned dogs can get it. But like Wes
even says in here, like he was supposed to be done,
he did get a blood transfusion watch.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
He'll be allergic to cigarettes.
Speaker 6 (18:10):
Does Wes smoke?
Speaker 7 (18:11):
No?
Speaker 4 (18:12):
I didn't think so.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
I don't know. Guess he's not cool.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
I've never smoked with him. On Tuesday, my small bowel
was resectioned and the into sucception was fixed. I'm now
absorbing nutrients and food and vitamins. I'm stiff, sore and
walking it off carefully. My voice is back, my energy
(18:38):
is returning, my enthusiasm is sky high. I'm grateful for
this second least on life. So does he probably does
feel like he cheated death?
Speaker 4 (18:46):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (18:46):
Well he told us.
Speaker 5 (18:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (18:47):
Does this set him back though, because when we talked
to him, they still didn't know the underlying root cause,
and he was talking to us about his voice coming back.
But now does this surgery and recovery from it push
his return a few weeks?
Speaker 2 (19:01):
Oh? I don't know. That's a good question. I don't know.
Speaker 6 (19:04):
I'm trying to go through here because so many people
had well wishes for him after he revealed this surgery
and botched kleidoscophy. I don't see him estimating like when
he would be back. No, but again, just as he
saw when he was in the hospital, the outpouring of
love and support for him. Oh it's grand, as we've
seen with Locker, It's fantastic.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
Yeah, no, it's awesome. So why hockey is the greatest
sport in the world. Where am I going?
Speaker 2 (19:32):
Line two?
Speaker 7 (19:34):
Hi?
Speaker 2 (19:34):
Elliott the morning?
Speaker 5 (19:37):
Hey Elliott, what's up?
Speaker 2 (19:38):
Brother? This is Steve from Richmond. Hey, Steve, real quick?
What can I do for you?
Speaker 5 (19:42):
So you were talking about blowing air in butt holes
and it kind of reminded me. We just got back
from Belize and there's a place they're doing it around.
They blow in its butt and then they throw it
into the pen and whatever number of poops on is
the winner.
Speaker 1 (19:57):
I'm doing that with Diane. When's our next promotion? When
is our next promotion? I gotta spin Diane. Diane, You'll
put your head on a bat and walk around in
a circle, and then I blow air in your butthole
and then wherever you poop, that's the winner.
Speaker 5 (20:14):
It's called the chicken drops the real thing.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
So, but that's big and belieze, I guess so the.
Speaker 5 (20:22):
Island off the coast to Stampedro Island.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
Interesting, I've never heard of that. All right, very good,
very good. Yep, you got it. Happy birthday. That's a
good ending to our start.
Speaker 6 (20:37):
I was going to tell you that I saw Wes
did say he had a good day yesterday. Oh, excellent
lunch at Ted's Bulletin. Only soup for him.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
He didn't get the pop tarts.
Speaker 6 (20:48):
Maybe he's restricted.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
Yeah, but do you know how many nutrients are in
those pop tarts? And then he went to Captain America.
Oh did he really? Oh good for Wes.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
Good for Wes. Well, I'm glad that he shared. I'm
glad we by the way, we learned something.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
Now.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
The only part that we're missing is when does he
return and is he allergic to anything from the transfusion
like smoke,
Wes Johnson has updated, okay, and he gave a whole
he's he's going to describe a a a.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Condition that he had.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
I've never heard of it, but if somebody has, I'd
love to know, Wes Rights. I'm not going to read
the whole thing like he wrote a lot, like some
would say too much.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
Well, and when he called and talked to us, he's
obviously very reflective and very it's I mean it's it's uh,
he would probably tell you it feels like you cheated death.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
Oh so I remember didn't they tell his family like
get your affairs in.
Speaker 4 (00:47):
Which, so when you're saying that he was.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
Worthy, yeah, no, no, I mean he is. I mean
it's a very lengthy give him a break anyway, Wes Rights,
Here's what happened. Now, I am going to get one, two, three,
four words into the next sentence and this this, this,
I want to know what was something got botched, But
(01:10):
he doesn't say what. He says what it was, but
not how it was. Here, let me just read from
Wes Johnson. Here's what happened after a botched colonoscopy sent
me into livershock a year ago. I've been fighting against
an and this is the word. I don't know what
(01:33):
it is. What is this in susception into sucception? I
n tuss t uss eception in tusuception and malabsorption. But
I don't know what in a am I saying the word?
