Would Canadian Ohip Pay
Should a perso run into complications after you get home and need medical assistance would OHIP pay for it or would you have to pay yourself because you went out of the country?

Stressful Day....but I Made It Through!
Good going PEvette! Today is day three of my preop and all I can think of since I came home from work is FOOD lol. I ate as much lettuce as a colony of bunnies for dinner so I know I can't be hungry. Drank two water and am feeling so tired. So keep up the good work. This is definitely a challenge. Tomorrow will be better

Hi tjmom Thanks for asking. I am doing miserably. I took your advice and made it thicker but I am still gagging. Headache due to no food ugg. I packed up my briefcase and headed home early. Figured I would work tonight. I did not sleep well last night as my stomach was growling. My husband had the nerve to sit down and watch tv last night with a huge bowl of chips. I could not believe that he did that. Was I pissed and I let him have it after I came out of the bedroom when I figured he was done lol. Funny now but it wasn't last night. So to answer your question I am doing lousy lol. Ugg- Who To Tell And Not Tell....
Too funny- Who To Tell And Not Tell....
