Figure I should provide a quick update…

As of Sunday evening things have just about worked themselves out, as I’m on my feet again and only dealing with some soreness in my lower back. See, what the websites don’t tell you about kidney stones is the havoc the rest of your body endures during the process as the kidneys are forced to fight on several fronts.

At any rate I’m happy to report that my darling wife followed through quite nicely on the “in sickness” part of her wedding vows in taking care of me through the entire ordeal. What she couldn’t do, the staff at Hiroo General did even with a considerable language gap to help nurse me back to health so that by Friday I was back to work just long enough to check in and prepare for the next week.
