Gallbladder

It's official.  That little organ in my body that I'm sure serves SOME sort of vital importance (despite what the docs say) is getting removed.  On Wednesday.  The 17th.

Yes, that's 8 days before Christmas.  I hope the doc is right and my down time really will be 3-5 days.  It also gave me an awesome excuse to NOT have to do much during Christmas.  I'll probably only make a cheese ball and a few other things to take to my moms and otherwise claim maimed.

So, I ask that you say a prayer for me for a successful surgery and a speedy, painless recovery.  I'm quite a bit nervous...not about the surgery itself, but for those who know me and about my puking phobia....

As long as they keep me from puking afterwards, I can deal with anything!  (Funny how that works, huh?)

One of the pastors at our church JUST had his removed. His recovery time was 3-5 days.

I wish it goes swiftly and smoothly and for a quick recovery for you.

Good luck!
