Title: Dont know if i should laugh or cry here
Post by Svenn on Feb 10^th, 2004, 6:53am

Finally got a letter from hospital about bypass

and it goes like this:

After evaluating the info your doc have given and the documentatiom from your past heartattack we have decided to put you on a HIGH PRIORITY LISST. You should get appointment within 4 mnths time "FOUR MONTHS"

Just wondering how long time you have to wait if you are on a low priority lisst

Well at least its a start,aint it?

Take care friends

Svenn

Oh my sweet viking, I hate you have to go through this, but I am glad you are not low priority. Because I would put you at the top of the list. :)

Gosh Svenn!

You'd think you were living in Canada or something! LMAO

When my dad was waiting for his bypass surgery, they kept him in the hospital. Apparently they get it done more quickly if the patient is hospitalized. He waited a month...which isn't bad at all!

Good luck to you and keep us posted.

hugs
Ann

Damn Svenn. Only a four month wait for by-pass surgery? They could build a highway in that amount of time. Good thing your condition isn't _serious_ or anything. Reckon somebody having a heart attack or cerebral hemorrhage would only have to wait 3-4 days, eh?

Strange brewski,
RJ

Ignore Happy, he's a legend in his own mind. A highway in 4 months, shit, (don't know who builds 'em where you are Jones) takes 'em 4 months to get the construction signs up before work actually starts around here anyhow. ;;D

Anyway Svenn, I would be relatively happy about that time period. Although "High Priority" kinda seems to be a moot label [smiley=huh.gif] Hang in there ......the cavalry is coming......uh, eventually? [smiley=huh.gif]

here's some more vibes headin yer way!

Svenn im sorry your on any list at all, but the good thing is I remembered all the good advice you gave me to make Wes rest, and im going to relay it to your wife...that pedastal is gonna seem mighty high lol ;;D

Oh and don't forget after the by-pass no illicit affairs, no rampant sex in strange places and no anal sex (we never did discover whether that was giving or receiving, so to be on the safe side i'd avoid both) ;)

In the UK on High Priority you'd wait a lot longer than 4 months, Wes waited nearly a year....

Vibes and hugs to you, oh and I reckon you should laugh like this..... [smiley=laugh.gif]

Catch up with you soon as i've finished decorating the house....

4 months is high priority? :o

One has to wonder why clusterheads are targets for so much crap and other maladies. How about one goddam thing at a time?

You'll do fine Svenn. You have to trust the sawbones I guess. Still, it seems ya never get a break. :(

Glad that they got you on this list. Sorry you need to wait the four months. Hopefully some data entry person will make an entry typo and put you at 4 weeks.
