Those of you NOT in the "know": Ellie Mae was found to be in possession of bladder stones. It was very...painful for ALL of us. It finally reached the point that we could no longer be patient for them to dissolve so surgery was initiated. A couple of stones were blocking her urethra completely.
One pick shows the stones and one boulder taken out. The other shows her and her new fashion accessory. Notice that she's now a gangsta and packing a la the pushed up sleeve on one leg.
