    Ok…they’re going to do the surgery. Well, it’s going to start as exploratory surgery and they’ll continue if it’s feasible. the doctors say it’s going to be an 8-hour surgery and they’ll remove her gall bladder as well as part of her liver. The docs say there’s a 25% chance that she won’t make it and she still needs to see the cardio guys to make sure she can put up with it.

    Thanks for the advice everyone. I actually had my mom call and the doctors said they would refer her to Sloan Kettering or The Mayo Clinic if she was willing to make the journey. My father was retired military so, thank goodness, we don’t have medical bills to worry about on top of everything. We’re located in Maryland and she’s going to Walter Reed right now.
