Lithotripsy

Today I made the trip to Grand Forks for a procedure called Shock Wave Lithotripsy to break up a rather large kidney stone.  So, here is what I have to be thankful for....

• My wife, who did the driving down and back through plenty of wind and drifting.
• My Daughter's car which we took because mine is in the shop for repair.
• That all went well and they only had to poke me twice to get my IV in.
• For all those Doctors and Nurses, etc that worked with me.
• For kids left at home that held down the fort.
• For a spell checker that keeps finding all my mistakes as I type this :)
