Mary had two surgeries

On October 13, about one month AFTER having her baby,
Mary had gallbladder surgery at Revere Surgical Center.

When the doctor came out after the surgery, he told Adam that
Mary had to have surgery the next day to get the gall stones
out of the bile duct.

So Mary continued to go without food so she could have
surgery on Friday October 14, to get the "multiple"
gall stones out of the bile duct.

Depending on who you ask, this second procedure
can create problems with the pancreas.  Adam thinks the
gall stone attacks while Mary was pregnant impacted
the pancreas.  She had a gallstone at the base of the bile
duct almost blocking it and almost touching the pancreas.

At any rate due to the pancreas situation, the recovery
may be REAL slow.

Mary left the hospital faster after the second surgery
about 2 hours after the procedure, than the first procedure.
