Re: Larry & health care systems

[Guest guest]

I sure hope the best for Larry and his wife, and I hope that the

system in Italy is better than it is here in Canada, at least in

Toronto. I've only been living here for 2 years, but the medical

system scares me. I have a friend here who had a hysterectomy because

she had a tumor back in the spring. In July, the doctors found

another tumor, so at the end of August, she had an appointment with

the doctor to assess the situation, and she had a surgery scheduled

for the end of September to remove the tumor. However, the doctor

" lost " his surgery time, so now her surgery is postponed until

November. This tumor was described as " fast-growing " and it takes 4

months to get to surgery (assuming the doctor doesn't lose his surgery

time again). And I have heard many other stories (to me, horror

stories) from people at church. Oh, and one of the politicians up

here just went to California for cancer treatment. Makes one wonder.
