Just got an update from Karen and she WILL have to have surgery AGAIN tomorrow for the Gallstones that they just operated on last week!  This week-end (yesterday to be exact) we talked on the phone and she had to go BACK to the ER yesterday morning as she woke up at 3:30 am vomiting and continued with VIOLENT vomiting until 10:00 am when she went back in to the ER and got shots to help her.  When I talked to her she was EXTREMELY tired and not felling very well!!  

PLEASE say a LOT of Prayers for her as she REALLY needs OUR support right now MORE than ever!!!.......Mama Sherry

Thanks for keeping me updated and sharing this with the Forum. Last time I chatted with her she was not doing well at all...now this!!

She has been in my prayers...as all of you often are...but I will say some extra ones for our dear Karen. I don't know how much more she can take...this is highly unusual to have to repeat surgery for yet another gallstone.

Surely she is sick and tired of being sick and tired.

Thanks for posting Sherry!!

I know she has been dealing with so much bless her heart, I hope this surgery will be her last for awhile.
I have been trying to leave the house now for over an hour but I am glad I got to hear about Karen and was able to send her well wishes:)

Jaded, I'll be sure and tell her that you are VERY concerned about her also. She will appreciate all the Love and concern so very much!!  

I know that EVERYONE here is as frustrated as she is that a mistake of this proportion could be made in this day and age as to MISS a Gallstone when they JUST did surgery FOR them LAST WEEK!!!

I'll pass it along Jaded........Mama Sherry

We are keeping you busy Mama Sherry! We all want to pass along our thoughts and prayers! This is so unbelievable that she has to have another surgery...I surely hope this will take care of the problem.  I was just thinking about her a couple hours ago, wondering how she was doing...hoping she did not go to work today---hoping she was able to rest a few more days...and now this! It's one of those times I wish we were all a little closer in proximity so that we could really help each other out when the need is so strong.  Thank you for passing all the messages along...I will really be praying...our prayers have been answered for others on this forum, and now, they need to be answered for Karen.
Thanks again:)

Absolutely!! You are so right, Allison.  I feel the same way that you do about us all needing to be closer in proximity to each other to help when an emergency arises such as this!  I'm VERY concerned about her and will let her know your kind words that you sent along to her.

She actually went in to work last Saturday!! It wasn't the wisest decision BUT she had missed SO much work already this year that she felt there was NO choice for her.  I just feel so badly for her as you all do too!!

Thanks again,Allison and I will text her right now!!........Mama Sherry

I know how worried she was about work.  Tell her to try not to stress about work and to focus on feeling better.  I know it's easy for us to say, but there is just nothing she can do about missing work when there are just big things going on in her body.  
Optimus, you are so right.  Time and time again our prayers are answered here and now it's Karen's turn for a big breakthrough!  She really need and deserves a break.  I wish we could be closer to eachother, too!  I hope Karen knows we are there in spirit.
Thanks for keeping us updated, Mama Sherry!

I'm so sorry for Karen!  I pray that she does well with this surgery and has a very quick recoverey.  I feel so bad for her.  They must of dropped a stone in the tube and clipped it shut.  Oh no!  How painful!  Poor Karen.  I hope she is okay.

how awful!!! Tell her I wish her a speedy recovery. If she's in the mood for a bad joke- tell her my two young sons would like the Dr to save the stones so they can put it in their rock tumbler/polisher machine, lol.

Hey Sherry,

I forgot to ask you earlier if there is any "news" on our Karen?

Thanks,

Hi Guys,

Tuck - No, so far there's STILL no word from our Karen.  We may not here anything for quite awhile. Possibly not until tomorrow.  I know that I texted her MANY times yesterday but she didn't answer ANY of them. So chances are that she put her phone  away and was in tests all day long.

She didn't give my ANY indication of a time for her surgery as she MAY not have known as yet.

RunningMom - I can't believe that they could have been so careless as to leave one behind.   I just can't fathom the pain that it must have caused OUR Girl!!!  I will pass along your well wishes to her. :)

Mellissaky - We missed you while you were off.  Didn't think this would happen while you were gone for that short period of time did you. :(  I'll let her know what you've said.:)  

Opus88 - I've sen your best wishe  and your Prayers to Karen, also.  :) She'll appreciate it VERY much. :)

Troubleinohio -  Believe me I WILL tell her about your Sons wishes - LOL Just like a Kid!! I love it and I know trhat SHE'LL get a big kick out of it!! I'll tell her what you said also!!

Mellie4 - Of course I will send your best wishes to her!  I'll let her know that you have her in your Prayers also - :)

Thank you all, she will be VERY touched by the love and concern that you have all shown to her. :)..........Mama Sherry

I JUST got a text message from Karen and they have finished the Surgery and it seems that there was a lot of SLUDGE that they had to clean out of her. So they've done that.  If they keep her longer then I'll let you all know. IF they release her then I'm sure that she will give ALL of us a PERSONAL UPDATE!!!

THAT'S what I'm hoping for is a PERSONAL update for us all!!!
Good Wishes from everyone!!

Thank you so much for Helping her get through this. Once again, ALL of you have helped another Friend on MH get through a VERY tough Crisis!! You are ALL the Greatest!!!.......Mama Sherry
