Cut

Natan had an emergency appendectomy today! He went to the emergency room yesterday because he was in pain because he didn't know what was wrong with him and it turns out it was his appendix.

The appendix is that weird wormlike thing at the bottom.
Appendixes are so strange, I was asking my mom all about and what it does and how it could just be removed and it doesn't seem to effect you afterwords. Apparently people are still trying to figure out what exactly it does. My mom compared it to your tonsils, it basically helps fight off bacteria in your body. The human body is so neat, because tonsils shrink as you get older and your body no longer needs them!
Any way Natan is doing well and hopefully can check out of the hospital tomorrow.
