I've just had a short spell in hospital for a heart op and shared the pre-op waiting area with 3 others. Open ward and each of us were able to hear the discussions between patients and doctors/nurses. In summary they were
- mid 50s man, in for a heart bypass, spoke OK english but had a family member to help with translate conversation with Dr
- mid 60s man - in to have new stent fitted as previous one blocked - quite overweight, admitted to smoking and enjoying chinese takeaways
- mid 20s man, has congenital heart condition, having ablation to fix an arrhythmia
