Still in ED

Sitting around all day waiting for surgery

[Babs]

Oh dear. I suppose the only entertainment is can you read the letters on the eye chart off in the distance.

[Kathy A]

@onewing I think I looked at that eye chart a million times. I was stuck there fasting in that chair for 30 hours

[Babs]

@kjarn Oh no, why were you there so long?

[Kathy A]

@onewing they had no beds and they were trying to arrange a time in theatre. i ended up going home about 7pm on day two then having the op at private hospital the next day

[Valerie Chesney]

What a long, long day...& no surgery...thinking of you.

[Kathy A]

@happysnaps that was a terrible experience. I felt like I was living in a third world country, 30 hours of no food, no sleep, lots of pain and sitting in a chair.

[Pam Knowler]

OMG what an awful experience for you! So it’s not just in the UK that these long waits happen!

[Lisa Pouncy]

Oh no! I hope the surgery went well xx

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Sounds like the wait was even more painful than the actual broken bone.
