A bad case of loving you

Very few people "drop dead" from stuff that is quick and painless. You may remember from the other board that one of our mutual imaginary friends was in even better shape than you, but had a heart thing that she (or "he")** had to have surgically fixed. I imagine that if she didn't get it taken care of, at a minimum her quality of life would have gone down. And maybe if she were born 100 years ago and this sort of surgical repair was not possible, she would die from it.

I imagine many of us know someone who died from something that could have been prevented. Most of these ways of dying aren't all that fun.***

* Uh, is this proper hyphenation, dtb?
**I really dislike the (alleged) word "em."
***Yes, Nelson Rockefeller's death was fun, and I suppose it was preventable (he could have not banged his hot secretary on that day), but the rich are different, and get special privileges. I knew Nelson Rockefeller. Nelson was a friend of mine. You, sir, are no Nelson Rockefeller.
Bob... did you read anything I wrote? I had an battery of cardiac tests a few years back and at the conclusion of all of them, the docs said I was fine. So I guess we can rule out heart issues. Your funny bit about Nelson, my friend, is misplaced.

Yeh, I'd be willing to bet my liver enzymes are off the chart depending on what time of year it is. I don't need that info. What am I going to do about it? Stop going out? Deprive myself of a social life, which is effectively my entire life? I'd rather dance with the cirrhosis faery.

I've coughed up some really impressive shit over the years and been told several times to take antibiotics by docs. I threw them all away because they come with the "You can't drink on these" caveat, and I can't miss a weekend get-together. All the alleged lung infections and sinus infections went a away in good time with rest, fluids and vitamins. Years later I read about just how bad for you antibiotics are...

I party with a few docs. They treat themselves like shit and indulge in some really bad shit. One doctor in my family who lives on heavy fuel told me "You'd be utterly amazed what the human body can endure."
