    You're walking past the check-in desks which is presumably still open (>60min before dep), and yet worried about making the flight! Waiting for your next reveal episode.

    General Medical issues thread

    Interesting, so I looked up 12 month survival rates for St. Vincent Sydney. Non-frail 95%, frail 74%. Send me there. Prince Charles (with their "medically suitable" restrictions so presumably non-frail) 79%. Don't send me there. I see why an administrator wouldn't want frail patients messing up...
