Friends of Budge, Budge could use some support tonight.
March 29, 2004 | Self

Posted on 03/29/2004 8:01:34 PM PST by Vets_Husband_and_Wife

I've gotten word tonight that our FRiend Budge could REALLY use some support. He is down and could REALLY use a lift.

He is one tough cookie but everyone needs a lift now and then.

Pain is an awful thing. But sometimes it can just wear you down.

We had a pretty good scare recently with Budge. Thankfully it turned out to be Kidney Stones. Taking care of the problem wasn't fun but at least Budge will be ok. But now he has pulled some rib cartilage some how or another and those things combined have just taken a toll.

So if you could all just give him a prayer and some encouragement, it would sure lift his spirits MORE THAN YOU WILL EVER KNOW!!

Thanks and God Bless!!

Budge, I am truly sorry you are still hurting. It is amazing to me that medical science has not been able to come up with better solutions for your problem. You must literally feel like someone ran over you and then backed up and did it again to make sure they caused maximum damage!

I hope you have missed some of the dem/media garbage in the last couple of weeks because it would just add alot of nausea and vomiting to what you are already enduring. I will take on the burden of barfing enough for 2 people as my get well gift to you. I will also continue to keep you in my prayers.

Even though I have not had the pleasure of meeting you, the people on FR that have love you dearly and so hopefully one day I will have the honor myself. RebRaider

If it's in the bladder, he's done with it. Peeing it out is the easy part: moving it from the kidney to the bladder is hell on earth. Hoping he's over it....

Farmer Joe decided his injuries from the accident were serious enough to take the trucking company responsible for the accident to court. In court the trucking company's fancy lawyer was questioning farmer Joe. "Didn't you say, at the scene of the accident, 'I'm fine'?" said the lawyer.

Farmer Joe responded, "Well, I'll tell you what happened. I had just loaded my favorite mule Bessie into the..."

"I didn't ask for any details," the lawyer interrupted, "just answer the question. Did you not say, at the scene of the accident, 'I'm fine!'"

Farmer Joe said, "Well, I had just got Bessie into the trailer and I was driving down the road..."

The lawyer interrupted again and said, "Judge, I am trying to establish the fact that, at the scene of the accident, this man told the Highway Patrolman on the scene that he was just fine. Now several weeks after the accident he is trying to sue my client. I believe he is a fraud. Please tell him to simply anwer the question."

By this time the Judge was fairly interested in Farmer Joe's answer and said to the lawyer, "I'd like to hear what he has to say about his favorite mule Bessie."

Joe thanked the Judge and proceeded, "Well, as I was saying, I had just loaded Bessie, my favorite mule, into the trailer and was driving her down the highway when this huge semi-truck and trailer ran the stop sign and smacked my truck right in the side. I was thrown into one ditch and Bessie was thrown into the other. I was hurting real bad and didn't want to move. However, I could hear ole Bessie moaning and groaning. I knew she was in terrible shape just by her groans. Shortly after the accident a Highway Patrolman came on the scene. He could hear Bessie moaning and groaning so he went over to her. After he looked at her he took out his gun and put her out of her misery. Then the Patrolman came across the road with his gun in his hand and looked at me. He said, 'Your mule was in such bad shape I had to shoot her - how are you feeling?'"

An old man and woman were married for years even though they hated each other. When they had a confrontation, screams and yelling could be heard deep into the night. A constant statement was heard by the neighbors who feared the man the most. "When I die I will dig my way up and out of the grave to come back and haunt you for the rest of your life!"

They believed he practised black magic and was responsible for missing cats and dogs, and strange sounds at all hours. He was feared and enjoyed the respect it garnished.

He died abruptly under strange circumstances and the funeral had a closed casket. After the burial, the wife went straight to the local bar and began to party as if there was no tomorrow.

The gaiety of her actions were becoming extreme while her neighbors approached in a group to ask these questions: Are you not worried? Concerned? Afraid? of this man who practised black magic and stated when he died he would dig his way up and out of the grave to come back and haunt you for the rest of your life?

The wife put down her drink and said..."Let the old ba$tard dig. I had him buried upside down."

Talking to the devil...

