<DIV>``Two patients limp into two different Canadian clinics with the same
medical complaint. Both have trouble walking and are in pain.<BR><BR>The first
patient is examined within the hour, x-rayed the same day and has a time booked
for surgery the next week. <BR><BR>The second patient sees the family doctor
after waiting three weeks for an appointment, then waits another 20 weeks to see
a specialist, then gets an x-ray and then his surgery is scheduled for 6 months
from initial exam. `</DIV>

<DIV>We in Calgary have one open 24 hours a day a hospital but of course it's
expensive but well worth it. I have no idea why they get sick on the
weekend.</DIV>
<DIV>And to add to that during christmas holidays I know of a dog who got
sick in Victoria (they had the money too) and died cuz Christmas holidays cuz
vet on extended holidays. She died and shouldn't have.</DIV>
<DIV>I get sick during holidays and could I find a good doctor -
finally gave up and resorted to hospital. I dread the christmas holidays for
this reason.</DIV>
<DIV>Guess that's what you do.</DIV>
<DIV>P.S. Could the lady who organized the Calgary Basset Waddle contact
me online? It's about the basset patent bag I had at the Waddle a lady was
admiring? Need her name. She was taking videos? And she took closeups of Miss
Becky</DIV>
