Would you undergo a surgical procedure that virtually guaranteed you a better cardiovascular and metabolic health plus an improvement in appearance, but had a 1 in 4 risk of causing chronic abdominal pain, and a 1 in 6 risk of needing surgery for other side effects within 10 years? Assume that you've had life-long health issues and this would basically cure you of those, and that many people have done it before you. Would you risk odds worse than Russian roulette to fix your health?
@thor Nope. I'd let nature take its course.
@Combaticus What's your rationale?
@thor I believe in Christ and eternity. I’d accept the sickness as a trial and hope that I could grow both spiritually and as someone with more grace. Doing so, I’d have to keep my eyes on the prize. Of course, this is theoretical for me. No telling what I’d actually do. I’m not very fond of going under the knife.