Speaker 5 (01:54):
Right?
Speaker 6 (01:54):
You've now said it differently every single time.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
Because I don't know how to say it.
Speaker 6 (01:58):
Would you like me to go to the internet for
the preunciation?
Speaker 2 (02:01):
Please?
Speaker 1 (02:03):
So the the two things that he had, well, he
had an interception whatever that is you've taken out multiple syllables,
and a malabsorption which was triggered by a botched colonoscopy.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
What happened during the colonoscopy?
Speaker 7 (02:18):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (02:19):
He doesn't explain.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
No, And that's what I mean, Like, what how did
how did it get botched?
Speaker 2 (02:25):
Ready? Did the doctor mean to use a hose and
use his finger?
Speaker 6 (02:28):
Elien? What ridiculous. They can't warn you that you can get.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
Cut in a So you think it cut up his
his tushy?
Speaker 2 (02:37):
Track?
Speaker 6 (02:37):
Well, I'm sure there are other possible side effects like
to be to be nicked, which I don't know if
that was the cost, but I do remember them telling
me it's possible that you can experience some bleeding afterwards.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
But is that from the polyps? Polyps? Oh so perfect?
Speaker 4 (02:56):
No, No, I'm just saying like you like they could
like nick the inside of the.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
Tubes, going like it catches a little bit and the
next thing you know, a little blood boom goes to
the dynamite.
Speaker 4 (03:07):
Don't be shocked.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
But that's not botched. If they tell you that that's
not botched. Box sounds like something. Here's the first.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
It'd be so much easier if Wes just called to
tell me what the hell happened? Yeah, into suception one
more time into suception. It sounds like I'm saying it
into suception, into suception, right into suception, into suception, into suception.
Speaker 6 (03:30):
No, yes, not that time into suception.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
There you go into suception.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Anyway, something happened in Uh, something happened between West's cheeks
and he ended up with into suception and malabsorption from
a year ago.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Yes, so is that meaning he was living his life normally?
And no, he got weak because the foods he was
eating were not giving him nutrients.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
Well, how about you let me, let me let me
keep going here, your birthday, Diane, after it's mine, Thank you,
Happy birthday to me after a botched colonoscopy sent me
in deliver shot a year ago. I've been fighting against
into sucception and malabsorption. Even while eating I was starving.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
I have this.
Speaker 6 (04:19):
Oh no, has a symptom ever spoken so loudly to you,
like seriously.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
Even while you're the one who has.
Speaker 6 (04:30):
Coined the phrase, but also cemented the idea that you
don't need to be hungry?
Speaker 2 (04:37):
You kidding me?
Speaker 1 (04:40):
Even while eating I was starving, I grew weaker and
more exhausted, but I never gave up. I never surrendered, surrendered,
kept bringing the fury to the caps, doing TV commercials
and filming the Star Trek film Faarrage Forward and even
its sequel. I tried to never let the growing exhaustion
be seen or affect my performances. Hey, real quick, Christ,
(05:04):
will you see if we could find somebody who has
an into sucception in malabsorption?
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Anybody who's ever had that? Please?
Speaker 1 (05:13):
Eight sixty six to Elliott eight six six two three
five five four six eight anybody who's ever dealt with
into sucception in malabsorption?
Speaker 2 (05:23):
I don't know if they go hand in hand.
Speaker 6 (05:27):
Yes, malabsorption the result of the into suception.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Don't know eight sus A sixty six. Stop it does
sound like something.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
It sounds like you're saying it wrong, or like you're
a stumbling yeah into susception from.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
Judjue J. Johnson, or like.
Speaker 6 (05:47):
Your mom is trying to tell you they've discovered something
with her and diagnosed her with something that they've never
seen before.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
Oh, Elliott, they've got an into suception. No, it does.
It sounds like you're mocking with a with a stutter.
Well you would know what that sounds like anyway.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
Eight sixty six to Elliott eight six six two three
five five four six eight someone who has dealt with
into susception and malabsorption or a botch kolonoscopy. After after
a year, my body gave out after an exhausting flight
to Atlanta. I slept, but my vital organ started shutting down.
