I know this might not be important to Ironworks, but I just have to tell everyone because I'm so happy about it
At the beginning of May this year I found out that I had gall stones and infected gall bladder, it may not seem life threatening but it was. Anyways the doctor told me that I don't get my opperation in 18 months then I might pass on.
You see in Australia there is a government health system and a private health system, with the private health system you get the opperation straight away and you have to pay for it, with the government health system you go on a waiting list and don't have to pay for the opperation.
So in May I was put on the list, and today I got a phone call from the hospital to see a specialist about my gall bladder, and that means I'll be getting my opperation very soon!!! Yippee for me!!!!

Hey that IS great news, I would hate to see/hear of a fellow IronWorker passing on, especially if they are Australian [img]tongue.gif[/img] So good luck with the specialist and tell us when the operation is [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

Ouch, my sister just had her gall bladder removed -- it wasn't cool, but compared to some surgeries it wasn't overly bad.

She's only got two tiny scars from it, too; apparently they put a little camera in one hole & squished / pulled the thing out through the other!

It's not the best news ever -

The best will be when you wake up afterwards and you hear 'Hello Lauren'. Good luck hunny, let us know how it goes [img]smile.gif[/img]
