Sorry, no pics.....but I don't think you'd want to see any with this story anyway!
I've been having issues with my right kidney off and on for a few weeks now...so here's a little update:
Saturday before Mother's Day I was having a good day (i.e. I could hardly feel any pain at all)!
We planted our garden, my parents came up, it was a fun day! About 9:00 p.m. it hit.....the pain came on hard and fast.....I thought I was going to die for the next 3 hours....which involved excruciating pain, throwing up from the pain, a priesthood blessing, Daniel massaging my kidney area and then finally some relief! There is always and episode similar to this while passing a kidney stone! Not fun! :( However what happened next had never happened before....my body kinda went into shock and I started shaking uncontrollably, this lasted for a while and then I was finally able to sleep! In the morning I had a fever, a pounding headache, felt weak, pulse racing, I could barely lift my head off my pillow, etc...HAPPY MOTHERS DAY TO ME.........HA HA! I felt like this for the next day and Daniel drove me down to St. George where I could get some help from my mom and my grandma! Yea!!! I felt the same on tuesday so I went to see a doctor who told me I looked like "death warmed over"......which is also how I felt! It turns out the kidney stones and infection had lowered my immune system and I had also caught the flu! Well, it is Thursday now and I am starting to feel better! Still got a ways to go, but I am grateful for the improvement thus far! I am also so thankful to my wonderful mother and grandmother who have taken such good care of me and my family! Love you guys! :) Also thanks to those who have called to check on me! You guys are so sweet!
