I hate kidney stones! Here are three of the more recent beauties I gave birth to. There is still one more stone resting in my left kidney. Is there a kidney stone haters club on the World Wide Web? I want to join!

The one on the right is 5mm long.

This one had to be fished out.
Hey you stone makers.
Let's get together and do something with them. Those of you who have a large
collection, get them out and look them over. Do you have any that look like
celebrities or
familiar objects? E-mail me pictures of them and I might post them here. What
about those of you that make big stones. You might can make jewelry out of them.
E-mail me your kidney stone stories. The wonderful pain, the thoughts that go through your mind while in pain, how time moves too slow. How your spouses react when you have a stone that won't move. If you've been there, let's hear about it.
Oh, yea. you would not believe how much it costs to get one of those things out. My co-pay after insurance is probably what I would pay if I didn't have insurance. What a racket!
