twenty five years ago after he'd removed half my stomach and part of my intestines, "I did you a favor. I snipped your vagus nerve as long as we were in there, now you won't have to deal with stomach acid anymore. You're welcome." I never had an acid problem to begin with. At the time I had no clue what that was going to do to the rest of my life, if I had I probably would have punched him. I don't need more damage so I guess I'm still staying home.
