    The cons of waiting before surgically removing Mrs. D’ Angelo’s gallbladder include the associated risks of developing an infection and continuing to feel pain. People with gallstones experience painful symptoms such as severe pain, fever, blockages of the bowel, or blood poisoning (Brisbane Liver & Gallbladder Surgery, 2012). As the pain continues, Mrs. D’ Angelo will continue suffering discomfort and most likely continue requiring pain medication. In severe cases, gallstones can cause life-threatening inflammation of the pancreas or jaundice (Brisbane Liver & Gallbladder Surgery, 2012). If Mrs. D’ Angelo has to continue waiting for surgery, she may also complicate the procedure when she does have it by allowing more time for the stones…

    I looked around and I wasn’t in my room anymore, I was in the hospital during my grandpa’s surgery. The waiting room was cold and sterile and the smell of antiseptic was so strong I could taste it. Waves of uneasiness washed over me as if they were trying to drown me. My grandma and my mother were sitting in the room with me and they looked just as scared. I remembered how long my grandpa was in surgery to get his windpipe removed, how I had thought that I wouldn’t make it through the hours he was and that if he didn’t then I wouldn’t make it for much longer afterward.…

    Tears stained my face as I contemplated the outcome. I could barely imagine what life would be like on the other side of this tragedy. My eyes squeezed shut, and I wished everything would go back to normal. My grandfather had recently been admitted to the Lancaster General Hospital suddenly, with the diagnoses of Congestive Heart Failure. He only had a few weeks to live, if he didn’t consent to have open heart surgery. A new heart valve was a lifeline for my Pop-pop (that’s what we call him). The blood flow weakened inside of my Pop-pop’s veins, and our only hope was an artificial heart valve, harvested from a cow.…
