The dealio here is that Tom's Knee is damn near the property of the New England Patriots, so with that in mind Tom can have surgery anywhere in the world that he wants to have surgery, but there has to be an agreement with the club on the Doctor - and of course the club and the doc's will then share in all info regarding his knee in regards to Surgery/Rehab and follow up.
I guess what I'm saying is this, while that's a sad story - I'm willing to bet that the daily to weekly prodding that Tom's knee is getting and the sharing of information between experts will keep anything bad from happening and is light years past the exposure that Gerard knee got post surgery.
Ya know? Or am I just pissing in the wind trying to make people feel better about this.
You're right.
But this is the greatest athlete I've ever had the pleasure to watch play for one of my favorite teams.

It's nasty. Looking back and knowing what we do now I'm amazed at how haphazard the hospital staff that was treating my wife. She was isolated and the door posted. Masks, scrubbing and gloves required before entering and exiting, equipment (stethoscopes, thermometer, blood pressure equipement, etc.) was supposed to stay in that room and used only on her. Within 2 days of her being there, equipment started leaving, masks and gloves weren't always used. It's no wonder to me that there's a MRSA outbreak in the hospitals.
I went through this after my son was born. Not fun.
Yeah - its ironic but a hospital is the LAST place you want to have surgery.
I'm kidding of course but only partly. This is one of many reasons why a lot of Moms are having babies at home these days - many families research the risks and see the chance of having a complication at home as less of a risk than getting a serious infection in the hospital.

Strange but true.
OT but US hospitals have an increasing risk of post op infection. A dirty little seret. Of course when healthcare is Nationalized, all our problems will be solved. Just wait in line.

We have socialized health care. It's top notch, non-discriminatory and don't believe the lies, the wait times aren't that bad.

First of all, if CBC says it, better get a second opinion. Secondly, I live in Ontario. They can quote median wait times but they're certainly not proper averages.
I have never, nor has anyone I know, waited more than two weeks to see a specialist. Moreover, there is NEVER a denial of care or insurance rejection.
My sister in law is a nurse in two hospitals in Detroit and from seeing both sides, I wouldn't swap ya health systems if you threw in a busload of Pats cheerleaders.
