Ugh, it was too good to be true.

Hospital just called; my operation's been postponed, and they can't even tell me the new date.

I'm so fucking over this bullshit, at every stage in this process something has gone wrong, from failed operations to delays to getting lost in the system. I've been waiting more than SEVEN MONTHS now to have this cancer removed. 

At this point it really feels like I'm going to fucking die waiting.

Sorry to hear that. I'm guessing they are just too overwhelmed with COVID-19 patients and don't want to spread it to people who don't have it. I'm sure once things calm down you will be able to have your surgery. 

Things actually haven't gotten too bad yet here in terms of COVID-19 cases, but I think what's happened is they are trying to force through as many upcoming surgeries as possible ahead of a predicted influx of COVID patients, and I must've been pushed down the list as less urgent.

My op was scheduled for the 14th, they say they'll try and fit me in the following week but can't make any promises yet.
