This post visited Jeff Gaffud two nights ago at San Isidro Hospital and he had appendectormy by laparascopy method. He was as as rider very strong because he was able to wake up just barely 6 hours post op. Even appendectomy is done almost less traumatically using laparascopy (But expensive very expensive)

This post accompanied wife who had laparascopic choleocystectomy
Wheels of Happiness
It should have been done last July 10 but wifey chickened out and had chickened out due to fear of lack of recent lab findings. So we went to a friend who is a GIT specialist who recommended at CT scan and then afterwards to another surgeon, who recommended that we proceed with the surgery (confirming the November 2024 sonogram) because of matters that measured now at 0.8 mm (from 0.6 mm(
The surgery was performed by a veteran surgeon and former head of Phil laparascopic society, chair of the hospital general surgery. Who happened to be the classmate of former colleague at Jaycee, who was classmate of the H and W team of the guy (who is the daughter of a lelong)
This post talked to the surgeon and thanked him and the Lord for having such an expert extend the life of wife.. And talked about our commonality and connection, He is an editor, together with the husband of the sister of Jaycee colleague, of PPD (Philippine Pharmaceutical Direcotry. Their publisher happened to be former student at MBA at a GSB
See how the procedure is considered less traumatic than open surgery.
