FFS sjc. Shite news but I suppose good news in that they've managed to delete it.  Do you need your bile duct anyway (other than for that final dry howk after a night out)?

Its all been reconnected in a completely different way to allow my digestive system to function.

Why am I not suprised to read this in a post about you going under the knife? 

You and the family are getting your money's worth out of the local medical services - all the best to you.

Back in late August I had a follow up scan after my acute pancreatitis attack in May. Unfortunately the scan showed I had a small tumour in the head of my pancreas and the scraping test results indicated it to be cancerous. Less than 2 weeks later I was put under the knife to undergo what's called the "whipple procedure" where they  remove part of your stomach, pancreas, intestines and all of your bile duct. Thankfully the operation went well and I was discharged from hospital after 2 weeks, albeit 20kg lighter.
I've been given a tablet form of chemotherapy which I can take at home in 4 weeks on/2 weeks off cycles. I'm coming to the end of the first 4 weeks and the only side effect I'm suffering from so far is a bit of nausea.
Sorry if I've brought the mood down but just wanted to get it off my chest. It's good to talk and all that!

Could be worse, sjc...

Just headed out to pick up  breakfast and pint for a hangover cure. Genuinely thought I'd seen a man die in the pub when he fell off his stool and his mate called an ambulance but he woke up and was served another pint.  can't beat a Tuesday daytime in Leith.

Surprised you didn't need an ambulance. I'd sure as hell have been dying with laughter if I'd witnessed that.

What pub?

 

Don't want to be like Supras and be specific but it's at the bottom of the Walk. It was pretty mental  I've helped people get up off the floor before around here before but this boy looked like he was proper KO'd/deid.

On a serious note, f*ck that for a game of soldiers. Sounds like the life of the seafarer isn't much kop SJC. Good luck with the treatment and hopefully recovery.

Just been to a pub quiz in town. This guy comes over to talk to me. Dodgy looking guy. Asks how my nights going, I ask him about his and he says “yeah not bad. I’m just out. (As in just out of prison.) It’s not bad.”

I didn’t ask him anything about where he’d been, he was making me feel uncomfortable - you know, lurching over me, had a few to drink, talking right in my face. I just wanted him to go away tbh. Then he says “ah killed ma wife.”

[emoji15]

Oh right, I reply.

“Aye she was cheating on me, so I killed her. People ask why I didn’t kill him instead of her.”

Because he didn’t know she was someone’s wife?

“Exactly! See, you get me.”

Well, I...

“You’d do the same as me.”

I don’t think I would man, no.

So, this bizarre conversation ends and he goes to bother my mate. I’d just met a real life murderer. Fucking mental.

Later he asks us who we support and it turns out he’s a Rangers fan. The pub quiz had a jackpot prize at the end - guess the four number combination of the safe...he honestly suggested we go with 1690.
