    Oh you, you Brits... hee hee. I guess there are pro's and con's to it. I am battling a bunch of Doctor bill today, some have gone as far as collection because I couldn't do anything about them except for ignore them till our situation got better. Having four kids and a husband, I haven't even dared step foot in an office to get myself healthy. Now that we don't have to make two house payments, we will beable to get them taken care of. I guess you can say that sometimes I wish I had your way of life, but if I would definitely want to choose my own doctor and get in when I needed to. Hugs to you. I am off to make more calls, in which I think Synnen would be better at it.

    Oh we have our own dr surgery assigned to the area you live in they deal with the every day stuff you walk in you see them you walk out they refer you to the hospital and then its just a waiting game. We still pay for our prescriptions that's 7 pounds per item so around 14 dollars a item but we don't pay for the dr's time.
    We have the choice of private medical insurance and then you can go private the waiting times are better but you still see the same doctors lol.

    Ahahahahah... thanks, not that I know I feel a little smarter.
    I wish I did not have to pay all of these bills... ARRRRGGGG!
    My husband is completely stressed out and I thought selling the house and getting some stuff paid would help him, for some reason it has done the opposite and I am struggling with all of these things happening around me. I will not smoke though. I mean more emotional things, I am quite worried about him. I will support him any way I can and love him through it I guess. Hugs, Start

    Laura, I' sorry to hear that. Colitis is hard to deal with and painful. The hemorroids are from the inflammation of the colon. I wish I could comfort you in some way. My prayers are with you.
    Syn, you're a remarkable woman. She should've confirmed the appt before taking off from work. It's not your fault she didn't do what she needed to do. People alwaqys take their own stupidity out on others. Hence the more stupid they are the louder they yell. You are a goddess with grace under fire.
    All heart, that's a cute pic of the cat. I agree with syn, that he probably got even with the bonehead. It looks like a citrus fruit bigger than a grapefruit. I can't recall the name of it.
    Start, I'm glad you spoke with your mother in law and aired your feelings. I think it's always good to talk and get thibngs out in the open if you can. I hope it all works out for you and the better.
    Alka, I'm glad you had a great weekend. I've never been to gatlinburg but I hear it's nice.

    I hate to cut this short but my felines are sooo hungery they are eatting the computor.
