This has been quite a week. Sunday night, Kathy woke me up at 1:30 AM with severe stomache pains. We got up and after a few minutes, it was obvious it wasn't going to go away. The Benson Hospital is only a block away and we went to the ER there. After a number of tests, they determined she had pancreatitis. Later tests confirmed this and gall stones as well, so that gall bladder will have to come out soon. She spent two nights in the hospital on IV to settle down her pancreas. Hopefully, this surgery will be as simple as we have been told as there is no infection. So, it's a lo to no fat diet two days before thanksgiving, oh boy!! We had a wonderful meal in our banquet hall with the park providing 6 turkeys and 3 hams and most everyone else pot-lucking everything else. We reassembled at 6 PM for desert. What fun. Here are a few pictures of the event.
Sorry to hear about Kathy's problem. Hope she is feeling better now. It is amazing what they can do to get the gall bladder out.
ReplyDeleteWow! Kathy take care, we are glad that you have John there to care for you. I've never had gallstones or kidney stones but has friends who did and I know its not fun. We pray for you to heal well and that the pancreatitis goes away after the gallstones is gone. Have a safe and happy holidays with safe travels. Barb and Dex

Because YOU TWO know.............EVERYTHING!!!!!! :) We love you and pray for Kathy's quick healing and recovery.
