Topic: Gallbladder coming out tomorrow
So, I am having my gallbladder out tomorrow. I am an add on to the surgical schedule so I don't know what time. I am realizing that I have probably had gallstones for some time.

Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers tomorrow, AND - Idon't think I will be making it to HOWL on Monday. (Kate, we will meet up some time in this life :)

Topic: RE: Anyone else have Dr. Benedetto?
I had Dr Benedetto. He is a nice guy. I unfortunately got an infection after my surgery so I was not very happy with that. I had to go back into the hospital for another week which was horrible. I blame it partly on him. I guess the camera was stuck inside me for a little while and he couldn't get it out. That caused the infection. Anyways....it's unusual for that sort of thing to happen. It was just my luck I guess. He is a nice guy but sometimes rushes you in appointments. I probably would have picked the other surgeon Dr Buckley if I had known more about the two.
