Get Well Soon, Boyet!

boyet dominguez is in makati med.  he's been
having problems with his kidneys.  his left kidney
is swollen and he's got stones somewhere in
there.  tomorrow, his doctor is going to try to
blast them away.
let's pray that the procedure will be successful
and that his kidney will heal.  he expects to be
out on tuesday.

 Benjie,
     Boyet might need our help one way or the
 other.  May I send it through my daughter JV?

at the rate prepians are ending up at makati
med, maybe we should put up
our own hmo. we have enough doctors and finance
people to put one
together. okay, i'm just kidding. hope boyet
turns out okay. just had
blood tests and found out my cholesterol level
is alarming. does anyone
know where i can get xenical? that should be
easier than laying off the
goodies.

 Hi
 
Please extend my good wishes to Boyet. His last
communication to me was
 last Sept 7 via chat. "Bayaran mo ang utang mo"

 My prayers and good thoughts...

I hope Boyet is okay

And I think the rest of you should have medical
check-ups pagdalaw ninyo sa
 hospital!

eq called boyet while we were there and told him
to wait until they take out the catheter.  then,
he'll know what pain really is.  gross!

anyway, boyet was just fine, laughing and kidding
and making plans to play tennis again.

guys, take care ok.  like boo said, too many of us
are finding ourselves in the hospital.  manny
seems to enjoy these visits.  i don't.  see you in
shangri-la instead on the 8th of oct.  those kind
of visits, i like.

benjie
p.s.  raul leopando, bibot fernandez, tong
linsangan:  the three of us were wondering what's
up with you guys.  what's up, or down, or
whatever?
 

 Benjie
 
 that visit made me realize why Ed said
 Ouch!  Let's pray that everything comes out OK
 in the end....literally.
 still ouch!

Its nice to know that you are ok and recuperating. I'm not as religious as
Ray or Manny (?) but my family is praying for your speedy recovery.

We guys and gals are eagerly waiting for your chronicle on this experience.

Coming soon ....

Benjie, pls tell Boyet nothing beats a real thorough oil change and a new filter. Tennis alone won't do it. Ask EQ.

You're probably out of the hospital by now.  Hope you are well on your way to
recovery.   Did you keep your stones for souvenirs?

By the way, I have worked in the hospital before with patients with
catheters, both men and women, and boy oh boy, I know they're not fun ( :

Take care,
Edna
 

Subject: thanks (Stones in my Kidney part !1)
 

Manny,
 

Thanks for being there so I could forget the pain of the catheter.
Benjie too.  EQ call was sure talking from experience when they took out
my catheter is an experience something you can never forget and would
not like to have ever again. Sorry I could only send  a message at this
time since I have been out of bed only Monday.  I checked out of the
hospital Wednesday but the procedure (operation)) did not really get rid
of all the renal stones some are stuck in the walls of my ureter so the
doctor could not blast the stones.  The solution is to dissolve them so
I could pass them out.  So right now I am at a stage where I keep going
to the restroom to piss which is very uncomfortable. Hopefully I will be
back to normal in a week or so.  Thanks to everybody for the letters and
calls. I even got an early call at the hospital from Arlette.  Don't
worry I can still make it to Ray's Birthday Bash.
Manny kindly broadcast this message to all the guys.  The bonus I got is
now I am on a Purine Diet, before I have a diabetic diet so if you
combine the two you are left with nothing to eat.  Its a choice between
the lesser evil diet.
