That's the kind of thing that makes you not want to work so hard to stay healthy. I mean if you can just go from zero to dead in less than a week. I think I'll open a bottle of wine.
What I want to know is: how does one get a pancreas infection?  All of the possible causes are things I need to avoid, like hardcore.

Pancreatitis isn't really all that uncommon. I've known a few people who've gotten it before. Usually, it's from a blocked bile duct. It can also be directly related to diet. It's not a huge leap from pancreatitis to infection.

It sounds like your friend became septic, which is what killed my friend a year or so ago. All it takes is a small infection that isn't treated, or isn't treated correctly. And there are enough bacteria now that antibiotics can't touch that is's all kind of iffy whenever you get an infection.
Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

Yes, knowledge of medical stuff automatically makes everything that I say advice. :mellow:

Don't you have a door to knock on or something, or a mall to cruise for converts?

I think of Meri as a medicine woman. :wub:

Maybe he got Malthus' friend to give him a job.

There's a very sleepy girl sitting opposite me on the train. She just dozed off and her head dropped forward, head butting the window with an almighty bang. Heh.
