Leslie has emergency surgery

You never know what the end of a day will bring. Was in my PJ's last night, had just finished posting when Leslie called in excruciating pain. I suspected gall bladder( been there ,done that 35 yrs ago) as she had had a short episode about 3 days ago. Since the kids were in bed and Rob had to work tonight and needed to get at least some sleep I went to take her to ER for what we figured would be just some relief for the night.They live about 3 mile from the hospital and by the time I pulled in things had gone from bad to worse. She was having severe back pain, chest pain, couldn't get her breath and her arms were going numb.(She was hyperventilating)I pulled up to the ER door and then went into the "MOM" mode. I ran in to get help only to have the receptionist tell me that I needed to fill out paperwork first. She very quickly realized that I meant business when I demanded that she get me some help very quickly outside. 3 nurses and a security guard managed to get Les into a wheelchair as she was trying to pass out. I parked my truck and when I got inside they wouldn't let me in with her as "they were working on her". Needless to say the next few minutes were horrifying. I called Rob and had him come out and Amy came also. Once we knew it wasn't her heart, Amy took Brooke and Ethan to her house. They quickly put Les into la la land but it didn't last long. The Dr suspected a stone had blocked her duct so they ordered a CT scan. It was finally confirmed early this morning that she had a blocked duct and it was very infected. She had surgery before noon. We were very blessed and thankful that the surgeon and anesthetist were friends and members of our church. The surgeon is actually Les's neighbor. Mike(The surgeon)brought us a pic of the gall bladder and he said it was swollen almost 4 X its normal size.She was feeling good this afternoon and Mike said she could go home as soon as the Dr who admitted her this morning signed her release papers. Finally at around 3 I was getting delirious and decided I had better get home while my eyes were still open. It is just after 6:30 PM and Les just called to say that the nurses just realized the Dr they were waiting on was home asleep. So they are trying to get another one to sign her release papers. So thanks for your prayers this morning and I sure won't have any trouble sleeping tonight. Pray for a quick recovery for Les.
