Deadpool: Or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying & Eat Hospital Food


For those of you who remember me, its Alex again (i'm picturing a lot of face palming here) - and to the new people I don't know, hi!

I've been away for some time due to medical reasons.. namely my brain (or Brian, as its called now - geddit? *nudges ribs*) disagreeing with the rest of my body and trying to kill me. Twice. But I prevailed! Woohoo!

So i'm back, and not two weeks after I was aloud to walk around and do my own thing & had myself an encounter! Its posted up on the other board, for those of you who are interested.

So anyway - i'm back kids, hope nobody missed me too much

glad ya back man how long was ya down for ?

Oh, well - hospital for about 2 or so weeks - brain operation 'n all. Wasn't a tumor or anything, just an extra bit of brain that disagreed with the rest of me.

After that, about 4/5 months of recovery at home, getting my senses back together (co-ordination & such) - and now i'm prone to epileptic-bloody-seizures. It blows, but its expected after the operation.

I'm on medications now, so i'm good so long as I keep taking them, which I most certainly intend on doing.

Its good to be back cruising around here on the forum, catching up on all the latest news/stories/etc.

Hi Alex! only a newbie here so I don't know you but welcome back after your long hospital stay!
Sounds like something out of a horror movie don't it? "The brain who tried to kill me" !!!
Glad they got it under control

Wish I had an extra bit of brain...*kicks stones* I'm doing the hard yards with the amount I've got.....

Mate a brain operation is a big deal, I'm glad you're doing well. Stay safe.

Thanks!
Newbie? Psh, no such word around here as far as i'm concerned. You'll learn alot of things too. The more you read, the more you'll learn. Easy as that. Just don't try and rush one if you see one. Take photos instead please

Thanks mate, its good to be back. I'll stay safe for sure. I intend to go out alot more now in terms of "bushwalking" too. After a near death experience, I learn't that other stuff is easy to tackle. Well, thats what I think in terms of what I went through. Especially the "fear" you get when you're out there on your own.

Psh! Yowie? I'd rather be chased by two of them than go through that again.

Bloody oath mate. Give me some XXXX, a bbq & some shrimps and i'm set by crikey.

*shudder* - really now, i'd just rather be chased. Way more fun than lying in a bed with about a million wires/tubes hooked up to you.

Hey Deadpool,

Just found this thread: you know what they say: it's hard to keep a good man down.

I hope your recovery has been uneventful, and that you didn't have too hard a time being the man with two brains (well, one and a bit).

Now I've got to find your Yowie story - any chance of a link to it?

Internet best wishes,
Shazz
