The “stones” that most people don’t know about

November is National Lung Cancer Awareness Month
Back in the 1980s I worked at a health insurance company and interestingly one of the things I remember best about that job was my boss (Paul) who smoked cigars nonstop throughout the day.

Back in 1980 when I was starting my first year of college, I got the one and only urinary tract infection (UTI) that I’ve ever had in my life.
