acute appendicitis

[RussBLib]

I got out of the hospital on Monday after having an operation to remove my "angry, swollen, and leaking" acute appendix. It's been a very rough three days. Getting much better now.

I made a post on Facebook about it and got a ton of well-wishes, and you know? Not one single one of them said they'd pray for my speedy recovery! Most of them - but not all - know I am an atheist. During the screening process at the hospital, they asked me, "Religion?" I replied, "none" and they didn't bat an eye. Also refused to have a chaplain come and visit me.

Starting to make some posts on my blog about it if you'd like to read. I'm very grateful to be still walking this Earth, however gingerly.

Praise science!
