[Mr Ferret 75]

He decided against running the smoker tomorrow and said he wanted chili tomorrow. So traditional He goes to the hardware store to get wood chips and instead gets what he needs to fix my screen door I had already picked out a new door but he's insisting on fixing the old one. So instead of bacon I'm getting noise tomorrow afternoon His bunny is getting hidden in someplace he'd never look

Its in the washing machine then

Mrs Ferret is looking forward to mooching at the new Sephora "Disney" range next time we get to the world.
And @Cesar R M she says I am more Killian Jones than Joker

If that's the case, I'm going to start calling you Captain Guyliner...

In her head or out loud?

Both

I'm not positive about this, but, I think that beer contains ingredients that cause one to expel liquids instead of retaining them. The more liquids in, the more liquids out therefore creating a better path to get the stones out.

Spoiler: OR

He just wanted to get him drunk enough so he didn't feel any of the pain.

Spoiler: OR

Perhaps, he owns stock in Coor's and wants to retire soon.

Thanks for the explanation, when you have someone in so much pain, you just want to get to the pharmacy fast!

 

[betty rose]

How's he doing? Did you end up taking him in?

He thinks he has passed the last of the stone, but you are never sure until you get a clear x-ray. That comes Wednesday. But with a horrible ice storm coming in he needs to reschedule for Monday or Tuesday, We are not sure this is possible but are hoping.

I am over 400 (in Ferret years )

Wow, ferrets age a lot faster than dogs.

 

[betty rose]

Looks like you've been practicing...!!!

Except, the Thames (Temz) runs through London, "Engaland"...!

You are right, it's the Seine, in France. Wow my history knowledge is slipping.

 

[betty rose]

Yes, indeed.
I remember a flight of ours being cancelled many years ago because of a dent in the nose of the plane. That can, potentially, be serious stuff at 500+ mph at altitude.
I've read about and watched programs about the first De Havilland Comet (first pressurized jetliners) air disasters happening way back when. Metal fatigue due to something as "simple" as the square shaped windows, that were later modified. Can't be too careful about that stuff.
Don't see too many "jetliners" flying around with dings on 'em...

The plane that we were to take out had been hit by a bunch of geese, and had to be grounded.

 

[betty rose]

Oh no!! That sounds miserable! How are the streets? Will you be able to get to a hospital if you need to?

We got sun and the snow, along with our huge snowplow's got rid of the snow. It's the driveway that is the problem. I got it shoveled. Just in case.

 

[betty rose]

Was not aware that was an option.

Light side.

I prefer the dark side.

I'm off to bed. LONG day. My MIL's birthday today, and we helped out serving for her party. On the upside, I'm SO glad I had the injection in my hip last week...without it, I wouldn't be able to move now. My hip would have been pretty well shot by the end of a day like today. But I have only a slight twinge and even that is less pain than I've had after a day like today since before my kids were born!
And there was some fun entertainment....DH's aunt kept bragging about how she had tried to sell her 45 year old ironing board on a Dutch site kind of like ebay and that someone had offered 5 euros for it, but she thought that was too little, and how she bought a 2nd hand umbrella for only 1.25!! So funny!

I'm so glad you are getting much needed pain relief. Constant pain tends to wear on you.

This is one of the things I got from the Disney Store in Tokyo

I want to sit right here before the end. So pretty.

I googled it quick, it looks like beer like cranberry juice dilates the tubing so the stone can move out and prevent build up.

With diabetes. He can't have juice. He did that in the past, but it wasn't effective, for his stones. There are many kinds of stones, some are smooth and some (like his are jagged). They pretty much tear up the ureter on the way out. That causes all the side effects. And soreness for a few weeks later.

reminds me of that adorable picture row of a cat that was adopted, and was put with a bunch of ferret pets. She ended thinking she was a ferret too. So cute!

That is so wonderful seeing different animals taking in those less fortunate. If we could only learn from them.

I thought you had mentioned something about diabetes and I figured the Dr. recommended beer over the juice because of sugar. Beer (at least some) tends to have less carbs than juices, and the alcohol can lower blood sugar too. I hope the stone is clear. I have a couple of friends who get kidney stones often and it doesn't sound like it is pain free. In fact one of them told me they would rather go through childbirth than have a stone.
