I'm having craniotomy to remove my brain tumor in exactly one week. They are going to drill a hole into my skull and stick their tools into my brain then screw titanium plating over the hole left.I'm having a drink and a cigar tonight, all this is just a bit much. They told me 3% chance of a disaster, disaster being either death, stroke (leading to loss of control over half my body) or total aphasia (incapacity to understand language).I want some sex or something. I don't know what I'm supposed to feel or do when I might be looking at the end. Doesn't feel right to just be sitting here playing video games or browsing 4chan. What was the point of this life if I die at 28 without ever having done anything. Anyway, enjoy your health.
>>83898204Make sure your surgeon is a minority
>>83898204>They are going to drill a hole into my skullActually they might drill several, then remove a piece of your cranium in order to have better access
>>83898233awesome. I might end up with one of these fucking things
>>83898285Can't you ask for one of them NiggerLink's currently under development to be installed? I'd imagine nothing beats streaming 8K porn directly into your brain
>>83898204a doctor giving you the odds of something happening can't possible mean anything. you and i don't know how to do brain surgery. they could say any number and if shit happens they can plausibly deny the inaccuracy of any estimate because 3 is not 0. probability is a concept i always hated. predicting the future is, for one thing, physically impossible. for another thing, people can say whatever the fuck they want.i've been through multiple health scares and the doctor giving out a number always irked me. it's always going to be a coin toss. the probability of ANYTHING happening is 50/50. probability seems satanic to me.
>>83898364you mean, either it happens or doesn't right? I think they say the number based on statistical analysis, I'm young and otherwise healthy, if you filter for such patients one out of 33 will have a complication, it's less probability (I doubt they can do probabilistic math on a situations like this) and just looking at how often complications happen on a large scale and then relaying that statistic>people can say whatever the fuck they want.if so he'd just say 0 chance something goes wrong I got you bro.
>>83898204I highly doubt you're being honest rn
>>83898436what do you mean? Do you think I'm fabricating this or something? What do I stand to gain?
>>83898204Dying during surgery is unironically a great way to go. You'll never even know you're gone. The possibility of a stroke or brain damage is much more concerning.
