Update on Greg

I spent most of Friday morning on the phone with doctors' offices. To make a long story short--Greg ( as of today ) will go to UNC on Wednesday to have a procedure called ERCP. The doctor will go down his throat and remove gall stones in his bile duct. This is done out patient. He will spend the night with me, and then on Wednesday, Gerald and I along with Meredith and Rusty will take him. Some time in the near future he will still have to have his gall bladder removed because the surgeon said he has tons of gall stones there. Please keep Greg in your prayers. He has been very healthy all his life so this is all very new for him.

Gregory

Yesterday I went to the doctor with my brother, Greg. He has gall stones and will have to have surgery to remove them. I am not sure when because the refering doctor didn't send his MRI, so as soon as the surgeron gets the MRI he will call me to let me know what needs to be done. There are two options-----cutting him open or laparoscopic surgery. I am praying it is laparoscopic.
