Just got a phone call from the doc. He says my stone is borderline iffy. The problem is that it is just the right size to maybe create a problem. When he tries to disintegrate it and it starts moving it might get hung up in that part of the bowel that he used to re-pipe me. Then I would have to be transported to Cooper Hospital in Camden and they would go in through my back to get the pieces of stone out. So tomorrow he will take another x-ray and if it's not to big he will continue with the procedure. Otherwise he will put it off until we can make arrangements with Cooper which might be a better thing with my heart condition considered. I won't know what's happening till about 1:30 tomorrow afternoon.

Jack we are hanging in with you, let us know. Our prayers go out to you. I think your Dr. has a handle on things and will take the best route. I dislike hold ups but bear with it. Let us know tomorrow.
