Mama's Sick... call in the reinforcements!

Wednesday, October 14

I woke up this morning not feeling so hot.  I could tell my side/back was hurting.  I knew my kidney stones were back.  I gave it an hour then decided to go ahead and call the urologist (I know, I'm a 55 year old man) to make an appointment.  Within an hour I was DYING...  I had two little kids to deal with and could barely walk.  I called Rudy crying for him to come home.  While I was waiting, I started throwing up because the pain was unbearable.  Rudy couldn't get here fast enough!  As long as I didn't move a muscle, I was fine.  So, with 2 kids that was so easy... ha!  I called Ana to come in and watch the kids so I could go to the dr.  Sweet Mandy took me to the doctor and did my shopping for me while I was there.  Little did she know what she was in for!  While waiting for my pain prescription I started to get sick all over again in the parking lot!  Lucky her!  Finally made it home and took some medicine.  Our babysitter, Nicole had come over to help out with the kids.  and Mandy took Angelo to her house for a little play time with Mattie so Nicole would only have one kid to deal with.  Then my parents finally came over to help too!  I had all the reinforcements over!  Mama was down and out.. but the vicodin worked wonders!  Thank goodness we have family that lives so close and can help me out in a jam!  I am truly blessed!
