A situation update:
It has been brought to our attention by my sweet and resourceful medically-knowledgable mother-in-law-to-be that surgical thread dissolves. She is of the opinion that the foreign object left in my mother's surgical wound was a SURGICAL SPONGE, which has about five inches of thread attatched to it so that they can pull it out.
And if that's true, my mother is going to have to have another surgery to remove the sponge.
Greeeeeeeat.
