My poor Butterfly went under the knife on Wednesday afternoon to remove her gallbladder; She had a really bad gallbladder attack on Monday, sending her to the hospital, after which she wasted absolutely no time booking surgery to get it outta there. She’s pretty sore, naturally, but thank goodness they perform this type of surgery laparoscopically these days–back when I was a little kid, my mom had hers out and they had to fillet her open to do so. Butterfly will be out of commission for a day or so, while my mom was laid up for six weeks.
I’m at the hospital with her, coping with my massive hospital phobia focusing on the fact that I’m with my Butterfly. Fortunately, they have WiFi access here, so I’m making this post from her bedside.

Wow. Just…wow. Technology today is remarkable. Both the surgery and the WiFi access.
If you need anything, let us know. And give our best to Butterfly.
