Gallbladder

Gallbladder n : pouch attached to the liver in which bile is stored.

As I was lying on one of those hospital beds in the E.R. at 4 in the morning on Tuesday, I kept thinking, what in the world is a gallbladder and why do I have one if they want to take it out? If they can take it out then it means I can live without one so why have it? I guess it's one of the many question I'll ask the Lord when I see him. All I know is that it sure does cause alot of pain when there is something wrong with it.

The ER Dr. said that the pain I am having is more likely caused by my gallbladder. So they sent me for an ultrasound. My Dr. called me back to tell me I have gallstones and then gave me a number for a surgeon to call and make a consultation appointment with. I'll be going this Friday to find out what they are going to do. I was hoping to keep all my parts until I was like 80 or something. I don't know. Hopefully I can take a pill. I'm scared to death about the whole idea of surgery. Even the nurse said I'm awfully young to be having gallstones. First Michael had his thing. I guess it's my turn. With Michael it was just fat cells. Mine it's a body part.
Oh Lord help me chill.
