Hi Pratap,
Do you mean precious or precautious?
Before posting, I gave it a lot of thought.
Many say laughter is the best medicine. In the couple of light hearted conversations I've posted, I've explained, in the first posts, that I do not intend to make light of procedures or the effects of them.
This forum, although full of support, help and guidance, can by the very nature of the subject matter, become very serious and dour. In my opinion, people should have the opportunity to show, although many have lost their prostates, they haven't lost their sense of humour. Humour often helps you cope in stressful or frightening situations. I would estimate 99% of our conversations are serious. I don't think a little joviality, so long as it isn't offensive, does any harm. Basically both conversations have been based on a play on words and puns of song titles. Nothing more, nothing less.
To be offended by them, you'd have to be like my toothpaste, super sensitive.
However if you find them, somehow irreverent, you always have the option to push the report button. 🙂
