Gall Bladder

I haven't posted anything about my recent trips to the Dr and ER. For the last few months I have been experiencing pain and burning. I thought I had an ulcer or severe reflux so I just ate Prilosec and Tums like candy. Once the pain got to the point of doubling me over I decided (with much encouragement from Buffy) to head to the ER. The Doctor said that it sounded like gall bladder problems. I was like "Oh great another person in Murray with gall bladder problems". Then I was scheduled for 2 tests. The first on turned out negative for gall stones. This made me think that I was just having stomach problems. Then the other test was no so negative. Apparently I have 16% of my gall bladder functioning.

So this Wed I am scheduled to have my gall bladder taken out. I am not nervous at all probably because I just want to eat REAL food and not have to pay for it. Right now I am eating fat free, caffeine free and taste free food. I am going to suggest to my doctor that when he takes it out that he throw it against the wall and stomp it into the floor.

Yesterday was a great day at worship. Poplar Spring is really growing and moving foreword. I would ask for you to pray for us as we have some major construction decisions to make. Also it looks like the youth group will increase in size yet another year. There were 2 that graduated out and there are 8 coming in. That will put us way over the 50 mark. It is a good problem to have ...But yet a problem still.
