I think you guys shouldn't remove your posts guys as it is very interesting.
Today there is not enough RESPECT as indicated in your posts. We hear all the time of some oldie/kiddie/homeless/pet being maimed/stabed/shot/attacked etc. VERY SAD INDEED.

That is scarey. My grandson suffered so much illness till he was 4 when they would perform the Op due to risk of death.

No,no,no no, all posts submitted to a thread IMO have a certain mystical way of creating a cohesiveness or cement between the poster and the readers. Some threads on other forums are so strictly regulated to topic acuity they take on a creepy monotone much like one of my old college professors hearing his voice was like overdosing on diazepam and made you think about self lobotomy
On a lighter note after listening to him in a 3 hour lecture the prospect of having that tonsil guillotine shoved in your mouth might not have sounded like such a bad idea I could have skipped at least 1 or 2 of his lectern

I, for one, agree.

knowledge and art and music — the knowledge of the music of words, the art of being
artless, and the magic of loving your readers." Kahlil Gibran



"I would want people to take away this idea that sometimes people's problems or neuroses are really the things that are kind of a blessing in disguise, and even though there's sometimes pain associated with these things that sometimes in the face of adversity with obstacles to overcome, people can really kind of soar and find their higher selves." ~ Tony Shalhoub
