Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Jack who lived in a small village with his parents. Jack’s parents were good people but quite poor. They lived in a small home with not much money to spare, but Jack was happy and always found things to be thankful for.

One day, Jack started feeling an uncomfortable pain in his belly. His parents took him to the doctor and after some tests, the doctor diagnosed Jack with cystolithiasis. Cystolithiasis is a condition in which a person has too many bladder stones. It’s common among children Jack’s age and can be quite painful.

The doctor prescribed Jack with some medicine to help with the pain and he was to drink lots of water to help flush out the stones. Jack wasn’t feeling any better and the pain was quite unbearable for him.

Days passed, and the pain wasn’t getting better, so Jack’s parents took him to the hospital. After further tests, the doctors concluded that Jack had to have his bladder stones removed surgically. They said he would feel much better after the surgery.

Jack was scared, but he was comforted by his parents who said that everything would be okay. Jack mustered up all his courage and went through with the surgery, and soon enough, he was feeling better. He was so relieved that he could finally go out and play and do all the things he loved doing.

Jack learned a valuable lesson from this experience- he learned that having courage is important in times of trouble. It’s easy to become scared and overwhelmed when faced with something new and unfamiliar, but with courage, we can overcome any obstacle that comes our way.

The moral of this story is that courage is important. When faced with a difficult situation, it’s important to be brave, find strength and hope, and keep pushing forward.
