Caught this in time
13 years ago
The truth may come in clever disguises...
So the mate
had abdominal pains today...her white cell count was high and her color was off. To the Er we go..and 1 C.A.T. scan later...an enlarger appendix appears. So its off to surgery for the kitty tonight~and it could have been so much worse. Remember kids, the most dangerous 5 words on the planet..."maybe it will go away"~yeah right. I'll keep you freaks updated.
UPDATE~like the total boss she is, the Cheetah made it thru with no problems...now time for sleep for the cub and me...thanks for all the love.

Keep us updated.
Also, my mom told me another phrase that shouldn't be said is "This is it"
Which is why MJ passed away
Why is there an extra piece of large intestine?
Now in the age where we cook and process food before it's eaten, the appendix just collects indigestible shit like coins and paper clips if you're stupid/crazy enough to eat them. Pretty useless, and obviously rather susceptible to infection.
"Ma'm, You see this here area where you were complaining about pain? Yeah, that isn't a nectarine you just ate. That's your appendix and it's angry!"
That shit doesn't go away. I held off once...won't say when, but more damage was done that should have. Being the epitome of stubbornness and resilience does not pay off as one might think. Duct tape does not solve everything. Superglue is only good on small cuts, not good for stitches. And when you consume too much alcohol and had been born without a gag reflex because I'm just that gay, consuming coffee and a long stand in a hot shower with the lights off will not make the loud pounding in one's head go away.
That said, I'm grateful that you did your part in being a loved one and got the right services so she can be the happy Askari that we know.
glad you caught it before it got really bad
hope she gets better quick
