Default Totally OT: Surgery

I've just recently started posting here again after an absence of some months. Hopefully there are still some old faces around who remember me.

It's pretty self indulgent of me to use the forum for this purpose, but here goes anyway....

It's currently Sunday night in Australia. Tomorrow morning I am going into hospital for major surgery on my leg. For anyone who cares, the detail may be found here. The upshot of it is that there's a chance that my lower left leg may be amputated. I don't know how much "a chance" is, but from what I've read I believe it may be around 15 percent, possibly even higher. This is not really what I had in mind for my 25th year on the planet and I'm somewhat frightened.

If anyone out there is religious (I'm atheist) please consider letting your God know that I'm not really a bad guy despite not believing in Him. For some reason it cheers me up to know that there are people (even basically complete strangers) out there wishing me well. Hence this post. But if any moderators want to delete this, I'd totally understand [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
