Wednesday, December 12, 2007 at 7:18 AM For those of you who still listen to the accursed Stryker incarnation of this show…
I called last night regarding a brain tumor. While Drew and I were continually talking over each other and my story was somewhat contorted (I still have the tumor, and it’s primarily frontal lobe as opposed to temporal…incidental really since both can cause the same reaction, my doc has indicated that there may be some temporal problems as well, and the former was my predominant reason for calling), and the advice provided was starkly different from anything I’d heard from my so-called experts who have a mammoth case file of medical history at their beck and call…and for once it was concrete and actually made sense! I know some of the producers and screeners read these threads and I wish to express to them my sincerest gratitude for the service their program provides the young adult community…even if it isn’t funny anymore. I’m now charged with renewed vigor to berate my docs into removing this fucking thing while my brain is still relatively plastic and responsive to behavioral therapies, and to pursue those therapies in earnest once that process is complete. While I wholeheartedly disagree with Dr. Pinsky’s primarily medicinal approach to most problems I totally respect his exhaustive knowledge, both experiential and literary, and his ability to synthesize and convey that knowledge in an understandable way. But for God’s sake how much fucking money does Infinity have to shell out to get DAG to replace Stryker?
