A British surgeon has saved his long-lost friend's life by diagnosing his burst appendix online, thanks to popular social networking site 'Facebook', a media report said.
Peter Ball, 30, read the alert next day in Cheshire. His appendix was removed in an emergency op in Macclesfield before it could kill him. "We hadn't seen each other for ages. I owe him a drink. The doctors said it was bad, and shouldn't have been left for much longer," Ball was quoted as saying.
Rahul added: "It's a funny way to get back in touch, that's for sure."
