Michael concurred with the opinion of the sports science doctors and was happy to open me up and get stuck into my FAI issues. Unfortunately it looks like he is moving his operations to Hobart and therefore I'd be expected to fly to Hobart, get a hip done, stay a night, fly back to Melbourne then drive home to Ballarat. Then I'd repeat that a week later. THEN I'd repeat that 4 weeks later for a post-op consultation. I'm not so keen and I wish I had have known about this earlier.
This saga just keeps on keeping on.....
On the plus side, Tom had surgery to remove some teeth a couple of days before so I took him with me down to Melbourne for a Ferris Bueler's day off. We visited Collingwood FC training, had a tour of the MCG and went to the National Sports Museum before my appointment. We had a great day together.
