Your dad told me that if you need a kidney, you can have one of Ben's. You can have one of mine if Ben decides to be a pussy about it, but mine have girl-cooties. Then again, Ben's probably do too.
Gee. I don't often think of my being lucky to have both parents living. I'll be glad to see them tonight. Hey I'm landing in -akland, I will give a thought to you -gg-d and good wishes for your surgery to be successful and free of complications.
Thinking of you, Ogged. My wife had breast cancer 20 years ago and is going strong. Her mother had colon cancer 10 years before that and is still pretty spry (they shared the "family oncologist"!) We'll send you every good vibe we can.
I probably don't need to tell you, but if it's not a complete hassle, do seek a second opinion. I had a spell with cancer during college, and while there wasn't any debate about my prognosis or treatment, my second consulation gave me a better understanding of the followup stages (and good advice, too).
I am! I was actually on the phone with the doc's office when I was spamming the thread. Ugh, I dread this but Ogged's got me spooked. (Plus, I've already survived the abdominal ultrasound - ladies, it's your worst nightmare.)
My God. So sorry, ogged. I'm sure it will turn out right, and my best wishes are with you.
And, in typical ogged fashion, you (and now 'Smasher and bill) have made me feel bad about myself for any and all bitching I've done in the last twenty years of a life that, I'm now reminded, has been, by any standard, unimagineably and entirely undeservedly blessed. So... well done!
Now, I realize I'm probably the only person here who didn't get it, but what was the basis for the drought joke? Does kidney cancer have some weird connection to being out of the game for a while that I just haven't heard of before, or what?
Wow, that sucks. But, as you say, very good that it was detected so early.
I think that the most Unfogged-appropriate way to respond to this news is to dedicate the rest of this thread to a discussion of whether Livestrong bracelets are gay.
On a more serious note, I felt terribly much better when I got to the point of your post that said you were going to live. I do hope that continues to be the case. But jeez did you scare me for a bit. Best wishes that your nurse is hott.
33: Tim, don't be so ghey. If you let Ogged take the higher ground on this, we'll never hear the end of it. It's nothing but "you'd better pretend to like talking about swimming, because I had cancer" and "don't call me sexist-- didn't you know I had cancer" and "could you pick up my bar tab-- you see, I had cancer" from here on out.
Best wishes ogged. We miss you around here, seriously, but the universe using cancer to get you to post again strikes me as a bit extreme. F#%king universe.
I'm confident all will be fine with you. Take care and keep us posted and condolences to your mother too.
This really is shocking. Glad it was caught early, hope you're doing all right.
You know how many people have have been following "ogged" with "(pbuh)" since he left? Do you think maybe some deity was listening but got confused about the "p"?
Shit, Ogged. Even IF the price were to be that you ever post again, just get fucking better. Soon.
What you created here helped me through some tough thinking time and quite alot of personal crap. I'd like to think that such a Geist would be around and were "being "well. So just get well soon, d'ya hear?
I reserve the right to say something halfway thoughtful and sensitive. Just wish I could think of what exactly to thoughtfully and sensitively say.
You'll get through this, Ogged. And then there'll be no living with you, because you'll be brandishing your lack of a kidney like some kind of miracles-of-modern-medicine trophy.
Don't forget to flirt with any and all doctors, nurses, technicians and suchlike who might conceivably be single or unattached or otherwise available. You never know.
Dude, you can't do this. Pretty soon, Mickey Kaus will want cancer, too. Then Reynolds, then Marshall--and before you know it cancer will be the next "Web 2.0!"
ogged: great to see you, bad to see your cancer. I think Wolfson put it appropriately when he said "Jesus fuck." But I am glad for your seven different ways of getting lucky, whatever ways those might be, and in perhaps more than one avenue. But yeah, Jesus Fucking Christ, and keep us updated if you can.

Fuck to oboe, ogged. Best wishes for a speedy recovery, and let us know if there's anything we can do. (Does FTD make gift baskets with philosophy texts and booby DVDs?)
Alas, it seems the medical establishment rarely intentionally makes a joke. This morning, on her very fancy monitor, the sweet but matter-of-fact radiologist walked me through the EKG results until...tada!...there was no denying that the squiggly lines on the screen did show that my mother did have a myocardial infarction upon seeing the gift basket you all sent. You fuckers gave my mother a heart attack!
Best wishes from a lurker, Ogged. I just spent time this Sunday with a friend who is doing very well since the successful treatment of his kidney cancer.
Oy. Fuck. Best wishes ogged.
