In FRmail tonight, Aggie Mama said that she's having gallbladder removal surgery this coming Friday at 9:30 am. She guesses she's had the gallstone for a while, but didn't find out about it until 2 weeks ago.
The surgery is outpatient, but UNDERSTANDABLY, she's on edge about it. AM's run the gamut of feelings between being completely okay and being totally panicked. She's trying to keep her spirits up for herself, her young children and hubby, who's been WONDERFUL through it all.
She said to thank you in advance for your prayers. They mean the world to her.

Lord, please put your healing hand on Aggie Mama's body tonight. I pray that you give her peace, YOUR peace that passes ALL understanding. We've seen the miracles that happen when two or more of us gather in Your midst to pray, and we're asking for another tonight.
Lord, please guide the medical team who will be caring for her. Thank you for her husband, thank you for her children, thank you for all that you've blessed her with.
In Your Name, Amen

I hope you feel better and I am still praying that all goes well for you ....~Pandora~~
Prayers up!
Wow! Did you know what was causing the back pain or was the gallbladder thing a complete surprise? I've had the backpain since my daugter was a baby(she's six now), but I thought it was just from holding her on that side.
Thanks, Ditter. You seem to be reporting what everyone else has. I'm ready to get this done--I just need to get over the strep first! The hardest part is going to be keeping my 3 yr old off of me. He's such a physical little boy, always jumping and running!
Yes the 3 year old could cause trouble. At about day #4 I was in bed watching TV, feeling absolutely NO pain. I forgot and raised up too fast and must have pulled a stitch loose. WOW! I was back to day #1 with the soreness. Be careful and move slowly.
Praying.

Just wanted to let all of you wonderful people know that I go in this Friday morning for my surgery. I've been washing my hands like crazy and spraying everything with Lysol so my kids don't bring in any more germs! LOL =)
Everyone keeps telling me how much better I'm going to feel once I have the surgery done, so I am definitely looking forward to no more back pain/nausea/etc...
I'll ping you all with an update when I get back Friday afternoon from the outpatient place. So keep the prayers coming my way whenever you have a free moment. =) Thank you so very much.
Okay..thanks for letting us know.
I will pray hard on Friday..and keep you in my thoughts all day.
You will be so glad you had this done... but, I know it is still scary.
I am looking forward to your "all better" post!!!

Big ole PRAYER BUMP!!!!
Absolutely sending up prayers.
Had the same surgery except I was in the hospital as it was emergency surgery -- never knew I had a gallbladder problem until the pain struck and had to go emergency. Next day it was removed and went home that evening. Never had any more problems.
Will be thinking about her on Friday and sending up prayers! Keep us posted!
You will feel much better. I promise!
Keeping you in my prayers...~Pandora~
Thank you for the update! Prayers continue...
