About fourteen weeks ago, I came to A&E with a broken elbow. I arrived there at roughly half five. Waited four hours to be told I had to stay overnight and to have surgery in the morning. Did not have surgery that day, and was released, to come back at seven for surgery at nine o'clock. Elbow unable to move, but half an hour car ride home... came back next day, anticipating surgery, but none given until midday... however, the surgeon did an amazing job. I am fully recovered and the nurses were very considerate. Also, during this whole thing, I was told I had a problem with my heart... innocent heart murmur... and Friday night at midnight was told to have more xrays on my arm.... so amazing recovery, but that was one hellish weekend. Thank you to nurses at ward D34.
