The stones

Well the gallbladder is gone. Jane's that is - mine was already gone. They took her for surgery at noon and told me it would be about an hour, and that they would come and tell me if they had to take it the old-fashioned way. I went to eat with the kids and was back in about an hour. I sat their for another hour and a half and still hadn't heard anything. I finally called the surgery desk, and after two hours and thirty five minutes the doctor came and told me he got it out laparascopically. But he said it took some work because it was pretty bad, and he estimated she had about 100 stones. He said she wins the prize for ugliest gallbladder of the month.

She was in recovery another hour and a half and then back to her room. She looked pretty good, and even ate a cup of jello - the first thing other than a piece of toast since Saturday. Hopefully she'll be home tomorrow, or maybe the next day.

Thanks for the prayers and concern. Peace and out.
