Sandy's Gall Bladder

For those who don't know Sandy went into the Emergency Room at Sharp Grossmont Hospital Sunday night. She was having sharp pain through her mid-abdomen. Turns out she had a gall stone impacted in her gall bladder that was causing a severe infection. She was admitted to the hospital and transferred to Sharp Memorial in Kearny Mesa. By Monday late afternoon she'd had a laparoscopic surgery to remove her gall bladder. The doctor later said her stone was about the size of a grape and she was acutely inflammed. She was kept overnight and after removing a "JP" drain tube from her side she checked out last night. I got her home at about 7:30p and she's there now.

As of this morning, she's uncomfortable, as to be expected, but happy to be home. Doc says it'll probably be about a week before she's better and may experience some effects for up to a month.
