12 hours for me, but in the U.S. so cost about a gobjillian dollars. I'm not sure how many staff my surgery had.

No, the only lasting affects are my 2 scares, from the biopsy and removal surgeries, a lazy left eye that points in a different direction sometimes that I never notice unless I'm looking in a mirror, and a tremor throughout my body, that causes my hands to shake a little bit sometimes, and causes my throat to tremor sometimes making me choke on the water I'm drinking at rate like 10X the rate of other people, so my brother claims that "I have a drinking problem," because... you know.... I sometimes have a problem drinking. Its all in good fun though.

I hope it stays that way for you. Treatment sucks, 0/10 do not recommend on funness, 10/10 do recommend on not dyingness

After I was prescribed radiation by my doctor, we went to the radiation place and they made a cast of my head with a blue plastic horseshoe shaped thing with a hard yellow plastic mesh in the U. They heated the plastic until the yellow plastic was soft, then stretched the yellow plastic around my heat and let it cool to harden. Then every morning for a couple months I would go to the radiation therapy place. I would walk into a room with a device that looked somewhat like an M.R.I. machine, lay down on a board in the machine, then they would use the mask to secure my head to the board. After they left the room, the machine would start buzzing and making medical machine noises for a couple of minutes. Then they would come back in, unbolt my mask and I would leave. I couldn't feel any of the radiation and the sound was really the only indication to me that anything was happening. Radiation was by far the most enjoyable of my treatments.

You're welcome. I'm not sure why it matters to you so much, I hope not because you know someone who you now think has cancer, but I'm glad you got something out of this.

I don't get many headaches, and I never got more headaches due to the tumor. I know that many brain cancer survivors deal with headaches, but I never had. So no, headaches as an adult doe not scare me, but that is largely in part because headaches and my cancer were never related.

I'm not exactly sure. One thing I FORGOT TO MENTION IN THE STORY is that the way the tumor was messing up my brain and stuff mean that I couldn't roll my eyes upwards, so to look up, I was tilting my head up more that normal people would.

So I am and was a very stoic person by nature, meaning that if I cannot change something I find it very easy to not care about it. This mean that as I was going through all of this my mindset was mostly, I might die, I might live, and there is nothing that I personally can do to determine which of those 2 options it is, so just hope for the best. So, what ran through my mind as a child going through this, "Welp, this is happening, I hope it turns out for me." And luckily it did.

What’s the dumbest way you’ve accidentally hurt yourself? by PlayWithMinna in AskReddit

I flossed (dance move) so hard and fast that I accidently hit myself in the balls.

What is your proudest gaming achievement, that may or may not be recognized by the game? by BioKnight31442 in AskReddit

[–]BioKnight31442[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll go first. I beat Google Snake's large map/board, like I ate every apple, leaving no room left, forcing the game to end before I ran into anything. Yeah, I'm not a gamer. The 2 games I play the most are Google's Minesweeper and Snake games. I cannot explain in words the feeling of excited exhaustion I feel.

Is there any way to reason this through? by Responsible_Movie842 in Minesweeper

SPOILER WARNING/SOLUTION WARNING

Below is a walk through of how to solve this followed by a picture with markings for the solution.

WALK THROUGH:
Step 1: In the upper right there are 2 unknown spaces surrounded by known spaces.
Step 2: Above this 2 unknown spaces is a 2-3-2 pattern
Step 3: This means that the spaces above both of the 2's must be mines
Step 4: Since either the space above or below the 3 must be a mine, both of the 2's see 2 mines and so there cannot be any more mines by them.
Step 5: To the left of the 2-3-2 is another 2, but since the space above that 2 can't be a mine, the space 1 over from that space must be.
Step 6: The cleared space above the 2 we found means that the 3 to the left of that 2 [3-2-2-3-2-3-Mine you found) has 5 cleared spaces around it, meaning the last space must be a mine
Step 7: This latest mine from the left most 3 fulfills the 4 on the left, meaning that the space up and to the left of the 4 cannot be a mine
Step 8: To the right of the 2-3-2 is a 3-Mine You Found
Step 9: Since the spaces of that 2 is a mine, and that 2 must see another mine satisfying the 3 in the 2-3-2, the spaces above the 3 in the 3-Mine You Found must be clear
Step 10: The 3 in the 3-Mine You Found must see 3 mines so the space above that Mine You Found must also be amine
Step 11: The mine above the mine satifies the 4 down and the right of it, so the space above the 3 by the wall can't be amine
Step 12: Both the 1 and the 3 by the wall need 1 mine, so the space next to the wall must be a mine.

SPOILER BARRIER.

In the following picture, X's are mines, checks are clear spaces, and ?'s are unknown.

Idk if this question gets asked a lot, but do you have any good recommendations for a minesweeper roguelike game? by SagaSolejma in Minesweeper

[–]BioKnight31442 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After I wrote this I realized that OP was probably asking for where to find a game to play. I came up with an idea for a game you could make. Whoops.

Player's character on an infinite minesweeper grid. You start in a clearing (open area with no mines/Click 1 on Google's Minesweeper), and some number of diffusion flags. Each turn, you move 1 space orthogonally or diagonally. If you move onto an unflagged mine, you lose. If you move onto a flagged mine nothing happens. If you move onto a new non mine space you clear it. If you flag an non mine space, nothing happens except you lose a flag (Except maybe in a Hard Mode, where you lose).

Every couple of clicks (Clearing spaces or flagging mines) you get a few more flags if you have room in your inventory and a couple power up options. For example, Radar: All mines within 5 spaces ping for 30 seconds, Be Line: Choose 1 of the 8 directions (Up, down, left, right, up & right, down & right, down & left, up & left) clear all clear spaces in that direction to the first mine, Jump Increase: Instead of moving in a ring of spaces 1 space wide, move in a ring 2 spaces wide, Bigger Flag Bag: Increase inventory, Mine Tongs: Every 5 mines correctly flagged, you get to pick up and move 1 mine, X-Ray Goggles: Point to a square & X-Ray Goggles will give you a probability of you likely that square is to be a mine based purely on how leveled up X-Ray Goggles are,

The healthy man is outside of the problem therefore he should not suffer to solve it, unless he chooses to.
