Guest guest Posted October 29, 2004 Report Share Posted October 29, 2004 While I was under the knife of a brilliant surgeon, an acquaintece of mine died of liver failure. She had been told 7 years ago that if she did not stop drinking, she would be dead in 5 years. She didn't miss a drop or believe the doctor. I was never told to stop drinking until I was laid out flat in the hospital with a doosey of an accute attack. My body had produced a stone which blocked the duct which made a cyst which caused CP. The pain was horrible as you guys know. I am a good candidate for aversion therapy and quit drinking. I don't know if I would have without the pain. I doubt it. I am glad my body saw fit to slap the crap out of me and wake me up. I miss my beer. I miss having a normal meal. I am grateful to be alive.
