    One of our brothers is in the hospital this morning.
    Randy (Von Rigg Fink) is in the hosiptal this morning with back to back kidney stones and galblader stones, Randy started going in to shock this morning after about six hours of trying to "Man" his way through the pain (read Hard Head) if you've ever had either one, you know how painful this can be. So, If you could or would say a little prayer to help our brother through these tough times.
    Thanks in advance
    Gary

    Hey guys , thanks a ton for the thoughts and prayers..and Gary for talking with me while waiting for treatment

    was a rough few days but this morninng at 2 am i was woke up with nausiating pain..I been thru this before at least 6 times so I thought I could tuff it out like I had so many times before..But luck would have it that I was trying to p*** the biggest one I ever have had to deal with ..over 4.5 mm and stuck in the tube between kidney and bladder..than my galbladder decided it didnt want to be left out of the fun so it got in tha act too..thats when my body said .."stop trying to be a bad ***" and get into the hospital. shock started setting in, and the game of wills was over!
    thank god it was a short drive.
    Im all doped up and back home..hope to shoot this ****er out before the pain meds wear off..:eek:

    this getting old ****s!

    also thanks to my bride for being so supportive and understanding..
    guess its time to take better care of this antique

    Thanks for the triple reply bro, looks like the meds are working :eek:

    See people, I told ya he was a "Hard Head", Just got a PM from this stuborn fool wanting to go out and "work on the hot rod".
    Now pray tell, my wife would be looking at me stupid right now going "Who does that sound like" ( pissy voice),
    Glad you're back home bro, get some rest and drink plenty of water (code word for beer) and maybe just set back and look at it for awhile.
    Let me/us know if you'd be needin' sumpting.

    Man, those are tough. I spent all day delirious once trying to "man up" and take the pain. Never again.....gimme drugs! They don't let up on the pain, wishing you a quick recovery.

    VRF, I have had both myself (though not at the same time) and the pain (oh the pain) was about as much fun as slamming my **** in a car door. Easy does it. Try to save the biggest kidney stone and mount it for a good luck charm.

  28. Randy, hope you get through this fast..never had kidney stones myself but have friends/family that have and they sound like NO fun. keeping ya in our thoughts. Jeff
