Just wait for someone else to make a funny comment and then like that, Branko.

 

Your attempts to be funny yourself are as bad as my penalties xx

You were calling for Howe out after Gordon’s miss iirc.

 

Not true and also not really a great response to that post even if it was? :lol:

That place you and Shak were at yesterday should be earmarked for next time. Looked quality.

 

There must have been 12 people playing around the world on a single dartboard at one point. :lol:

Bit of a late bump, but I kinda went AWOL from the Internet a few days before this was happening and didn't inform anyone why that was. So this felt like the most relevant thread to post an explanation in. 

 

In short, I was informed that a tumor had been found in my brain (not cancerous), which given it's position apparently was the reason for why I've had a few years of absolute shit health as it's been fucking up the natural release of cortisol in my body, making my cortisol levels be dangerously high. If untreated, it would always be a terminal diagnosis. But in 8 out of 10 cases, it's treatable - with the 2 out of 10 cases that aren't treatable being cases where it was discovered "too late". Not "too late" with regards to theoretically being treatable, but "too late" for the doctor's to do everything they need to do to prepare for essentially amputating the part of the brain where the tumor is to avoid it fucking up the release of cortisol - meaning the "terminal" part of it being untreated just was too damned close for 2 out of 10 people after it was discovered.

 

As they looked through my medical journal, that became their main fear as incident after incident kept popping up in my journal, going back several years, that were most likely caused by the tumor - meaning the clock was ticking.

 

So, I went AWOL from the online world and the offline world as I ended up thrown into an existential crisis and started "sorting out my affairs" in case everything would end badly. However, earlier today they did this:

Which also means today is the first day in what feels like ages that I had any form of motivation to actually plan ahead in life again and not drown myself in work I felt I had to sort out in case I were to drop dead without warning. Means I have to take cortisol pills every day for the rest of my life to replace the cortisol the "thing" (I don't remember the name 😅) affected by the tumor originally had the responsibility of releasing. But I mean, certain death at a random point in time, or taking a pill once a day? Feels like a fair trade-off by removing that "thing" :lol: 

 

Either way, I know I might have let a few people down with my AWOL-ness out of the blue. But at least those I might have let down now know why it happened 🙏🏼
