Still have the legs for now. One should go during the next surgery and if all goes well with that surgery then I can get the other lopped off.

Oh I have to say this often, people can feel free to ask any type of questions they wish. If something is too personal I will just say so. Doubt any would be. However this does not always extend to business questions. Easier to answer questions than fill everyone in via email or guess at stuff that people are curious about.

Thankfully I did not do it earlier as they need one now.

Anyways one of the requirements to ever use that chair that others ran the sig donation thread for and people here donated their sigs for that was up for auction, was that I would need to amputate my left leg. Reason being you need to have the ability to bend both legs and my left leg has tightened up and will not bend enough. Could just of had the tendons and muscles cut but to tell you the truth. My legs are just useless heavy time bombs that could go off at any time. Not to mention they make me less mobile and fuck with my quality of life - so I wanted them gone.

Now they need the leg because back in May when I went missing. I was dealing with my 2nd type of cancer. I had already had and dealt with bladder cancer a couple years ago. Anyways when they were removing it they had to cut out a huge chunk from my ass. That was left open due to surgery complications. I wanted to deal with it back at Stanford, where I am. They need the leg to close up the hole with a flap operation. If that takes, they will then remove the other. If it fails they have a backup.

That is the reason for that. I do have other issues, many.
