Who Needs a Gallbladder Anyway?

For a couple of days John was experiencing some sharp pains in his stomach and finally at 12:30 AM on a Thursday morning he decided it was time to go to the Hospital.  Thankfully, at that time of night it was a quick trip to the hospital in Bellevue, although John thought it took way too long.  (Should I feel bad that I laughed out loud during the car ride because “Highway to Hell” was playing on the radio?


Anyway, after several tests they diagnosed him with Pancreatitis and he needed to have his Gallbladder removed because some gall stones were causing the problem and the pain.  So after a few days in the hospital, his pancreatitis got better and they were able to perform the surgery to remove his Gallbaldder.  It took two different surgeries to get everything cleaned up and he is now on the road to recovery (not to hell).
