Incredible surgery!



So today was the day to remove THE stone. It was like birthing out a calf from that poor little bladder. The wall of the bladder so thickened that closing my incision was rather interesting. The sutures kept trying to rip through the muscle - I have had more fun in my time with bladders. I did have a hugh sigh of relief when we filled the bladder with saline to make sure my two layers would hold.

Wish I could save the stone but we are going to do the responsible thing and send it away for analysis.
