> be me > 8 year old nephew starts pissing small amounts of blood periodically  > sister takes him to doctor and they take samples, turns out he's pissing a little sediment and tell her to make him drink water > because it's perfectly normal for 8 year olds to develop fucking kidney stones if they aren't getting 4 liters a day > sister gets him pounding water while they're in the eternal waitlist > still periodically pissing blood with some back pain > finally get him into an mri > they don't find anything > doctors just say "durrrr drink water" and have zero interest in finding out why an 8 year old is pissing gravel, a pathology you should only be seeing in 40+ year olds. any time anybody tells me about how great the canadian system is, i want to kill them with a rock. sure you go into crippling debt if you get sick in america. here i get to pay my entire fucking life to have some fucktard who got a degree out of cereal box give my family helpful advice like "drink water"
