Amen! Praise KROMM!

Indeed, I sat here in Canada with Big Snow so Europe could enjoy fine weather. (I was in the ER all day yesterday, so I didn't see the outside or need the sun anyway. Bah!)

ER? As in the TV show? Why?

Details would be "too much information" for some readers. Let's just say that a useful but not vital internal organ was causing me great pain. In the short term, things are fine; in the long term, I'll have to have it hacked out. My ER time was spent waiting for answers to "Why is one of my internal organs hurting so much that I can't move?" and "Do we take it out now or some time from now?" I got answers: "Because it's a freaky shape and getting inflamed," and, "Some time from now." None of that involved going outside to see the snow, which is probably just as well for Europe.

Well, in the name of the HOLY MOTHER THREAD, get better! GURPS needs you.

This is probably your appendix, right?

Nope. More excessive information: it's me gallbladder. The condition is called cholecystitis, for those who just must know.

If we are on the same page of the book O organs I have had this same problem, it caused me nothing but hell in my youth so I hope you feel better Kromm and I will pray for you.

On a sad note my father died on Wednesday and if anyone who reads this will, please pray for me and my family. I haven't slept in days and I feel ready to crack.

Hail Kromm

I'm sorry to hear that Ghostdancer. I'm not much for prayer but I'm very sorry to hear about your father. I will pray for you.

I may just be some more or less anonymous (whats more, new and therefore much less familiar) person on some forum on the internet, but I want to tell you that I am honored you share your loss with me.

I want to say something more and be helpful in whatever way I can but it seems that something like that is too big to approach through words. Big enough that I don't know how to anyways. All I can say is that I wish you my best and am sad for you. Please tell me if there is anything I can do.
