This is what socialized medicine looks like. Swan-kay!
Nathan's poor sister, Emma, has not one member of her family currently residing there, but two. Her husband, Ryan got a mysterious leg infection on Christmas Eve and has had to have surgery to remove it and the surrounding tissue. They have left the wound open to keep an eye on whether it comes back. I, who have a stomach of talc rather than iron, find the thought of this rather gruesome. Also, Ryan's daughter Gabbie (my beloved niece) had surgery today to remove an infected tooth. When we spoke to Ryan and Emma yesterday Emma sounded shattered. I send my sympathies, though, to the staff at the hospital because Emma and Ryan bored is not a good thing. I am picturing the scene from Jurassic Park with the kids in the kitchen cornered by the raptor. My advice - run like heck and don't forget the ladle!

I see that you have the grasp of the situation! Ryan lying bored in bed making sarcastic remarks while I corner the nurses and shout at them until they send a doctor to see him and provide food that is actually edible and not pre-chewed. Ahhh, that really is what socialised medical care looks like!
thanks for the sympathy!
Love from Emma
Please send on our best wishes to Emma, Ryan and Gabby. We are so sorry for their troubles.
However, on a lighter note-love your new car.
I love you guys.
I'm so jealous of your new car!!! Have fun in it!
I sorry your family is so under the weather. Here's to hoping they feel better soon.
