But if everyone doesn't mind, I'd love it if you'd root for my friend who is in the hospital right now. Burst appendix -> allergic reaction to anesthetic -> blood clot in lung -> infection at appendix removal site. His chances aren't good right now, and he's the one person in the world who truly dwarfs me in size. The man is unbelievably tall. I really want him to make it. I don't even know how in the world this will help, but... I don't want him to die. I really don't... If you believe in a god, pray. I don't, and I'm still trying. Sigh... Edit: His name is Teddy. He's a huge Black guy, about two years older than me (this puts him at a little over 21). He looks like he could play football and just literally leap the members of the other team.
That is tough luck about his allergies. I hope everything goes well with your friend, and his recovery is without complication and speedy.
That's heavy, will have him in my prayers for a speedy recovery, sounds like a healthy lad before all the problems so I'm guessing he's a fighter and he'll pull through
Thanks guys... I'll get an update today. It really sucks because I'm sick so I can't even visit him at the hospital... if he doesn't make it, I'm never gonna see him alive again. Definitely a fighter...
Good luck to your friend. I hope everything turns out well. I can't really pray for him, but maybe wishful thinking will be just as good.
