The worst thing about my own replumbing op was the pamphlet, handed to
me on discharge. It had "typical" progress, by week. Unfortunately SWMBO
took it literally and my inabillity to scale Everest after three weeks
was thought to be evidence it hadn't worked out properly. I explained in
vain that "typical" was based on averages ant that those averages
included people of my age and thirty year old athletes who'd developed
ticker problems. The consultant was much more sensible, taking the view
that you do what you're currently ready to tackle and go at your own pace.
