This was amazing to read: This was amazing to read because I am in the same situation. An internal spinal injury in November 2019 caused the original problem. I used to dread the monthly exchange to such an extent that I actually have an anti-anxiety pill to take for each appointment, but the last several times have been much easier because of desensitization. Hopefully the consultation I have next month will result in a supra-pubic placement (which will require a bit of surgery) but will remove the physical and psychological discomfort of having that tube where it presently is. Because my kidneys create a good deal of sediment, my catheter has clogged several times---which is a pain I cannot find sufficient words to describe. It has required visits to the ER, but now we have the means to flush the catheter which, if successful (which is not always), avoids the ER visit.

Now these are some mighty: Now these are some mighty fine haiku. Although I do not normally care for those that break the 5/7/5 count, these are certainly an excellent exception to that preference . . . especially the haiku about the blue earth's tilt: that one is stunningly, and exquisitely, perfect.
Thank you for those words. I: Thank you for those words. I am struggling to organize my day around these verses. It is difficult to acquire the habit, but I hope to keep pressing onward.
So that's why I've never had: So that's why I've never had the pleasure of tasting it. A charming metaphor that has me completely sold on this rare fruit.
