Dang Juan! That sucks. I just hope that you don't shoot that stone out and put out someone's eye.

Enjoy the R&R and take it easy. I have been fortunate not to have a kidney stone but friends who have had them have told me how bad it is. I think one guy told me it hurt worse than being shot. Luckily for you, there is better living through chemistry.

I'll take some Gran Patron Platinum please.

Ouch. I feel the pain from just reading your posts. You're absolutely right abour Percoset. My wife just delivered our baby 5 months ago so I can attest to what it can do to easy your pain

Try to have fun while you can. And God bless you.

Not fun! Wish you all the best with both trip & stones.

I'd be laying on my speakers all the time trying to crush those puppies if I were you.

Heard passing a kidney stone is as close to childbirth a man can get.

Of course, most women would only rate it a 1 on the birth pain scale.

Thanks, Mark.

My wife's best friend has given birth to four children, and has also passed kidney stones. She always says she'd take childbirth over stones any day.

Anyway, I am currently sitting here in the Champagne bar on the "Royal Promenade" on the fifth deck of the ship (one of the several wi-si spots on the ship). I have a double baileys on the rocks, and some smokes. I'll be joining my wife in the casino a bit later; the kids are out doing the kid program activities (they are having a blast!). Life is good!

We are on our way to Antigua after spending one day in St. Thomas and one day in St. Marteen. So far, the stones have cooperated. No pain... at all, for which I am very thankful. Of course, I hope I did not just jinx myself.

The trip is going wonderfully, we're having a great time, and the cruise is just outstanding! No complains at all. I've taken some great pictures, which I'll post when I get back.

Hope all of you had a great and safe 4th of July.

Juan

Sounds good, Juan! Enjoy.

Glad to hear your having fun Juan..

Lite one up for me... And whatever you do, don't watch the first 3 episodes of Deadwood from this past season.. (anyone who watches the show will know what I'm talking about.)

Have a blast, play some shuffle board, water arobics, bingo in the lounge, and make sure to grab some stills at the topless beach. You can tell the CEO they are for me.

Best,
Seth
