In the clear

Great news - after a successful operation, Jonty's pathology reports have come back with the best possible news. True to form, he's written about it beautifully:

It’s amazing how many times you can read even the most densely incomprehensible phrases when their conclusion is that you appear to have successfully been freed of a potentially life-threatening disease.

My wife Maxine, notwithstanding that she is a former health reporter, was as scuppered at the medical detail as I was, but that didn’t stop our joyous tug of war over the two pages. Never have the words: “nil”, “none” and “not found” been so gratefully received.

If you haven't already, I highly recommend you check out Jonty's irregular series A Pain In The Arse for Crikey's health blog Croakey.
