Met with the heart surgeon !!

Hi guys. Met with the surgeon at Newcastle Freeman hospital the other day and discussed my future.
In the end I followed the surgeons advice and have put off having any operations for at least 2 years due to the fact that the odds on the procedure being a success were slim to say the least. For the gamblers amongst you ...would you place a bet on this ? Not making it off the operating table alive - 2000/1. Suffering major after effects such as a stroke - 200/1 and only a 60% success rate on the operation itself which would mean a follow up procedure in 2-3yrs time.
I explained the importance of not being a burden on the Canadian health system and in his opinion I am good to return to work, the only problem being the atrial fibrillation but this is being kept under control by drugs. I have been in touch with H&R to see if I still have a position with them and if I do then its full steam ahead with my residency application and back to work in the near future.








In the mean time I have been getting out and about. The photos are of Easby Abbey which is near Richmond N.Yorkshire and one of Richmond itself. Its a fantastic place and I will be back there again soon for some shots of the castle. The boats and shoes are from Royal Quays Marina, the shoes are something to do with modern art, the story is the girl was waiting for her man to return and when he didn't she jumped into the sea and ended her life. I presume the man killed himself when he did return and find out what had happened.
The tall ship is from Stockton as we won a radio competition to have a Sunday lunch cruise down the River Tees. The food was good but the sights were a little bit dull.







I have more pictures to post but need to sort them out first. Hopefully I will have news of whether I have a job to be returning to in Canada by the time I next post on here.
Happy Easter everbody
