Stories from work #1

Garden Work


82-year old patient presents himself with pain in the right hip area, spreading to his right thigh and to the sacroiliac joint.

Patient tells me he injured himself while working in his garden.

When I think I'm done with the medical history, the patient leans forward and whispers "I can tell you, but don't tell the doctor. It wasn't really garden work you know. I made love to my wife and sometimes you injure yourself during love making [smirks]"

Patient was 82-years old, 45 years married.

I will not forget the glow in his eyes when spoke of his wife and the smirk on his face when he told the doctor about his garden work.

Needless to say this made my day.

When I left the treatment room I thought "Goddammit - when I'm 82, I wanna be like this guy."


This was 3 months ago. Patient has, since then, received medication, physical therapy and intraarticular injections. Patient has no symptoms anymore.

bebe, Jaaaaasper, I've been really busy I'll get a bit more involved again but I won't be doing any regular shows anymore. I'm just a fan now.

That man really is kick ass. He sent a card from a holiday with his wife. They did a bicycle tour through 2 countries (1500 kilometers) and slept in a tent for most of the time. He's 82!

Haha, sweet story.

On the upside, sounds like a simple manipulation to his SI joint by a physical therapist or chiropractor would fix his problem.....

Did you go to Krefeld in the end? How was it?

Yeah I did it was pretty overwhelming at the beginning but pretty good overall

When I got there it took me half an hour to gather myself and try asking people for directions haha, I also missed entire first day but 1 game because I wanted to meet with the Aussie guy and got sick i the process because of the food I brought with me. We met on the second day, also with 2 German guys he brought to the hotel room for the night. For 2 nights 3 of us slept in 1 bed :D

I didn't know so many players are smokers.

Later I met Zatic and Pholon, we were wondering with Pholon what happened to you that you vanished from TL so suddenly and completely, he also wanted to meet you irl.

I overestimated the amount of beer to bring with me, it was like 25 beers. Drunk 2/3 of that

It sounds like a great trip overall. There are quite a few smokers among the SC2 players. It's nice though, I met Ret during a smoking break at WCS NL/BE Nationals in Cologne.

So you brought too much beer? I didn't know that was possible.

I had to set priorities back then. I moved, changed career etc. so I didn't have time to commit to SC2. It wasn't easy to leave it all behind for half a year, especially because I wanted to go to HSC with you guys. I'm glad you met Pholon. He's a great guy. I met him at WCS.

I'm definitely up for going to some tournaments in the future. Things have settled down a little bit.

The thing about beer is I never get smashed with alcohol or drink till I want to puke and it appeared 3-4 beers were my limit at the time while I was still able to follow what was going on around. I'm not a heavy drinker

Yeah Pholon's really great

Talking about tournaments there is IEM Katowice coming up in Poland and Polish netwars.pl community is taking quite a preparations to make the cheering great there but I'm not coming this time, because except from some theorycrafting I'm taking a break from SC2 until HotS comes out. I'm pretty hard into anime at the moment.
Also just days after IEM I'm going skiing in Italy and my family's financial situation is getting pretty complicated so I can't afford another trip this time.
There will be more opportunities both in Poland and EU to go to

Katowice was great. Didn't go because my schedule simply doesn't allow that at the moment.
I really want to go to another tournament this summer. It's a whole different story being at an event, meeting people, players etc., compared to watching at home.
