LT,
Prayers have been sent for a speedy recovery and as little discomfort as possible. Take care, and keep us updated as convenient.

In from hospital. The trouble is 2 fold, unrelated, & both at the same time.
Gallbladder needs to come out eventually. They have it settled down & said we could do it now or weight til later. We have opted to wait til later because we would rather have a different surgeon than the one we had to see over the wk-nd.
The other is a colen infection. They are giving her one more night & tomorrow of antibiotic & will be able to come home tomorrow. WE will have to schedule a colonostomy {SP} in the next few days & see what is causing it.
We are glad it was not her appendix.
Thank you all for your prayers & PMs. I have them printed out to take to her. Will give another if anything changes.
LT.

LT, that all sounds rather painful.
Marty and I are praying for skilled surgeons, speedy recovery, and minimal discomfort for Barbara.
YOU, sir, please take care of yourself also!

Barbara is doing better this morning. GB has settled down & they are way more concerned about her colon than the rest. We saw the DR this morning & I am making a round to the house before returning.
She gets breakfast this morning & if she holds it down they will let her come home. We will schedule the GB for later. She will have a colon test next week & go from there.
I have some necessaries to take care of this morning & then return to make sure she is able to keep food down.
Your prayers are sweet. She read all that were posted yesterday & I will take these to her at my return.

Thank you all for prayers, calls & PMs.
