They're BA-ACK

Just when we almost forgot about kidney stones, they are back. Bob woke up on Tuesday with a sore back and by 11:00 a.m., he knew by the telltale signs that he was in for a trip to the hospital. I got him to Peninsula by noon and he sat there for 2 hours waiting to be seen. (They would have taken him in immediately, but the pain this time seemd to be manageable.) I left to run some errands and went back to work, and he called me to pick him up about 3:00, we went to get some pain pills at Longs and came home. Around 6:00 p.m., the pain hit him and for about 3 hours, he was miserable. Then it seemed to calm down and he hasn't had to take a pill since 2 a.m. this morning. At least he went for almost 2 years since the last incident. Never a dull moment....
