I presented to the Hospital Emergency Room on a Friday evening very ill with severe abdominal pain. It was finally determined that I had a ruptured colon and a surgeon was called in to perform surgery on Monday morning. By the time a surgeon was called I was critically ill. Dr Douglas Downey performed surgery and after a fourteen day stay in the hospital, I was released to go home with a colostomy bag and around the clock assistance. In addition to the around the clock assistance Home Health nurses came an did wound care three times a week. in discussing my condition with family and finding out how critical I was by the time that Dr. Downey preformed the colostomy on me I know for a fact that Dr. Downey is the reason that I survived that surgery. I than God every day for sending Dr. Downey to do my surgery. Madison County Alabama is fortunate to have a World Class Surgeon in our beautiful state. A year later Dr. Downey reversed my colostomy and again did an excellent job.
