Aye.
Lest, we be careful what we ask for.
I know many men and women permanently walking around with urine catheter bags - even after "successful" operations to eliminate them.
... but yeah.

That won't be me GoldOxide. I have lived with a hole in my heart that you could stick your thumb through from birth and it was only closed in the last couple of years (I'm 62 in May). Consequently the right side of my heart is 50% enlarged which doesn't bode well for a long old life. I don't mind though and don't let it worry me. I'm just thankful that the three TIA's I had (which led to highlighting the fact that I had a hole) were not full strokes incapacitating me in a drastic way. I see that as an upside and what will be will be.
An interesting point - The heart surgeon told me about 20% of people are born with holes in their heart, it is very common, most just grow over in our teenage years and never need any attention.
