Diana's been having some serious stomach problems lately. It wasn't exactly her stomach, but it was something in her digestive track that was giving her major problems. She would feel just fine, but then all of the sudden she would have a debilitating pain in her lower abdomen. At first we thought it was just something she may have eaten, but then a day or two later it happened again. And again! She headed to the doctor to find out what it was and it turned out to be gull stones. We were told that the pains could keep happening or they could go away for years or forever and she may never have another problem again. They also suggested that she could have her gull bladder removed and it would solve the issue if they came back. We thought about it for a few days and she decided to wait a little while and see if it returned. It took about a month and a half, but the pains came back. We set up the surgery and brought her in. It was a really quick procedure, they just poke three tiny holes and take it out. It was an out patient surgery that only took about 15 minutes! She was back awake and feeling ok only about an hour after we walked in! She took the whole thing like a champ, making Ledger and I so proud! There's still some healing to do, but at least the pain will be gone.
