"Delayed surgery"

About: St George Hospital / Emergency Department

(as a relative),

My spouse was admitted in the morning to emergency at hospital because of acute stomach pain, they ran a blood test. They found their appendix is going to burst, they were meant to operate in the afternoon, kept dragging to evening, then the following morning the surgeon just came in and said they must delay again. They keep giving us false hope.

They’re not sure when it will be done. My spouse has so much anxiety and stress. They keep delaying, delaying, delaying. I have not been well recently, and I have to stay here now so my child has to stay home alone. It is so frustrating. They always saying there is emergencies.
