Prayer for the Wife

Wife has been having some health issues. Spent a week in the hospital in September.
Past a stone a week later at home.
Since she has been to all sorts of doctors.
Yesterday they put a stint in her right kidney. The stint goes from her kidney to her bladder.
It is there to drain the kidney because of a blockage.
Well the doctor showed us the pictures. There was a good sized stone blocking the out tube on her kidney.
Now the stone is gone.
The stint has to stay in for up to a month to make sure there are no more blockages.
At 53 she is to young to have these problems.

First thing she says is, "I have to go pee!" They wouldn't let her go pee until the anesthesia wore off.
Then she says, "Where is my machete. I want to kill everyone here!" [:0]
She has been watching to much, The Walking Dead.
At 9:15 they let her go to the bathroom and get dressed.
We were home by 9:30.
She has been up and about today. Little uncomfortable with the stint inside her.
The doctor said she will get used to it. Needs to be in for a few weeks.
I hope it isn't as painful taking out as putting it in.
No incisions were made, they go in through the urethra [:0][:(][:(][:(][:0]
It will come out the same way[:(][:(][:(]
She has 3 prescriptions, one antibiotic, one pain and one for urinary pain.
Nurse told us do not be surprised if your pee turns bright orange[:0] The urinary pain med will do that.
This afternoon we even went over to the doctor's office so she could get a "Return to Work"
letter from the doctor.
She wants to go back to work tomorrow. They said 48 hours, so she sat on the couch yesterday after noon,
figuring that the 48 hours is up at 9:30AM on Friday (tomorrow).
Doctors office gave her the okay to return to work tomorrow afternoon.
She is a trooper. I worry about her though.
I thank all of you for the prayers.
W.D.
