Basically yes, Olivant.

Of course i just used a year as a guide post. Of course some operations are done quicker than others depending on the severity of their problems. If you come in with a failing heart they will operate immediately,not send you away an tell you to come back in 6 months.

Well they are not doing that yet anyway rolleyes
