    A 65-year-old man, Mr. Black was taken to emergency ward complaining of severe abdominal pain from his upper right abdomen to his mid back as sharp and boring pain after ingestion of fatty rich foods. Mr. Black was felt nauseated at that time but did not vomit and stated that he had a similar attack in the past month, but ‘none as bad as this’.

    “[Symptoms] of gallstones or a gallstone attack include [severe] pain in the upper right side of the abdomen that starts suddenly and lasts from 30 minutes to several hours [and pain] under the right shoulder or in the right shoulder blade” (Risks of Obesity: Gallstones). Obesity can drastically increase the risk of having gallstone attacks due to the increased production of gallstones. To prevent the risk of gallstone attacks, many obese people who have encountered these symptoms decide to undergo a cholecystectomy, or gallbladder surgery, to prevent any further harm. “If a patient has experienced symptomatic gallstones prior to choosing their treatment therapy, then it is logical and appropriate to perform a cholecystectomy either before or concurrently with the treatment option” (Gallbladder Disease and the Obese Patient). The costs of having this surgery can be expensive for health insurance companies or, without health insurance, the person having the surgery.…

    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.…

    While medical care was available growing up, there were financial or situational periods where it was not necessarily accessible. I am from a single parent family. My mother moved in with my grandparents after her divorce and works two full time jobs to help provide for my brother, grandparents, and I.

    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.…
