Stones!

Jack began suffering from a kidney stone last Sunday, and all week long he's been in and out of agony. We went to the ER, and it showed a 3mm. stone. Small, but not so small it doesn't hurt. Luckily, he has a stash of Percocets.

But weirdly enough, I also had a stone start bouncing around in my left kidney! Bugger all. I don't get the intense pain that he does, but it is annoying. And I don't have Percorcets.

Brother Ed is here for his Cape May Raptor week, and his friend Martin will be joining us. We all went over to see Eliana, and she squealed with delight to see us. I got some picture of Ed holding her, and we sent them to Gerry. She didn't quite believe it.

Ed didn't look well. He moves slowly, and his left hand trembles uncontrollable. He admitted that he suffered a stroke a few years ago, and the tremble is Parkinson's syndrome, not disease. He says it is what it is, and won't get worse. I'm just really concerned about him.

A little more progress on the novel. I have to get moving on it.
