Another Surgery for Nicole =(

I have had my share of health issues and have slowly tried to resolve them to the best of my ability.  I have had severe heartburn for months with no cause.  But the last week or so, my stomach had not felt good either.  Then on Friday night/Sat morning, I woke up and my stomach just hurt.  After taking some Pepto Bismol things weren't getting better and I just couldn't get comfortable.  I didn't want to wake up Paige, so I woke up Justin and told him I was going to drive myself to the hospital, but of course he doesn't remember me doing that.  I also moved his cell next to him.

I was given some things to make me comfortable and then around 7am the did an ultrasound and discovered a gall stone was obstructing a duct and causing problems.  They needed to remove it.  Within about an hour I was admitted and then I woke up and was done with my surgery.

I am recovering, but the process is somewhat slow.  Off work for 3 weeks, but not the most ideal time (Our fiscal year end is at the end of July and it is my busiest time).  I am trying to make the best of the situation.  

The good news is that I am feeling the love.  Lots of flowers and cards.  And my church has organized some meals which is so helpful!
