After having wicked symptoms Wednesday following bad ones Monday and
Tuesday, I went to the Colby hospital with suspected gall bladder problems,
confirmed with sonogram Thursday.

I had laproscopic surgery Friday noon and a 2.5x too thick gall bladder and
large stone were removed.

Lapro recovery time is astounding but the price is the diaphragm referring
pain to the right shoulder in many patients. Mine was VERY annoying but
lessened after 18 hours and was gone in 30.  I checked out 2:30 Saturday and
sang in both services this morning (not sure I benefitted the choir much,
but the lung exercise was on the orders anyway) and just have to deal with
some lingering soreness now.

Lest this start sounding even more like 14.265 on weekday mornings, I'll
sign off but I was fascinated with the process and will have a more detailed
description for anyone who requests it   [email protected]
