Kinda Blew the Anniversary

So yesterday, July 4th, was our 4 year anniversary ... I woke up with the pain in my rib cage and back just as bad as it was last month ... but I was ignoring the pain ... I mean it is the 4th of July ... my favorite holiday ...

We were going to my parents house to cookout and watch the fireworks ... my dad got steaks ... and I was so excited ... I even made Elmo cupcakes (I'll insert the photo later) which Curly Top LOVED ..

While we were there I spent most of the evening writhing in pain ... had maybe 2 bites of baked potato and maybe a bite or two of steak ... and of course a cupcake ...

My mom off-handedly said, "Maybe it is your gallbladder." ... I went and looked it up online and all of a sudden it was clicking ... everything it described is what I was feeling ...

We had PJs with us for Curly Top since we would be coming home late so we just let her stay there ... and D brought me to the hospital ...

Well ... turns out ... my mom was right ... and in a big way ... the doctor said he couldn't believe I waited so long ... so not only are there gallstones ... there is an infection ... it is swollen and surrounded by fluid ... and it has got to come out ...

I was admitted to the hospital from the ER ... and have been on IV Antibiotics all day ... and I am starving ... so so starving ... the last big thing I had to eat was 1/2 a bowl of cheerios on Friday at 7 AM ... the commercials are killing me ... everything looks so tasty ...

So I started out in a horrible room ... an older woman with phenomenawho had visitors all day ... coughed all the time ... fought with her husband ... kept the lights on ... it just sucked ... so I sucked it up and asked if I could move to another room ... and woohoooo they moved me and it is so much better ... right now I am the only one in here and it is fantastic ...

Now if I could just have something to eat I would be pretty happy ...