(06:33):
My blood pressure crashed, kidney started going, anemia was destroying
my red blood cells. I was found unconscious with very
little pulse.
Speaker 6 (06:44):
That's sort of where he picked up, and we're talking
about exactly exactly.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
He said it was repercussions from a procedure I've done
many times without incident. It had caught up with me.
So he's had a decent amount of colonoscopy. I was
given life saving efforts in the er and then put
in a medically induced coma for three days. I was
(07:09):
intubated for five days, dialysis for three days. A blood transfusion.
What do we just learn about blood transfusions?
Speaker 2 (07:18):
I was off air. Yeah, but I don't think she
would mind, Like, why do you have to say who
it is? I don't.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
But we met somebody who had a blood transfusion and
because of the blood transfusion, became allergic to pepper. And
I was like, I've never heard of anybody being allergic
to pepper, and she or he said I wasn't either
until I had a blood transfusion. That would suck. I
did look that.
Speaker 6 (07:42):
Up after she mentioned it, and transhi or he born
allergies are not They got to be rare, heard of,
but they are rare.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
They gotta be rare.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
My luck, I'd have a transfusion and then be allergic
to cigarettes.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
Oh no, because that's why you need it to transfuse it.
The doctors told my wife.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
So the rest of it we pretty much know, right,
And he does lots of lots of happy tears were
shed and all of that. I got back into surgery
on Tuesday. My small bowel was resectioned and the into
sucception was fixed. So I am now absorbing nutrients for
food and vitamins. So I guess whatever this into suception is.
(08:29):
It prevents your body from absorbing nutrients from your food,
which is the malabsorption. But what happens to your body
on an into sucception? And what freakish photo are you
looking at?
Speaker 6 (08:47):
No offense, wes, but this is what it looks like
when you have a small intestine with into suception.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
But why what? What's why is one inside the other?
Speaker 6 (08:58):
You see it sort of as fixing over and then into.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Oh so that's not two parts of the that's not
two parts of the intestine that's folded on itself and
goes into the intestine.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
And how does that even happen?
Speaker 6 (09:17):
Well, this is from the Mayo Clinic and they say
this is very rare. Oh really, yes, So I don't
know how many people you may be able to find.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
What would even cause that?
Speaker 6 (09:27):
The Botch's kolonoscopy, which he doesn't get into more detail about.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
So you think the Botch colonoscopy pulls your intestine into
the other part of the intestine.
Speaker 6 (09:44):
Well, he said, with that combined with that liver shock,
and listen, I don't want to scare anybody away from kolonoscopies.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
No, my god, it's the Wes has had one hundred
of them. It sounds like, yes, they are generally quite safe.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Who did I just talk to that was being a
pussy about getting a colonoscopy.
Speaker 6 (10:05):
And I yelled at him so afraid of an age
where they should be getting one.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
Yes, now you also had.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
I will never, I will never, I will never get
a prostate exam. I no, no, no, but you had
to be another prostate exam for a colonoscopy. Just but
not because I was lazy. That because I was lazy,
not because I was scared. Oh okay, but yeah, I don't.
I don't care about that.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
You go to sleep. They they too. You're done.
Speaker 6 (10:36):
This is an exception. Is most common in children under three.
Speaker 4 (10:41):
Yeah, there's a lot of graphics of babies having.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
Wait because like their intestines aren't strong.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
Does Wes have the intestines of a three year old?
Speaker 7 (10:50):
No?
Speaker 1 (10:50):
He had the botched calenoscopy with the liver shock. You
would think a big manly voice like that. But the
intestione of.
Speaker 6 (10:56):
A baby, sometimes in adults there are the result of
a tumor. Oh minor procedure with kids also can push
the intestine back into.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Position mine three, Hi, y Ellie at the morning, birthday salad.
Speaker 8 (11:18):
Hi, happy birthday.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
Oh my god, thank you, thank you. Happy birthday to
you too. What can I do for you?
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Well?
Speaker 8 (11:24):
Thank you. So my son actually had into deception when
he was ten months.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
Old, and from what Diane and Tyler were saying, it
sounds like it happens a little more frequently with kids.
Speaker 4 (11:39):
It does, but.
Speaker 8 (11:41):
It's never the first go to sought for pediatricians.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
Right, I get that if it's so rare.
