Hello all; As I indicated in my last posting, I had developed what appeared to be a hernia. This has now been confirmed, and the w a i t i n g starts again. I have another medical with a doctor next week, however it will be months before I have the surgery....unless there is a cancellation, and I can get in. As I understand the system, there are several factors in play when operating room time is allotted. One is the hours required for specific types of surgery. For example, if a hernia surgery is allotted three hours, then it would need to be a three hour type surgery cancellation for them to schedule a hernia surgery.
My granddaughter and her boyfriend that live in Calgary recently cancelled their wedding, so that is off the table.
As many know, Canada is now into a General Election for April 28. I have been asked by Elections Canada to apply to work for them, as I have done election work many times before. I had actually applied almost three months ago when they opened a site for applications. I received an acknowledgement at the time, however, that application appears to have been lost, as I received a new request two days ago. I sent in a new application. I have left messages at the local Riding office here on Draper avenue, but so far, no calls with a job offer.
Take care, and I will update you when I have an idea of when I will be able to travel again.
