Can't wait! It'll be just like home.
And this will differ from our current emergency rooms how?

A 32-year-old took the needle into his hands when he tired
of the wait at Sundsvall hospital in northern Sweden and
sewed up the cut in his leg himself. The man was later
reported to the police for his impro u handiwork.
"It took such a long time," the man told the local Sundsvall
Tidning daily.
The man incurred the deep cut when he sliced his leg on the
sharp edge of a kitchen stove while he was renovating at
home.
"I first went to the health clinic, but it was closed. So I
rang the medical help line and they told me that it
shouldn't be closed, so I went to emergency and sat there,"
the man named only as Jonas told the newspaper.
After an hour-long wait in a treatment room, he lost
patience and proceeded to sew up his own wound.
"They had set out a needle and thread and so I decided to
take the matter into my hands," he said.
But hospital staff were not as impressed by his initiative
and have reported the man on suspicion of arbitrary conduct
for having used hospital equipment without authorization.
While Jonas admitted to the newspaper that he has no prior
experience of sewing up himself he sought to play down the
fuss that his handiwork has caused, arguing that "through
the ages people have always sewn themselves up".
