"realised the call I had initially made to the hospital on Wednesday....Was to the wrong hospital"
Dennis, are you sure that the thing that went down in size was the tumor????, it might have been your brain.
But seriously, glad your well, I had some surgery recently, fortunately it all went ok, I know its routine for the hospital, but it is always unnerving at the other end of the scalpel.
Can we expect your post count to return to normal now?

I wonder if the Sydney pickup point has changed this month?
Nope - Im alive and kicking. In fact, went to hospital this morning and the surgeon examined me and said she didnt feel it was necessary to operate. The thing HAS gone down in size by itself - she was "amazed" and now thinks it will eventually go away on its own.
I felt like a bit of an impostor.
Funnier still, I have been flat out at work this week trying to get things in order before end of financial year and almost as an afterthought, rang the hospital last Wednesday to find out when I had to be in. They told me that they would ring on Thurs. after 3 to advise. Yesterday (Thurs) morning, got a call from the hospital (H):
H: Dennis, just a reminder call to bring the excess $250.
D: yeah, yeah, where am I on the list?
H: ring back after 2.
D: yesterday you told me you would ring me after 3, now you want me to ring you after 2. Dont you have a system there??? I think you should ring me.
H: we dont normally ring...patients ring
D: I rang yesterday and was told you would ring, and if i ring you at 5 past 2 and you cant tell me where I am on the list, Im going to be upset
H: OK, well ring you
D: Thankyou
H&D: Bye
They did call at about 1.30 as promised. Later on in the day I realised the call I had initially made to the hospital on Wednesday....

Just wanted to raise this to the surface again, remind everyone that Im having surgery this friday, and now that some of the beans are heading in my direction, its a good reason for you to pray that I get through this little nip n tuck.
If it sounds like Im fishing for sympathy...your right! ;D
If you dont make it, can I have some of your coffee toys...

Good one TG!
Nice to hear from you too Robusto...where have you been lately! Not many posts=happy Grimac?
Life is hectic, boat refits, laid low with illnesses for a fortnight, Grimac was decommissioned while I waited for my grinder parts.
All of us are slowly coming back to the boil so to speak. Ive been untethered from the study with my new wireless internet router.... nice to be by the fire, watch TV and be on line with the notebook on my lap.

But before this happens, he specialist was good enough to tell me she would "send me a quote" - I wonder if there will be a warranty period?
At least its not like our department to get anything repaired. Get three quotes and, well use the lowest one :.
If thats the case, you might have Dr. Nick Riviera doing your surgey for you .
Welcome back though old son, and I hope you get better soon.
