I study a lot of things, But Medicine and Biology, I just never had the interest, I know less about Medicine and Biology than most people. MY uncle has been sick really sick for a long time, He just found out he has to have emergency surgery.

I need to ask you guys, Is this something I should be very worried about? I think people can live without a spleen, all I know is he has it, And they are sending him for surgery. Should I be worried?

So, Today I got a call from my Dad, My uncle hasn't had the surgery yet and he's doing even worse than he was..

It's been a harsh couple of years for losing people.. Can't there ever just be good news.

So they did the surgery, and they had to take his entire spleen and half his pancreas, I don't know how bad this truly is, but I know it's not good.

Sorry to hear about your uncle, SP. I'm not a doctor either but I know that the pancreas is very important so it doesn't sound good.

Yeah, sometimes I'm able to rationalize and process things. My uncle David, he was one of the good ones, He was always there. It's gonna hurt this time.
