I am Wally's Liver


Now, I am not in any form or way whimpering or fussing about my Commander in chief. Just wanted to make a statement in case anything would happen to me. You don't know who this is because I'm never out in public but I am Wally's liver. I (cough)...excuse me, "we" have been in partnership ( if we call it that) for 28 and a half years. We grew up together and been through our up and downs but the best part was getting to know the other organs in his body. The brain is the cool one, while the heart inspires us all but the ones that are separate from us all are the testis. They hang out with a dick and always has an attitude and very moody. We've all been perfectly healthy for the first 18 years until he found and started using substances that abused us. Now I may be the first organ to come out to open up, but I speak for all of us when I say: We are very cohesive unit but we can only handle so much. I know he can have an addictive personality and loves to socialize, which gets him into trouble, but I don't think he notices the changes internally. For one, I used to weigh 2.5 lbs and now I am about 3 lbs. I also used to recover at a dashing pace but after all the hard work of filtering substances such as alcohol and... (Well let's just say a lot of alcohol) I am tired and weak. I don't mean to brag but I feel as if I have a very important role in this body such as making amino acid, storing vitamins and minerals, breaking down fat and much much more. I am burned out and to be honest, Wally doesn't help out by working out or eating right. I feel like a single mom sometimes. On the plus side, he has changed his drinking habits by switching to wine and liquor 3 times a week, instead of everyday beers and shots phase he had for 7 years. We've (organs) all collectively worked on a plan to slow down our working progress so he can gain some weight and start slowing down on drinking. We also thought we would shatter his confidence and he would stop drinking completely but that didn't work because that SOB's audacity and sheer will-power is on a whole different pedestal. All in all, we will never give up on this guy because after all he does takes care of us and means well. He believes we are far much stronger than the average body of a human being -That is inspiring.
