Ok, nothing these days seems to work any longer,
Last week I had a second cataract surgery, and now have been told that both knees need replacing.
Neither of these operations could be cheap, and I am very conscious of the limited health resources.
I am now wondering whether I should just grin and bear it and learn to live with the pain or get on a waiting list to have the surgery. There are very scare resources and at age 70 I wonder if I am wasting these when they could be put to better use for younger people and particularly children who can go on and have a productive life and contribute financialy for a long period.
What are your thoughts? Should there be an age when such surgery is limited, or should everyone be able to access the resources?
