So sorry to hear this Cissy as we build ourselves up and prepare ourselves mentally only to be let down, it happed once with me a few years ago but i only had to wait two days . The surgeons and consultants do get upset as it must be just as bad for them to let patients down. Fingers crossed for a speedy new date, best wishes.

Its sometimes not easy but its worth it !
Oh Cissy, I'm so disappointed for your both. I hope they can find a way round this as soon as possible.
The impact of this pandemic is so desperately awful for people in dire straits.
