Holy FUCKKK, OUUUUWCH!!! I definitely do not envy you, my man. :shocked: You poor thing. What can doctors DO for someone in your position, if anything? (There's GOT to be *something*?)

I only come here for the groups these days. I think we're all growing old and *gasp* RESPONSIBLE!

Diablolipop passed away on January 15,2011. As you have read in many of his past posts, he was chronically ill. He is deeply missed. This is being posted by his widow Liz. I am sorry, I should have posted this much earlier. He loved this site and the people he has the opportunity to talk to.
Thanks SG!

Tonight is the last supper, tomorrow is a day of fasting, and Friday at 5:30am they are checking me in for surgery. Hopefully I will be out of the hospital in 5 - 10 days.

Yeah, I know smile I was vegan in the past, for a couple years.

What I try to do is if I'm going to buy something pre-made, is I make sure it's certified vegan.

For the most part, I eat pretty much just raw veggies and fruits, and nuts, etc. So I don't have to worry too much with that kind of thing.

I'm also thinking of getting into doing stuff like baking my own vegan loaves of bread and stuff like that.

Thanks for the tip though smile

Good luck with your surgery btw, I hope everything goes well.

I recently heard / read something comparing Sadam Hussin Launching poison gas on defenseless desert nomads and using questionable interrogation measures on human beings that have committed acts of terror upon our troops and unprovoked attacks upon our civilians.

I usually keep my opinion to myself, but if you cant see the difference on something as simple as this... GET IN A FUCKING BOAT AND...

Well I met with the surgeon today. Basically if my Pancreas is producing "enough" insulin they can do this Islet replacement thing. If not then there is no reason to waste $40,000 of my and my Insurance companies money, and they just remove the Pancreas and get me on a donation list.


I appreciate all the kind words / thoughts, my Surgery wont be until...