Speaker 8 (11:49):
Yeah. So unfortunately it gets really bad before they go, oh, this.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
Is what it is.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
You know what it looks like in that picture, and
it looks like me, maybe I'm onto it. But if
you it's like the intestine folding in on itself. You
know what it's like if you had like a long telescope,
that's how it's described, and you popped it really, oh
my god, we got men genius and you pushed it together.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
It folds in on itself.
Speaker 8 (12:16):
Yeah, so my son's Basically what happened is nine inches
of his intestine went over his colon and closed it off,
and then another section collapsed on itself. So when we
found out about it, he basically turned yellow. He wasn't
(12:37):
able to keep anything down. It almost it's almost like
a blockage. So when he got to the hospital, they
tried to basically shoot air up his butt right to
try and rectify it. They couldn't do it that way,
so they ended up having to go and and do surgery.
(12:57):
They pulled the section off off of his colon, but
then had to remove nine inches of his intestine.
Speaker 6 (13:04):
God, wow, did he have and I'm seeing a lot
of photos of it? Did he have the jelly stool?
The current jelly stool?
Speaker 2 (13:13):
They call it? Look a look at which.
Speaker 8 (13:17):
Was hard because he was he was still a baby. Yeah,
I stuck anyways, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
Oh my god, wait a minute to say this.
Speaker 6 (13:27):
They say, this is the number one uh symptom in children.
This and it looks like it looks like food. It
really does look like What was that one you wanted
us to get the Advent calendar?
Speaker 2 (13:41):
What was that company of.
Speaker 4 (13:42):
The jams and jellies one?
Speaker 7 (13:43):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (13:43):
Yeah, Oh that's right.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
Yeah, I can't remember the name, but yeah, the famous
jam company.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
It doesn't looks like you're crap and smuckers.
Speaker 6 (13:51):
And it's the mucus mixing with blood. Oh Jesus, coristage
understandable language.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
But is that a is that? Is that what everybody has?
Speaker 1 (14:00):
So?
Speaker 3 (14:00):
Like?
Speaker 2 (14:01):
Was it Wes? Was Wes letting? No, I'm being serious.
It says for children.
Speaker 4 (14:05):
Yeah, okay, I don't know that Wes would have seen
that in his underwear. Apologies, that was real awkward.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
But they try to fix it by blowing air into
the tushy.
Speaker 8 (14:18):
Yeah. Yeah, they basically put him in a cone because
he was a baby, right, and just kept shooting air
bursts up his rectum to try.
Speaker 7 (14:31):
And clear it.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
I am going to take a preventative approach and every
day when we get off, I'm going to blow into
Dian's tushy.
Speaker 4 (14:41):
Just safety first, all right.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
And now he's fine, Now right, he's fine.
Speaker 8 (14:50):
I mean, he does have some scar tissue and he's
you know, he's never been diagnosed with you know, mount
nutrition or malabsorbed, but he's always had a very tough
time gaining weight or keeping weight on God bless so
he does, like I said, he deals with some scar
(15:11):
tissues which does affect like his bowel habits. He's almost thirty.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
Now, oh oh good, good, good, well that makes me
happy to hear.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
All right, very good, very good. I appreciate it. Thank you, ma'am,
thank you.
Speaker 6 (15:26):
That's crazy Silvio who does have a white coat on
in his ex profile pictures, so he must be a doctor, right,
says very bad condition in young children.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
So that's where it hits most of the time. Hey,
can what's what's the doctor's name.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
Doctor Sylvia? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (15:46):
Why what would have happened with Wes's colonoscopy?
Speaker 6 (15:53):
Anita had one and emergency surgery for it and actually
four other ballo obstructions to oh with it.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
So wait, so she had into suception and four other blockages.
Speaker 6 (16:06):
Yes, how soon? I mean, I understand Wess ignored some
of his.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
Well, he said that he was he was exhausting, Yeah,
and he just put it off.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
But is he?
Speaker 6 (16:21):
I know that they were lucky to get him out
of that hotel room time to get him to the hospital,
but to go so long with the into suception and
the mal absorption is a year an incredible strain on
the body, like the fact that he made it that long.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
Oh, like he should have collapsed after six months, shocking
to doctor Silvio.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
Yeah, I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
I just think every time Wes yells, unleash the fury,
like some duty has to come out God.
