Surgery Update...

I had my gallbladder taken out this morning at 7am and was in the hospital until 1pm. Everything went well and supposedly there were stones that they found so hopefully that will be the end my problems. Today I am quite sore and I would best describe it as feeling as though I have been used as a punching bag. Though the most distressing thing is that though I had 4 incisions, one of them happened to be through my belly button, which is not only the most painful but the absolute "grossest" thing ever...YUCK! For those of you who know, I have a thing against bellybuttons in general and when Michaela used to stick her finger in mine (like she does her own, thinking she will get a laugh) I about climb the wall :) So we will see how it heals.

I appreciate any prayers that were sent my way and continue to pray that things will heal quickly. Supposedly I am not supposed to lift Michaela for two weeks, but we will see how it goes.

Thanks again everyone.

Wonderful news that everything seems to have gone well. Hopefully the doctor told Malcolm that he needs to do all the cooking, cleaning, lifting, etc.... :o) and that you're able to rest. Get well soon, Love Mom Gold

We were so grateful to hear surgery went well! The bellybutton thing is kinda ... odd. lol Take time to let your body rest and heal; the more healing the sooner you'll be back to loving your girls up! :)
