Gallbladder Surgery - Cholecystectomy

Starting tomorrow, I’ll be away from home for a couple of days. My mom will undergo Cholecystectomy gallbladder surgery in a hospital in Sta. Maria Bulacan to remove her gallbladder and gallstones. It has been several months ago, when she complained that her stomach was aching. She got confined then and was immediately told that she needs to have operation. But just to make sure, we went for a 2^nd opinion to a doctor here in Manila. She was given some medication but was also advised that if the pain strikes again, she must proceed with the operation.

Now is the time. And we made sure that she’s physically and mentally prepared for it. All we need to do is to keep on praying that everything will turn out well. Your prayers for my mom and our family are very much welcome.

Prevention is still better than cure, so I am sharing what I found to be the causes of gallstones to increase awareness of the things that we should avoid.

In case you have gallstones, early detection could prevent you from acquiring more severe complications. You may want to check also for its symptoms in order to make yourself better prepared.

As the saying goes, Health is Wealth. I am hoping that I’ll be able to get more prayers for my mom through this... Thanks for spending time reading.

Update:
My mom had undergone the traditional gallbladder surgery (cholecystectomy) instead of Laparoscopic since her gallbladder already constricted and was quite hard to remove. She stayed in the hospital for only 3 days and is now fast recovering. Thanks for all your prayers! :-)
