Guess who needs more surgery!

When I discussed surgery with my doctors, I joked with them that they should remove anything I didn't need while they were in there because I only wanted to be put under once. I specifically mentioned my gall bladder and appendix. Today I went to the urologist for scan of my kidneys and low and behold, I learned that my gall bladder is FILLED with stones! I will need it out as well! Is that ironic, or what? I guess so long as I dont have any specific gall attacks, I can wait till my next physical in January to schedule it.

The other thing that kills me is that I have had several gall bladder attacks over the past 3-4 years. I was told by a specialist that it was IBS. I have literally rolled on the floor in pain thinking nothing could be done about it. What the heck? It irritates me to no end that the doctor never ordered any test to definitively determine what was wrong and now *I* have paid the price!

Dane and Dylan were BOTH home sick today. Dane has now missed 5 days of school. UGH! He is extremely stressed about how he will get caught up with so little time left before the end of the year. I initially thought Dylan was just overtired from listening to Dane cough all night, but I took his temp this afternoon and he was almost at 102 degrees. I am SO praying he doesnt have the same thing as Dane! :( To think, we stayed healthy all winter...
