 Exactly six weeks and a day after being rushed to the Georgetown Public Hospital (GPH) with a broken leg, Charles Flavius was yesterday finally able to undergo corrective surgery.

Having been admitted as a patient on Tuesday, January 8th, at the West Demerara Regional Hospital Flavius, Flavius was originally scheduled to undergo surgery on Wednesday, January 9th. Due to difficulties at the hospital, however, he was unable to do so.

Yesterday, though in pain, Flavius related to Stabroek News that he was finally able to go under the knife.
