Yesterday the doctor took the stitchs out from the surgery. The doctor said he wants to see me again next month but all looks well. I am very grateful for everyone's prayers. He still has ordered "bedrest"...that is not easy for me. I don't know how people's stomachs look like after gall bladder surgery but my stomach is black and blue! Looks like I have been in a fight! Ha...

However I am sure I am on the mend...
I love you folks very much...Please forgive me at times for my plain speech...

Sis Alvear, glad to hear you are getting better. You don't need any forgiving-it is us in North America that needs forgiveness.
Except for those that have been on the foreign field such as yourself, we in North America don't really know sacriice.

God Bless you richlly Sis Alvear!

Bedrest is to keep the area from becoming infected on the inside.

God Bless You, and thanks for the update!

Did they do the Micro-type surgery?

the kind they cut you in 5 places tiny cuts...but bruised my stomach...but I feel much better...
I am deeply thankful for prayers of God's people. I really am not afraid of the doctors it is our hospitals in the northeast that bother me...but God has given me grace...and His people's encouragement has given me strength...
