I was supposed to be on vacation this week, and I had planned to write about the American Primaries and all that Jazz while in Seoul, but unfortunately, I spent the last few days in Seoul National Universities’ hospital. I was unfortunate enough to catch Myocarditis, and was experiencing some rather painful heart problems. Not only was this the first time I had any prolonged stay in a hospital, but it was also the first time I had been to one outside of my country of origin. When I consider what the last few days and operations would have cost me in the States, it boggles my mind a bit. To think: not all developed countries pay the same ridiculous prices for medical care that we do?

Right, now you can look "socialised medicine" in the face and realise that it's not the one-size-fits-all absurd scare campaign that everyone but the far left of your country's politics thinks it is.
Take care homeboy and get well soon!
Get well soon!
Regarding cost of medicine and healthcare, I've always been in favor of universal health care (same goes for education).
sorry to hear about your health worries
I hope that you get better soon :)
Thank you everyone. Other than actually saving my life, I am thankful to have gone through the medical system in another country.
OMG, Rolan, it sounds real frightening. You were quite economical with words on the subject - hope you came through fine.
All the best and take care!
