Just shooting the poop with Lori |
| Spent the last 5 days with my daughter and her kidney stones. Poor girl was 4 hours from home for an internship for dance, all alone in a strange city without any family around. She had to take herself to the ED only to find out that the stone causing the pain had lodged itself in the ureter. With 2 days of trying to pass it, surgery and stent placement was necessary. There was lots of pain and nausea along the way but I'm glad to report that she is on the mend. It is so hard to see your child in pain. This was her first encounter with hospitals so I count myself blessed that my kids are healthy. The one thing that I had to educate her on and have had to teach people as a nurse, is that when they give you a pain pill....it does not start working as soon as it passes your lips. There is a time factor involved. So breath deep, hang on, and relax to the best of your ability. I think this experience has prepared her for kids in the future. Mama is just glad she is feeling better. |
