Joey and Shari, thanks for the well-wishes.  I am prone to kidney stones.  I try to stay very well hydrated, but in the Summer, I seem to get them a little more often.  They are usually small enough to pass on their own.  I last had lithotripsy back in 1992.  Since then, I try to drink as much water as possible so if and when I do get them they are small enough to pass on their own.  Good thing I love to drink water.&lt;img alt=&quot;alt text&quot; src=&quot;http://www.worldofwaterdewdrop.com/glass.jpg&quot; /&gt;<br />
Have a great Sunday, crazies&#33;
