Today I had a tube placed into my heart with an input and output valve exposed at my chest. I was a lot scared about it before I went into the surgery as it was done while I was awake but I didn't feel a thing. Medical drugs do wonders, although now I am part machine... we have the technology to rebuild this man......
I'm gonna take some photos and probably post on my flickr as I want to document my disease over the next few months........ although I may post some here. |

Jesus Christ... I hope all goes well for you.
What is being treated, if you don't mind the question? |

I think everyone should be fitted with a Harkonnen heart plug.
What disease do you have? |

Very kind of your brother. I don't know that I'd give one of my kidneys up to a sibling. A parent, in an instant. But a sibling, I'd let one of my other siblings step up first.
