I’ve just given birth! I’m gong to name it “Jocke”

What a blessed day, I’m now a father. It’s.. it’s a little emotional for me...

My Divererticlitis was feeling better, but I also have chronic prostitus, and when I’m sick, it flares up horribly sometimes. Yesterday, I was in tremendous pain. I was in the Urologist office a few minutes ago and he said “let’s make sure it’s not a kidney stone” (I’ve had four). So, he sends me over to x Ray. Half way there, I went in to the men’s room and... SUPRISE! Number five. Leave it to me to have TWO maladies at the same time. But I feel tons better, even my belly feels better, so, I’m on the mend

Jocke, I am naming him after you... I promise I will raise him for you to be proud.

Tune in for next week’s show of “Paul’s Physical Problems”

Have you ever seen a man so HAPPY that he passed a kidney stone?

Did they use depleted uranium in your M61A1?

As far as I know, the DU rounds are only available in 30Mil (?). My GAU was a 20MM.

Speaking of which, I feel like I just passed a depleted uranium round.

Glad you're better.

Glad you're on the mend, Paul.

All these ailments must be a 'Paul Thing'. I still have a few of those whacky-ass pain killers left over if you need any

Sometimes a picture tells more than thousands words but this one leave the most to imagination. I'm proud to be a part of

Good you found the problem.

Any day you manage to pass a kidney stone is a very good day indeed.
Well Done Paul.

Yikes! A kidney stone and diverticulitis at the same time. Add an open femur fracture, and you've got the trifecta of pain. Hope you feel better quickly. I'm going to rent out your room at Casa Chitwood if you don't show up soon.
