I am back minus a really sick gall bladder. Last week was not fun. I got really sick and ended up having emergency surgery. I am sore but feel much better than I did last week. I haven't been feeling well but didn't realize that I had a real problem. They told me that if I hadn't gotten in when I did I would have been in serious trouble. The night I got so sick Sophie sat beside me and kept kissing my hand and rubbing it, I thought it was so sweet.

Wow, that is scary Sandi! Glad to hear that you are doing better and that your furry nurse, Sophie was there to comfort you. Give her some treats and cuddles. Gentle hugs to you.

Boy, I've been where you were, Sandi, those d**n gall bladders are tricky things. The good news is - recuperation usually is quick and you will feel soooooooooo much better without the pesky thing.
Try not to laugh for the next few weeks - laughing really hurts.

And coughing is no fun either. I'm glad its behind me. The cats think the flowers I got are for their dining enjoyment. Anyone know where to put them so I can enjoy them without them being destroyed by the fur babies.

Goodness, Sandi - how awful that you got so sick. Gallbladder can be tough to diagnosis but when it's bad it is really bad. Sophie, you curl up with your mama and give her lots of extra attention.
Take good care, Sandi. Gather your strength and get well! { {{{hugs}}}}

Glad to see that you are back Sandi, had been wondering about you lately. Hope that you heal quickly and get back to feeling better soon. Rest while you can and enjoy Nurse Sophie's attention.

Oh my, Sandi, so glad you are ok! Must have been a scary time! I read the other post first from Tessie and got quite worried about you, so started to work through the other threads to see if I could find out what happened. Many hugs to you and your fur babies!

Here's hoping every day is better as you recover. Cats always seem to know when you need a little TLC. Sophie's care will keep you in good spirits.

Thanks everyone. Sophie is doing a good job as Nurse Cat. Tessie is irritated because I won't let her eat my flowers and Molly is irritated at the whole situation (mostly visitors are not her thing). My Mom is having knee replacement surgery today and I'm sorry that I am not able to be at the hospital or too help her much. I have sisters that are but I can't so not happy about that. I'm grateful for a large family, though

Yay, Sophie! Keep taking good care of your mama. Tessie, Willow completely shares your frustration at not being allowed to eat flowers. There simply isn't a bud or leaf that she doesn't try to nibble on.
Sandi, so sorry to hear about your mom. I hope that her surgery goes well. Don't worry about not going to the hospital. My theory, when working on a surgical unit, was always that if people were sick enough to be in the hospital, they really didn't need visitors anyway!

WWM, I agree about visitors, esp those people you seldom ever see who when they hear you are in the hospital beat it right over there . . . then you go home and hear from no one. I think hospital visitation is a holdover from the days when they kept you for days, even weeks and by then you were glad to see someone LOL. Its just nerve wracking when someone is in surgery so I wanted to be with my sisters for moral support

I know, Sandi. But your mom knows that you are there in spirit and you need to take care of you right now.

And I am doing that, that will ease her mind also. My sister called hours ago and said she came through surgery fine and was in recovery. I haven't heard anything since. I hate to call because I know how irritating the darn phone was when I was in and something would be going on or I was trying to sleep.

Sandi, the old adage applies here - if there is bad news, you will hear. If everything is fine... silence.... Go to sleep!

WWM, I thought that too. Just talked to my sister who said that Mom was off running done the hall with tubes flying and nurses trying to catch her then I talked to my Mom who told me a more sedate version but she is doing good, and has been up and sounded good. I'll rest easy.
