A Day or Two Off?

Modern medicine is a wonderful thing. I had emergency surgery last night - my gall bladder was removed - and now I am recuperating. It may take a day or so - and just when I had a Great Post of Pictures of Metal Threads in the works! Ah well. Maybe I can put it together tomorrow.

First things, first...

Do enjoy the weekend for me!

Ugh! Poor you! Please take the time you need to take good care of yourself and to mend. Everything and everyone will be right here when you get back. You don't need to rush! You'll be in my thoughts, missy Mary. *hugs*

My goodness girl.... you really know how shock us awake in the morning. I am so sorry, you must have been in terrible pain and you never indicated you were even a tiny bit unwell. Looking forward to you feeling better and posting again.

Oh dear Mary...do look after you! It's a wonder what modern medicine can do, but take all the time you need to get better and don't rush back on our account!

Hope all went well. Get well soon.

I was checking all day for something new and exciting, and when there was nothing, I figured there would at least be a GOOD story behind it. Sorry to hear the real scoop :( Hope you are up on your feet and back to needles and threads real soon!

Thanks, all, for your very kind and encouraging remarks... nope, I didn't notice the type of stitch! In fact, on all five incisions, I don't think there are actually any stitches. I think they're taped. Maybe there are stitches underneath the tape? Hm. I don't think I'll play with it to find out!

You see... the honest truth is this... there are SOME threads in the world that don't thrill me the same way as others!

I'll be back around soon!

Thanks again!

Heard from Megan about your emergency trip to the hospital. It must have been excruciatingly painful. Here's hoping you are more comfortable now, and recuperating quickly. Sending you healing rays.

Primero la salud,,, asi que mucho descanso y me imagino fue por laparoscopia, si tienes muchos gases toma un te de aniz estrellado, eso ayuda a sacar el aire...
Y por favor no hacer esfuerzos....
y a hacer terapias respiratoprias...
y mis deseos que te recuperes muy pronto...
besos

Mary, sorry to hear about your sugery, I had two major ones too, this year. Take your time getting back into the thick of it your body doses need awile to heal (plus the antisetic takes a bit to get out of your system)
