Many years, nay decades ago.
When I was at school, We had an a history teacher who went by the nickname of Ernie Lump due to an extremely large growth on the back of his neck. He was feared by all the students and some of the teachers. As a homage to that teacher I have named the Lump on my Liver “Ernie”
Hopefully like the original Ernie, the Lump will be removed and go on to live a full life,
Ernie that is, not the Lump. BTW he never lost his nickname he just became Ernie Lump-less.
