Kidney Stones!

So, currently I'm home from church with kidney stones! I never expected this and didn't realize how painful such a thing was! I sucessfully dehydrated myself on Friday and late that night started vomiting and then having serious pain in my left side. That went on for a few hours before I decided to go to the ER and Scott loaded the kids in the car at 3:30am and we were off! I was given something right away that took away the pain and nausea and went home after just a few hours. But, I was surprised how much pain I was in all day yesterday and it's still moderate pain today. But, I think I'm on the mend and Scott has successfully balanced carting me to and from the hospital, taking care of three kids, preparing to preach three sermons today and watching FSU lose yesterday. He's quite a man!

Oh, Rebecca! You poor thing. I've heard that kidney stones are horrible and I'm very sorry to hear that you developed them. I'll be praying for a quick recovery. Let's try to talk by phone when you're back to normal.

Rebecca, I was so sad to read about how sick you are! Sniff, sniff. I'm sure all in your family are realizing afresh all you do for them. Resist the temptation to jump back in and REST!!

Rebecca, sorry to hear about the kidney stones. My brother-in-law had them and they were horrible. Hope you are feeling better.
