Last December, my mother had a heart failure. Ambulance brought her to Hotel-Dieu hospital. The doctor told us to prepare for her to die ( she is 85 ) . They still said they wanted to try to save her, so morphine and called in a team to operate ( 2:00 AM ). Within 30 minutes, she was in the OR with anasthesist, nurses, 2 surgeons, etc ... They unblocked 2 arteries with a type of balloon ( they gave us pictures of it afterwards ). She was then intensive care for a week ( docs, nurses, test, etc ..) then a full 6 weeks.
Today, she is having diner with the kids tomorrow to celebrate the birthday of my father ( 84 , and treated for colon cancer).
This treatment in the US would have wiped out the million they have in cash ...
Oups, I forgot WTF you were saying.
