When it rains...

...it pours.
I am just back from hospital after undergoing emergency surgery to remove my gall bladder.
I hadn't a clue I had problems, but from the state of the organ it must have been flaring up for months. The surgery was laproscopic and took four times longer than the surgeon anticipated.
Now I have a drainage reservoir coming out from a tube on my side so I will not be fitting anything on myself for a while.
It is a good thing I have a few dresses booked.

How horrid for you. Hopefully once you recover from the surgery you will have better health - a grumbly gall bladder + the gas leak can not have been making you feel good! I wish you good sewing.

Hope you feel much better soon and that that is the end of your problems. It must have come on suddenly for you to need emergeency procedure but brilliant that keyhole surgery was possible!
Take care :o)

Oh sweetie, hope that heals up well. At least its keyhole now, my mother has a big scar from hers done in the 80s.

Well now that you have got that out of the way.....you can get on with all of the good things that are going to happen this year!

Don't be shy to ask for help if you need it. There are plenty of us willing to pinch in if you need it!

Feel better.
