Susan went to the hospital yesterday with another gall bladder attack....this one had lasted for 3 days. Sure enough, they admitted her and took her to surgery last night. They were able to do the surgery laprascopically (no big incision) and planned to send her home today (Halloween). However, her bloodwork today showed that her liver enzymes were still elevated, so they are worried that there may be a stone stuck in a duct somewhere....either the liver or the pancreas. I guess her gall bladder was FULL of stones, and they said it was a good thing it came out....she was headed for a really nasty infection. Baby is looking great, by the way, she heard the heartbeat the morning after surgery.
If her liver enzymes don't start coming down by tomorrow, they may have to take her back in for another surgery and look for that stone. She really doesnt want to do it again, but she knows the doctors will do what is best for her and the baby.
Please keep her and Jaba and their family in your thoughts and prayers. We'll keep updating as we know more.
