Bobby's Surgery

He has had several kidney stones in the past.  They are very painful and i know that he was not looking forward to this procedure.  During his last physical they found some blood in his urine.  So upon further tests they found what they thought was a very large kidney stone.  Dr. Futral said that it could be compared to a very large olive.  He anticipated up to a 6 hour surgery to go in dissect it and painfully remove and get all of the little particles.  He was very surprised to find over 100 little stones and was able to remove all of them that had packed themselves in to a finger of his kidney.  He said Bobby would be very sore and would need to stay down for a week with the tube that is still in his kidney.  I was so thankful and relieved that this was the case.  I sure do love that man and am sad he will have to recover from this painful procedure.  But hopefully he will on the the road to full health in a week.  So thankful for the power of prayer.  And for this doctor !!! It took him a full week to recover.  i am very hopeful that water will become his best friend and the memory of this will never leave him.  Let's get committed to health.  Xo
