In case you haven't heard, my little sister had to take a break from teaching.
Five weeks into her first year as a teacher, she had an appendicitis attack, so Sunday night she had emergency surgery to have her appendix removed. And therefore has to take a week off from teaching.
Carl had told Mom that she had a stomach ache, but she attributed it to digestive issues. But by Sunday it wasn't better, and she called Mom crying. For those of you that don't know Carlsie, she doesn't cry. And Mom told her to go to the hospital. They transferred her to a bigger hospital an hour and a half away, where Mom met her after the surgery was over.
What is it with my sisters and emergency surgeries? Two weeks ago, my older sister had to have "semi-emergency" surgery to fix a hernia. (Apparently "semi-emergency" means: not important enough to do immediately after the Friday doctor appointment, but important enough that it can't wait until Monday.)
Anyways. That's what's up with that. Keep her in your prayers.

We are praying for Carlsie. I am glad the doctors got it right the first time. With my Dad, he had one attack that was called something else even though some of the nurses disagreed. 6 months later he was taken to Wichita to have the appendix out. He has been doing great ever since....
