A couple of weeks ago he was in the fetal position moaning and groaning and I confess I really thought he probably had gas after the English "fry up" he ate for lunch. It was a kidney stone. He was very pleased to tell us that the ER doctor said the pain is considered worse than childbirth...(My daughter delivered a baby two weeks earlier!!)

And, having done both myself, I actually had to agree with him.
