Team Thompson against gallbladders

Calling all readers! Calling all readers! Our friend Sarah Cox is having her gallbladder removed tomorrow so please keep her and her family in your prayers!

The pesky little bugger started acting up when Sarah was about four months pregnant with the handsome Eli (who made his debut on the blog in November 2008). It was at the pinnacle of peskiness on the eve of our wedding, so she had to spend some time in the hospital, but was a trooper during the wedding and reception. It turns out this isn't exactly uncommon amongst women, particularly those who are pregnant. The more people I mention this to, the more I learn about friends and family who have undergone the same procedure.

Other pesky body parts Team Thompson does not support include: sinus cavities, ACLs, MCLs, lower intestines, appendixes (appendi?), finger tips, tonsils or adenoids. The list goes on, but because of the extremity of their peskiness, we chose not to recognize them. Don't worry, they know who they are.

Thanks for sending Sarah some positive vibes and happy thoughts!

LOL finger tips!!!! You certainly know how to bring a smile to my face friend! We'll keep you updated tomorrow. :-)... Am I really the only one who ever comments?...

Well, you're not the only one, but the two of us are the only two people I know that don't work during the day at this point...I'm sure as Thursday hits, the blog won't get much attention anymore :)

Geeze, Chris, don't you dare neglect this blog just because you have a job--congrats BTW--how will I get to see the beautiful scenery of whatever part of CA you are living in if you quit posting. Actually I was just thinking this morning how cool it was that you guys just take off and go touring! Keep up the good work!
