First on the list

nh_user_754498 · June 29, 2015, 9:51am

Well I've had the call, got to be at the hospital at 6.30am tomorrow and am FIRST on the list. My bag is packed and I'm feeling ok. I have appreciated the discussions on this forum so far and look forward to being able to help someone else be so reassured and informed as I am feeling one day.

I'll be back!!

Good Luck!X

Thanks. I waited about 9 weeks. I was put on the 'admission within 90 days' list because I was almost completely immobile and taking heavy pain medication. Feel very fortunate to have been done so quick. Average wait here is 12 months.
