Pretty much most of my life, childhood, teenagehood (is that a word?) and adulthood, I have spent some time in the hospital. I have had more organs removed than I can remember. I have had all kinds of tests, procedures, and surgeries in my lifetime. So the idea that someone can live to be over 50 and have been in the hospital only once is quite a foreign idea to me.
But that is my sweet husband. Other than being 6 years old and having his tonsils removed, he has never been hospitalized. He's never had a broken bone, or any other serious medical condition. Until now. Today he had his gallbladder removed. He came through it like a champ, and though he didn't want me to, I felt it should be documented via photography. Sadly, all I had was my camera phone.
He is peacefully sleeping in a drugged stupor right now. :) Ah modern chemistry.
All that to say, Mike has lost an organ, and gained a few scars.
