Four kidney stones in two years,
so I'm asking docs and peers.
Hydrate is what is touted,
so water? no people flouted.
Just drink lots of beers!*
This is solely for entertainment* If you do have kidney stones, please consult your doctor. Staying well hydrated with water is important for everyone, especially those who are stone formers. --- Christine
@postman29 Sorry to hear you had stones too. I bet you never thought it would be material for a limerick! We are gather enough poems to publish a book. "AARPs How To Craft A Limerick: You can too" 😄 --- Christine
Christine, sorry to hear you had 4! Ouch! I've been lucky so far. One was enough for me. I gained even more respect for women who go through labor after doc told me a kidney stone is almost as bad. Yikes! We men are so spoiled! On a serious note I wish you and your husband a very happy 1st Anniversary (saw that in one of your posts yesterday). Many more happy years ahead. Steve
@postman29 Having birthed two babies and had kidney stones. Stones more painful, especially for guys and their hhhmmm plumbing. 😄 So now when women are telling their "labor" stories, you can say, feel your pain!
Thank you for your anniversary wishes. --- Christine
@Travis55Chevy Thank you for limerick! It's important to follow the AA BB A rhyming scheme when doing a traditional limerick. I'm going to use yours for some inspiration and a framework:
At dentist office with a sack,
said I have a pain in my back.
He opened the bag,
and started to gag.
Was filled with dental plaque!
You've got the writing skills Gary. Look forward to another Limerick. --- Christine
