I was in an accident today - I am scheduled for surgery tomorrow. My left leg is broken in 2 places and I don't think I will be discharged they said they need to monitor for infections.
Sorry to hear about that. That sucks. Just give the CFA Institute a ring and explain your situation. They'll grant you some compassion. Just keep your finger on the morphine drip.
You may also want to talk to your doctor about it. Make sure he knows that there is a huge cost to your not being discharged by Saturday.
Only a doctor can truly evaluate the risk. They are also trained to make trade-offs between risks and 'quality of life'. (here I am getting all CFA-y about medical treatment).
PS: I realized the anti-CFA-ness about using the phrase CFA to form other pseudo-words.
hang in there. it's only a test. your health and recovery are much more important.
been there before so kind of know what your going through. it sucks, but you will recover.
We always have options in life and fortunately in this case it won't matter much whether u attempt this saturday-exam or not.. you can always clear it in Dec-09 and join us for June-10. At the end, it's all the same.
Sounds like if you have doctor's notes, x-rays and proofs, etc., you'll get your deferral granted. Unless I hurt my head or broke my right hand, I probably will go take the exam haha
Aah crap, of the things that could happen. Glad to here it is only your leg and not worse. Don't worry about it to much, pretty sure CFAI will let you move the exam date to Dec 09.
CFA is a year 3 - 4 year journey so it is not the end of the world. Best of luck and remember to let us know how you are sometime next week.
