Kidney Stones and Primary Programs

Well, the election is over! We were so focused on Prop 8 that everything else seemed to take a back seat. We are glad it passed but we know it will be an ongoing battle. In the wee hours of the morning on Tuesday, I woke to Maddie needing to use the bathroom. I realized Lance was not in bed. He had been pacing around the house for an hour in severe pain. It became clear that he needed some help so I quickly dressed, woke up Jason to hold down the fort and drove Lance to the emergency room. I have never seen him in so much pain. He was literally shaking. The good news was the ER waiting room was pretty empty and they were able to help him fairly quickly- still not fast enough. Once the IV and pain meds kicked in he was a whole new person. Thank heavens for modern drugs! They quickly did a CT scan and find the tiny little bugger. I still can't believe something that small could cause so much pain. It still took two days to completely pass but he wasn't in the kind of pain as before. That was a fun experience for us!
Today, our children were in the yearly primary program. Devon, Lexi and Lauren said their parts very well. Our Primary meets with the Spanish Branch's primary and it was great to see and hear all the children sing the chorus of "Called to Serve" and "I am a Child of God" in Spanish. It was a wonderful program.
