Bye Bye Gallbladder!

I am trying to get caught up on my posting ..so I will fill in the blanks, Eddie and I were on a Date Night and about 15 mins into the movie and was struck with an EXTREME pain!! I had to leave the movie immediately and had Eddie rush me to the nearest Emergency Room! Luckily we had a babysitter at the house with Kamilo! The pain was so much worse than contractions and Kidney stones put together! The doctor soon discovered that I was having a gallstone attack, the tried convincing me to get my gallbladder removed that night but I was so not ready! I was already away from Kamilo for too long and could not imagine being away from him any longer. Well after visiting a surgeon on the 10th of November, I was told my Liver levels were at dangerous levels and I pretty much had no choice! I had to schedule the surgery that week! So on November 13th I had it removed, and had to spend a whole night away from my sweet 5 month old baby and my Husband! Two weeks later I still can't lift anything over 20 pounds (Kamilo) and am still sore! Wow two stomach surgeries in less than 6 months can where a working mom out Financially and Physically!
