Still in the hospital

Surgery was last night but had a long delay time before I could do it. Seems no one had calculated the time since I last ate. I was sent back to my room and had a nice visit with mother-in-law and boyfriend. After they left, I tried to sleep but kept getting interrupted, so I gave up, got out the laptop and did notes for one of the Podcast sermons I keep meaning to get to. Finally about 9 or so they took me down for the surgery. Was back in the room by 11:00.

Josh came in and we talked about stuff till 2 AM. All sorts of stuff. It was a nice visit even thought I had a little pain. Conversations just went all over the place. Have not had a visit with Josh like that for a long time.

This morning, the want to do an MRI. Seems the procedure can leave some stones behind and they want to make sure that they get them out. Dr. said the gall bladder I had was in bad shape and was ganerous. Guess it was time to get it done. I am a little sore this morning but I can not take an aspirin because of the MRI. No food or drink. It was kind of funny last night as I got back to the room at 11 PM and could not have drink after 12. I was given some ice chips and a Popsicle, but had to quit an hour later. My throat is extremely dry right now. Would love some fluids but will have to wait.
