on-susan's-floor. Reading your post makes me grateful that I have avoided hospitals for a very long time. I have fractured a scaphoid, in my youth, and at a later date I required a meniscectomy, 2 totally unrelated injuries. Both, thankfully, some distance from major organs.

We had a very sad case here in Britain quite recently. A gentleman was admitted to hospital for a kidney transplant. Sadly the surgeon removed the healthy kidney. Having said that and reading your post, has not shaken my admiration for the medical profession. I am eternally thankful that people are prepared to enter the profession, otherwise where would we be?
