Who here has had a gizzard(pieces or parts) removed?

[MajorChode]

Check in if you've had your tonsils, adenoids, gal bladder, appendix, spleen, or some other unnecessary piece or part removed.

Prizes to be announced later for most and/or most unusual part.

I'm still mostly intact, although I did have my gal bladder out last year.

[Richardo]

1. I'm whole.

Well, I had a small piece removed as a baby.

[Bunny]

4. Oh great! Start another circumcision flamewar, why dontcha?

Way to go, Richardo.





(do you miss that part?)

[Richardo]

6. I don't, no.

I don't think anyone else has missed it either

[suninvited]

8. lol

a circumcision flamewar?

I went home in May to visit my newborn grandson. On my second day there my daughter mentioned that she couldn't bathe him yet because of his circumcision.

Me : audible gasp. "His what"?
My daughter: "He is my baby, get over it".

Hey, at least she is breastfeeding !

2. I am pretty sure that i had my brain removed

but, it was done in the middle of the night by aliens, and didn't leave a scar.

3. I had my gal bladder out in '99

possibly TMI

I was waiting for my insurance to kick in, as I had just started a new job. I kept having serious attacks but couldn't afford treatment. It finally got so bad I ended up in the ER. The doc took me straight to surgery. When I came out of anesthesia, he said he didn't know how I survived as my gal bladder was gangrenous.

It sucks to be without insurance.

5. I must have had my gizzard out when I was very small

as I'm pretty sure I don't have one now.

7. gall bladder yanked back in 95, I think

My oldest son had his perfectly healthy appendix yanked at age 15 because the surgeon thought that might be where the watch battery he swallowed (did I mention male teenager?) had lodged. It wasn't. I recovered it in the "collection bucket" a day or so after he came home from the hospital.

Prizeworthy?

[MajorChode]

9. Perhaps, but lets see what else sinks to the bottom

[dysfunctional press]

10. my tonsils, all my teeth, and a cancerous tumor in my bladder...

things i've had removed.

[KG]

11. foreskin, tonsils - you know, the usual stuff.

[triguy46]

12. Unnecessary like a kidney? The diseased one was an extra, doing fine w/ one, thank you.

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

13. I've had a knee replaced (twice) and a toe lopped off.

Does that count?

[madinmaryland]

14. tonsils, adenoids, and hernia.

[triguy46]

15. Hey, you're cheating, a hernia is repaired, not removed! Teacher!!!!

[madinmaryland]

17. I not a doctor, but I have a six inch scar and I didn't stay at a Holiday Inn Express.

[triguy46]

18. Believe it or not....

There is an underground plastic surgery network that operates out of hotels. No kidding. Glad to hear you were not in that kinda deal. In OKC a doc killed his wife doing a hotel liposuction.

[madinmaryland]

19. Not that. I had the surgery when I was 10 months old.

[Strong Atheist]

16. * had his conscience and ethics removed early in life,

as did Cheney, and the whole BCE...

[surrealAmerican]

20. Just the "wisdom" teeth...

... wisdom is probably overrated anyway.
