He has a kidney stone. Now his system is diluted with Dilaudin and he is duly delusional (and probably sound asleep). Feel free to send him well wishes and crafty remarks at will.

I have had at least 8 bouts with kidney stones. The pain is so bad that I have (as my brother Buckwheat says) "cried like a big ugly girl". They have a proceedure called Lithotripsy where they can zap the stones before they cause all that pain. Enjoy the dilaudid while you can and tell them to wake you up when the stone passes and its time to go home. | |

My wife and I were happy for 30 years. Then we met each other. | Awww, Tater, you beat me to the mention of Lithotripsy (do you ever sleep?). I was going to recommend it. I mean, how often do you get to have something EXPLODE* inside of you, and it's a GOOD thing??!? That's gotta be an "interesting life experience" to say the least.
Feel better soon, Tony!!
* = OK, well more like "pop" I suppose, but still. | |

You are what you is! | Speaking of jewelry, the last lithotripsy I had, resulted in me having a nice approx. 1/2 carat, kidney shaped, stone, in fine beer bottle earth tones that I plan on mounting onto a ring. | |

In all seriousness - I have had family from Dad to Uncle, cousin and sister who have all dealt with them in some way... including my brother from a different mother Tater.... but so far I have been lucky ... don't want them...
Hang in there "King of the Camera"

They couldn't do the lithotripsy on mine though - not fun! Anyway -- keep the fluids going and good luck! | |

I don't know if I passed it, because I never saw it, but I don't have any more pain. I don't know what I would have done without Susan that night. This was my fourth go around and it was definitely the most painful. Thanks again for all the well wishes. See y'all at Kingsport and again at WebbFest '08. | |
