Damn, that's great! I'm sure everyone here has lost loved ones to cancer, so it's nice to hear when someone tells the big C to get ****ed.
What kind of impairment, if any, will you have as a result of losing that stuff? |

Congratulations! Just curious, what they use to replace your esophagus? Gortex?

See, a REAL car guy would have had them use heater hose, or some fuel line for a replacement esophagus!
