I ache! But the doctor prescribed plenty of pain meds.<br /><br />The surgeon said that my left ureter is kinked.

Cab company not liable because cabbies are considered independent contractors: only the cabbie himself is liable, and he had no assets and only minimal automotive insurance.. This kind of situation with cabbies is going on all over the United States!<br />Always On Watchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08192688822955022541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320479736034351430.post-62992386643963926362016-06-22T12:18:25.011-05:002016-06-22T12:18:25.011-05:00Hope all turns out well, AOW.Hope all turns out well, AOW.Ducky's herehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14608115001116619877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320479736034351430.post-80493276700445723812016-06-22T09:05:54.427-05:002016-06-22T09:05:54.427-05:00Prayers for a successful surgery, AOW.
