My good friend Vettelover was admitted to the hospital ( I think it was Thursday) and had to have an emergency opperation to remove his gaul bladder. He is home now and recouperating under the care of his lovely wife. It should not affect his trip to Disneyland comming up soon.

I had my gall bladder removed about 10 years ago. If you have any questions about the recovery let me know. I actually still have some stomach issues (TMI I am sure) because of the surgery.

If you need someone to exercise the 'vette while you're down, I'd be happy to volunteer
Hope you're back behind the wheel soon.

Oh my goodness Vettelover! Glad to see you on the forum, and I hope you have a speedy recover. I had mine removed about 12 years ago, and I must say that it was one of the more painful procedures I've had. Take it easy this next week though and you should be ready to rock for Disney!
Get well!

Hey!!!
I just went to the Dr. that operated on me and I have been cleared to go back to my part time job, AND to drive again so I can take the vette out for a romp in the park, so to speak.
Also I would like to thank ALL of you who sent get well notes and wishes, IT REALLY MEANT A LOT TO ME.

Get Well Soon!!
Excellent news!

So glad you are up and around again! Take it slow and soak up all the TLC you can!! If we could send you Mickey bars, we'd all gladly pitch in to airlift a bushel of them to you!
Mickey bars are as good as any medicine, right? 
If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.

Glad to hear you are up and cleared to work again! Mickey is always good medicine!
Yay! How was the drive? Remember to take it easy and keep us posted! 
Yeah Mickey is the best medicine for recovery.. Happy to hear he is up now.!!
