And another one bites the dust...

Well, my gallbladder removal went relatively well. Actually it was a piece of cake compared to some of the other things I've been through. It's not something I would count as pleasant....any surgery has it's downfalls no matter how great the eventual outcome makes you feel. I do wonder, however, how many organs can you live without. I've had my spleen removed, which you can live without and now my galbladder. I know you can live without your appendix, tonsils, sinuses, adnoids, and most can live with out one of the their kidneys. I'm sure there are other organs I'm forgetting to include in this list....but a part of me wanted to tell the surgeon..."just go ahead, take out anything else that I can live without" cause each time they open me up.....it's 2-6 weeks of my life I lose just sitting in front of the TV "healing". I am honestly tired of feeling poorly. I don't think anyone really realizes on a day to day basis, how badly I've felt. I conceal it pretty well, I put on my happy face and do the best I can. Something tells me my medical troubles are not over. Usually I am an optomist. I hope that everything is "cool" now and I will be feeling much better...but I do have this gut feeling that it's not over yet. Or that could be the incisions in my gut talking right now....or the drugs....who knows....only time will tell. Well for the time being I have 4 new really cool scars, my brother Scott is going to love it!
