Just got off the phone with Mel, We had another long converstation.
Gayles surgery did not go as well as expected, they could not find the kidney stones, then the doctor came and told Mel they had torn the euritha (don't know how close my spelling is), so now they have 3 options 1. To try and repair the tear, they believe it happened from long term wear of the stone or she passed it and it tore this doctor has never seen this before. 2. To rerout the kidney to the eurthia on the other side. 3. Which is the most involved surgery, not doing a real transplant, but a transplant team would lower the kidney which is what they do during a transplant. The 1st and 3rd are the best the 2nd is pretty much really the last choice, they (mel) is leaning toward 3, it is more involved but, would really be the best.
He's going back to the hospital in a few hours will keep someone updated.said thank you for the support and prayers! He will be back on line when he can.
Again Thank-You To All !

Ps They are not going to worry about the gall stones for right now, and they said if a stone had entered the stomach it could stay there without any problems.
