NB: a major private hospital in Brisbane refused the same mother-in-law because of her "anaesthetic risk". Turns out from the records they grudgingly handed over to P.A that they had totally stuffed up a previous surgery's anaesthetic in any case. Her "risk" was actually their own mistake. Upon review by P.A it was straightforward to proceed.

Many private hospitals decline some surgeries because they are liable for mistakes. The same surgeries are routine at P.A and routinely successful. My partner is a surgical nurse at P.A now and sees no reason to leave, there being no more competent hospital in queensland.

Again, good luck.

I've got a prescription for all you hypochondriacs:

Take two teaspoons of cement with your breakfast cereal and HARDEN THE FCUK UP.

Worse things happen at sea.

What a nasty thing to say! Wait until you get sick Toni Lavis. I bet it will be all "Oh God why me!" and "What did I do to deserve this!" and "I'll give away all my money to get back my health!". Yes Toni Lavis, It's always the nastiest people who feel the pain the most.
