READING about hospital operations being cancelled, in September 2012 I was booked for a small eye operation, since then it’s been cancelled six times.

My family take time off work to look after my husband who suffers from senile dementia. My daughter travels from Merseyside – they cancel at the last minute.

I have given up, don’t want to bother but my family insist my operation must go ahead (sometime).