Speaker 6 (16:54):
Unleash the jelly that's on Diana.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
Hey, Wes, what's the different street jelly?
Speaker 6 (17:00):
Jam Elliott, I guess it's your birthday.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
Thank you lines Hi Elliott in the morning. Hello, Yeah, Hi,
who's that?
Speaker 7 (17:14):
This is Lisa in Waldorf.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
Yes, what can I do for you?
Speaker 7 (17:18):
I actually had a dog who had the exact same
intestinal issue as a puppy, complete freak thing. He ended
up dying from it, unfortunately. Yes, it was totally freaked thing.
He was sick as a puppy. Nobody could really figure
out what was wrong. And then one day we took
him to the vet like something terribly terribly wrong all
of a sudden, and they ended up doing a stick
(17:39):
a needle in his belly and he was septics. Those
intestine had popped, and I found out that the intestina
had gone in inside of itself and basically popped.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
Interesting.
Speaker 7 (17:51):
Yeah, a total freak accident.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
Yeah, and you.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
Know what, I'm sorry to hear that, but I guess
there you learned dogs can get it. But like Wes
even says in here, like he was supposed to be done,
he did get a blood transfusion watch.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
He'll be allergic to cigarettes.
Speaker 6 (18:10):
Does Wes smoke?
Speaker 7 (18:11):
No?
Speaker 4 (18:12):
I didn't think so.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
I don't know. Guess he's not cool.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
I've never smoked with him. On Tuesday, my small bowel
was resectioned and the into sucception was fixed. I'm now
absorbing nutrients and food and vitamins. I'm stiff, sore and
walking it off carefully. My voice is back, my energy
(18:38):
is returning, my enthusiasm is sky high. I'm grateful for
this second least on life. So does he probably does
feel like he cheated death?
Speaker 4 (18:46):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (18:46):
Well he told us.
Speaker 5 (18:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (18:47):
Does this set him back though, because when we talked
to him, they still didn't know the underlying root cause,
and he was talking to us about his voice coming back.
But now does this surgery and recovery from it push
his return a few weeks?
Speaker 2 (19:01):
Oh? I don't know. That's a good question. I don't know.
Speaker 6 (19:04):
I'm trying to go through here because so many people
had well wishes for him after he revealed this surgery
and botched kleidoscophy. I don't see him estimating like when
he would be back. No, but again, just as he
saw when he was in the hospital, the outpouring of
love and support for him. Oh it's grand, as we've
seen with Locker, It's fantastic.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
Yeah, no, it's awesome. So why hockey is the greatest
sport in the world. Where am I going?
Speaker 2 (19:32):
Line two?
Speaker 7 (19:34):
Hi?
Speaker 2 (19:34):
Elliott the morning?
Speaker 5 (19:37):
Hey Elliott, what's up?
Speaker 2 (19:38):
Brother? This is Steve from Richmond. Hey, Steve, real quick?
What can I do for you?
Speaker 5 (19:42):
So you were talking about blowing air in butt holes
and it kind of reminded me. We just got back
from Belize and there's a place they're doing it around.
They blow in its butt and then they throw it
into the pen and whatever number of poops on is
the winner.
Speaker 1 (19:57):
I'm doing that with Diane. When's our next promotion? When
is our next promotion? I gotta spin Diane. Diane, You'll
put your head on a bat and walk around in
a circle, and then I blow air in your butthole
and then wherever you poop, that's the winner.
Speaker 5 (20:14):
It's called the chicken drops the real thing.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
So, but that's big and belieze, I guess so the.
Speaker 5 (20:22):
Island off the coast to Stampedro Island.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
Interesting, I've never heard of that. All right, very good,
very good. Yep, you got it. Happy birthday. That's a
good ending to our start.
Speaker 6 (20:37):
I was going to tell you that I saw Wes
did say he had a good day yesterday. Oh, excellent
lunch at Ted's Bulletin. Only soup for him.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
He didn't get the pop tarts.
Speaker 6 (20:48):
Maybe he's restricted.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
Yeah, but do you know how many nutrients are in
those pop tarts? And then he went to Captain America.
Oh did he really? Oh good for Wes.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
Good for Wes. Well, I'm glad that he shared. I'm
glad we by the way, we learned something.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
Now.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
The only part that we're missing is when does he
return and is he allergic to anything from the transfusion
like smoke,
