Gather round the fire, young’uns, and I’ll tell you a horror story.

It’s the tale of an uninsured Australian tourist who ended up in an American ICU with bacterial endocarditis, and the country GP who provided the most recent healthcare.

It’s the long weekend, and you’re at the theatre. Not just any theatre, but your local amateur theatre production group, where you and your friends volunteer way too much of your time bringing a group of enthusiastic thespians together to perform for your community.
