| Andrea A Year of Living In My Head |
I had the surgery. My over sized non-working gall bladder was hauled out of my body. The surgery was laparoscopic -- four incisions made, to accommodate a camera, navigating tools and extraction spot. I recovered nicely, although at one point got a lecture because I thought I could be doing stuff one week after surgery. And was told, no, I needed to not be hauling stuff around for about a month.
Sigh.
I learned to be patient.
There is also the most astounding photo taken by the doc. I love it! But it is a bit graphic. My surgeon, who has a sense of humor and knows I do, when all was said and done and my surgery was over, took a pic where he arranged my gall bladder and gall stones into a smiley face.
Family members say I should put a hat on it and make it my xmas card. I am surrounded by comedians..