One sunday morning, everyone in one bright, beautiful, tiny town got up early and went to the local church. Before the services started, the towns people were sitting in the pews and talking about their lives, their families, etc... Suddenly, Satan appeared at the front of the church. Everyone started screaming and running for the front entrance, trampling each other in a frantic effort to get away from evil incarnate.

Soon everyone was evacuated from the Church, except for one elderly gentleman who sat calmly in his pew, not moving... seemingly oblivious to the fact that God's ultimate enemy was in his presence.

Now this confused Satan a bit, so he walked up to the man and said, "Don't you know who I am?"

The man replied, "Yep, sure do."

Satan asked, "Aren't you afraid of me?"

"Nope, sure ain't," said the man.

Satan was a little perturbed at this and queried, "Why aren't you afraid of me?"

The man calmly replied, "Been married to your sister for over 48 years."

Mystery Solved

It seems that when the good Lord was making the world, he called man aside and bestowed upon him 20 years of normal sex life. Man was horrified, but the Creator refused to budge.

Then the Lord called the monkey and gave him 20 years. "But I don't need 20 years" said the monkey "Ten years is plenty" Man spoke up and said, "May I have the other 10 years?" The monkey agreed.

The Lord called on the lion and also gave him 20 years. The lion too only wanted 10, again Man spoke up, "May I have the other 10 years?" "Of course", said the lion.

Then came the donkey who was also given 20 years. Like the others, 10 years was enough. Man again asked for the spare 10 years and he got them.

This explains why Man has 20 years of normal sex life, 10 years of monkeying around, 10 years of lying about it, and 10 years of making a jackass out of himself.

FOR SURE!

Praying.

Lord, please lead him intimately through this wilderness and pain. Ease the pain to nothing as much as possibly doable. In Jesus' Name.

Continued prayers for you Budge ughhh kidney stones painful. I might offer a little advice- Take your pain medication on schedule i.e if it says take every 4 hours or every six hours, do that, even if the pain has subsided. Don't wait until the pain returns before you take the next dose. It will take longer for the medication to work again.

Here's a couple of jokes. I hope you aren't a lawyer cause these are a little mean.

What's the difference between a skunk laying in the middle of the road and a lawyer laying in the middle of the road?
There are skid marks in front of the skunk.

Osama bin Laden, Saddam Hussein and a lawyer are all in a room. You have a gun, but you only have 2 bullets, What do you do?
Shoot the lawyer twice.

Non lawyer joke

Two guys are drinking in a bar. One guy says to the other "You know this building is built in such a way, that you can actually jump off the roof, but the up draft is so strong, it will blow you right back onto the roof".

The second guy says "No way, that's impossible."
The first man replies "Really, I've jumped hundreds of times and always end up safely back on the roof. C'mon I'll show you.

Both men go up to the top of the building. The first man jumps off and starts to fall, but then suddenly he blows back onto the roof.
"That's amazing" says the second man.
"You can do it too" says the first man, "All you have to do is jump, the updraft catches you".

The first man again jumps off the roof and about 1/2 way down he blows back onto the roof.
"That really is incredible," says the second man.
The first man says "It's easy, now you try it" . But the second man shakes his head saying " I don't know".

The first man again says "Look, it's so simple" and once again the he jumps off and blows back onto the roof.
"See, there's nothing to it, you jump, the wind blows you back up here".
The second man says "OK, you've convinced me" .

He walks to the edge of the roof, jumps, and falls straight down to the ground with a thud. A few moments later, the ambulance arrives.

Wonder Woman suddenly appears on the roof behind the first man, and says to him:
"You know you're really mean when you're drunk Superman"

I am at a loss for words.

Finally talked to the doctor. He told me nothing more than what he said last Monday, that the stone is not in the kidney, he doesn't know where it is.

HE said it MAY be the bladder, but isn't sure. He also said I MAY have passed it.

I asked him that if it is/was as large as it was, wouldn't I have known if I had passed it.

He told me yes, I would, very much so.

Well, I haven't, and he did not set up another appointment. So I guess he's through with me, even though I still have quite a bit of pain!

I can't thank y'all enough for all the prayers! God Bless you all!
