Yay: my mum got her eye surgery moved forward after much pressure

Nay: it's on Anzac Day and my aunt can't go and flights are stupidly expensive but at least my aunt has offered to chip in.

Looks like I might be doing a week back in the equatorial concrete jungle soup. Maybe a good opportunity to focus on writing uni stuff... Shame it's my favourite time of the year in melbs but honestly all that is irrelevant when my mum's eyes are at stake.

Yes and I won't lie, what happened to your mum definitely added fuel to the fire for me in urging my mum to take the private option and get it done asap. So thank you for sharing your experiences!
