I'm ready to start making extreme promises to leave this place. "Oh, Lord, if you get me out of here, I promise I'll never eat anything but salads."

The Italian Ice and Jello didn't sit well, but they let me have more Jello and some cranberry juice and a cup of pudding. I'm not sure how that counts as a liquid, but I'll take it. So far, so good.

Has anyone else had pancreatitis? How long does it usually last? My doctors are stumped by the continuing fevers. They're talking about putting me on IV nutrition.
