Strange things happen for a reason sometimes!
One of my mates dad's a few year ago got into a bit of a punch up, had a few beers and what not. He got caught with a right smack to the kidneys, went to get it checked out a couple of days later, turns out he was in the early stages of kidney cancer but the punch had somehow killed it off.
