One of my friends had to have her appendix removed during Spring Break...

I read somewhere that during the stages of evolution, the appendix used to be used for digestion... and now some scientists think that eventually, people will be born without 'em.

yeah we have lots of things we dont need that can cause problems that many people like me have to get removed...like tonsils, adenoids (i got removed in 2001), and appendix...yeah dont really know why we need em

I think Cuna's right, I heard somewhere that eventually(although eventually can be a very hard time), humans will no longer be born with appendixes.

Man, that stinks...but at least you had the presence of mind to go to the doctor when you felt really ill. B-)

Good to see you up and posting. ;-D

Dont forget wisdom teeth and baby toes. I have no wisdom teeth and I have a friend whose baby toes are all bent underneath his foot. His doctor told him that humans only need 4 toes on each foot. Mine kind of bend towards my foot as well.
