My heart goes out to y'all right now. My best friend had to have her gallbladder removed just after a complicated c-section. It was not fun for her, either.
Carey, I am so sorry to hear that and will keep Samantha in my thoughts and prayers.![]()
I was just about to send you a message via Facebook to ask how Sam was doing. Please know that the prayer warrior in me will be out in full force praying that Sam's levels become well enough for the doctors to perform the surgery and that she recovers quickly.
Tell same to get well soon![]()
I hope Sam feels better soon.That is scary.
Saying prayers for Sam and your family.
Sending prayers, positive thoughts, and good vibes. Hang in there.
Praying for Sam and you all xxx
Prayer sent from here. I just had my gallbladder out last March; I had bad, increasing pain for several months but no stones and DEFINITELY not as serious as Sam's. The surgery was very quick and when I woke up I could tell that something bad inside of me had been taken out; it was very obvious. And though there was pain after the surgery, it was much cleaner and more manageable than the gallbladder was.
I let it go too long too (stubborn as well) and it was scary to see my pancreas levels rising on the blood test, though my liver function numbers were right on track. After seeing all the test results, I dropped the stubbornness and had the surgery pretty quick.
I hope they got to operate this morning, and she's already on her way to healing.
Oh my goodness, I'm so sorry yall are going through this right now! I sincerely hope that Samantha will be back to normal soon and that everything can and will go smoothly. Definitely will keep her in my prayers.![]()
Well, my goodness!
I'm so sorry Sam is going through all this. She's definitely in my prayers for a fast recovery and return to school. But you are too. I can't even imagine how scary that is to have your child that sick.
Hang in there.
On the up side, I'm all caught up again. When you get back to life's more frivolous things, like TR's, I'll be patiently waiting.
BTW...... I've never seen SO many gorgeous photos from one BBB photo sitting. You have an absolute natural on your hands.![]()
Oh many, many hugs and prayers sent.
My sister just had hers out last week. I hope they are able to do the surgery soon, and she heals very quickly.
So sorry to read about Sam, praying for a speedy recovery.
Woah hope Sam is okay and gets well soon. Sending prayers and pixie Dust![]()

Oh, no! I hope she's feeling better soon, and that they can do the surgery. I'm thinking and praying for you all.
I don't think Carey would mind if I provide you all with an update that she posted on Facebook. I know that everybody here is wondering how Sam is doing.
She posted this to Facebook about 3 hours ago:
GOOD NEWS! Sammy's doing well enough to go home today. No lifting, driving. Or over doing it. She can go back to college next week. YAY!
That's awesome news!Huge collective sigh of relief!

Wonderful! So good to hear!
So Glad Sam is doing better!
I am grateful for the good news
Thank-you Lisa, I don't mind! :hug
Thank you again! It's been a long 5 days. Sam's surgery went well, no complications and while she has pain, it isn't too bad. Her levels are down, almost back to normal. She says she feels better. I get to keep her here at home until the weekend and then she will go back to school for Monday.
Now I just make sure she stays on her pain med schedule and getting her to drink more water.
We just did a bandage change and the wounds look good. Lets just see how long it takes before she's climbing the walls!
